Insights
The launch of the NextDent® 300 MultiJet 3D printer marks a pivotal advancement in dental manufacturing efficiency. The system's ability to produce 15 complete denture arches in just 9 hours represents a significant breakthrough in production speed, potentially reducing laboratory turnaround times by 40-60% compared to traditional methods. This efficiency gain directly addresses one of the dental industry's major bottlenecks - production time and scalability.
The multi-material printing capability, combined with the newly developed NextDent® Jet Teeth and NextDent® Jet Base materials, creates a compelling competitive moat. The elimination of post-curing steps and the FDA clearance for the complete workflow solution significantly reduces regulatory barriers for adoption. This integrated approach positions 3D Systems advantageously against competitors who typically offer piecemeal solutions.
The expansion into night guards and direct-printed aligners is strategically timed to capitalize on growing market segments. With an estimated $14.6 billion market by 2032, the company's ability to currently facilitate 1 million daily aligner productions demonstrates both scalability and market validation. The night guard market represents a particularly lucrative opportunity, driven by the increasing prevalence of bruxism and sleep apnea treatments.
3D Systems' comprehensive portfolio covering over 30 dental applications creates significant barriers to entry through accumulated intellectual property and validated workflows. This extensive coverage, combined with their materials science expertise, positions them to capture a larger share of the digital dentistry transformation, particularly as dental practices increasingly adopt digital workflows to improve efficiency and patient outcomes.

ROCK HILL, S.C., Feb. 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Today, 3D Systems (NYSE: DDD) revealed several new innovations it intends to showcase at LMT Lab Day 2025 including the NextDent® Jetted Denture Solution for multi-material monolithic dentures, as well as previews of its solutions for night guards and direct printed aligners. 3D Systems has established itself as a leader in digital dentistry – revolutionizing the industry with the broadest portfolio of integrated solutions that are helping dental laboratories and clinics more efficiently deliver patient-specific devices. The addition of solutions to address applications for dentures, and in the future night guards and direct-printed aligners, further strengthens the Company’s innovative position in the industry.
Foundational to 3D Systems’ multi-material, monolithic jetted denture solution the Company introduced at LMT Lab Day 2024, 3D Systems is pleased to debut the NextDent® 300 MultiJet 3D printer. This unique printer facilitates rapid production of patient-specific dentures that are fully cured and safe to handle without the need for additional post-curing steps. To complement the NextDent 300, 3D Systems’ materials scientists developed NextDent® Jet Teeth and NextDent® Jet Base — the former uniquely formulated to mimic tooth rigidity and aesthetics, and the latter to absorb impact. When these materials are used as part of 3D Systems’ FDA-cleared complete workflow solution comprising materials, jetted 3D printing technology, software, and services, high-volume dental laboratories can deliver dentures with improved performance and aesthetics, resulting in a superior patient experience. The speed of 3D Systems’ jetting technology combined with monolithic denture printing accelerates total production rates — enabling a full build of 15 arches in as little as nine hours — significantly reducing time to completion resulting in expedited delivery to the prosthodontist and patient. 3D Systems will be taking pre-orders for its NextDent Jetted Denture solution at Lab Day and anticipates general availability early in the third quarter of 2025.
With the introduction of the NextDent 300 for multi-material printing, 3D Systems is looking to the future with the next application of this technology for night guards. Night guards are a rapidly growing market segment driven by the need to prevent damage to teeth from night grinding, an affliction affecting millions of people around the world. Night guards are also increasingly used by physicians for the treatment of sleep apnea and related disorders. The Company expects night guards to become an important element of its dental technology portfolio in late 2025.
Finally, with the exceptional legacy 3D Systems has established for itself as a key supplier of 3D printing technology to the clear aligner industry, its technology today enables the manufacture of roughly one million patient-specific clear aligners daily across this rapidly growing market. The Company believes this work provides a strong foundation upon which to launch the next phase of significant expansion in the dental market, which will include novel technology for the direct printing of clear aligner products. 3D Systems anticipates availability of this solution in 2026.
“3D Systems has been a pioneer in digital dentistry for years, establishing itself as an industry leader,” said Dr. Jeffrey Graves, president & CEO, 3D Systems. “Additive manufacturing is poised for widespread adoption across all dental applications — to straighten, protect, repair and replace teeth — and we're perfectly positioned to capitalize on this growth. Our decades of experience developing specialized dental materials and 3D printing technology along with our deep applications expertise will allow us to bring a full spectrum of high-volume production solutions to market in the coming years. We're committed to this expansion and are working closely with key players in every dental product category to accelerate the availability of these advancements.”
According to Vantage Market Research, the global dental 3D printing market is estimated to be valued at
3D Systems will showcase its digital dentistry portfolio designed to address a breadth of dental applications for orthodontics, prosthodontics, and implantology such as the production of trays, models, surgical guides, dentures, orthodontic splints, retainers, crowns, and bridges at LMT Lab Day (booth A-43/B-42, East Exhibit Hall), to be held February 20-22, 2025 at the Hyatt Regency Chicago (Illinois). Additionally, the Company will highlight how it has validated the NextDent materials portfolio to perform across a wide selection of the industry's most trusted 3D printers. Attendees are also invited to participate in 3D Systems’ seminars to be held in the Comiskey Room, West Tower, Bronze Level. For more information, please visit the 3D Systems website.
