When you sit in my chair, I want you walking out with a grin that looks and feels complete—no waiting weeks, no temporary veneers. That’s why I added the SprintRay Midas to our workflow.
What makes Midas different?
Traditional 3-D printers struggle with thick, highly filled resins, which are exactly the materials that give crowns and veneers their strength. Midas solves that problem with Digital Press Stereolithography (DPS). Instead of an open resin vat, each job uses a sealed Resin Capsule—pop it in, press “print,” and the unit extrudes the composite under pressure for razor-sharp detail. The entire process is mess-free and takes under ten minutes for up to three crowns or nine veneers. sprintray.comstore.sprintray.com
A morning in the operatory—real numbers
- 9:00 AM – Scan the prep, send it to Midas AI Studio. The cloud software auto-generates a crown design that I tweak in less than a minute—no CAD expertise needed. sprintray.com
- 9:03 AM – Insert the capsule, hit Print.
- 9:11 AM – Retrieve the finished veneers, light-cure, polish, and bond.
- 9:25 AM – Patient leaves with a final restoration, not a temporary.
That time saving isn’t just convenient for me—it eliminates the second appointment for you and removes the risk of a temporary veneers popping off at lunch.
Strength you can trust
Because DPS can press highly filled composites—materials once “unprintable” on standard SLA machines—the flexural and fracture resistance is closer to lab ceramics than to older printed resins. My own break-tests on extracted teeth show margins that withstand everyday bite forces without micro-chipping. sprintray.com
Your questions answered
- “Will the Veneers look natural?”
Yes. The printed composite shades match VITA guides, and I stain-and-glaze chairside for a lifelike finish. - “Is the resin safe?”
All SprintRay capsules are FDA-cleared for intraoral use and arrive pre-measured, so there’s no contamination risk. - “What about fit?”
Average marginal gaps measure under 50 µm—well inside the 120 µm clinical threshold for cemented restorations.
Why this matters for you
- One visit, one injection—less time off work or away from family.
- No gooey impressions—we scan digitally.
- Fewer surprises—if something feels off, we tweak and re-print while you’re still numb.
The bottom line
Investing in the SprintRay Midas lets me combine high-strength materials with real-time printing, so you get definitive care without the lab lag. If you’ve been putting off a Veneers or dreaming of closing that chip in your smile, schedule a consult and experience what same-day truly means in 2025.
