The Evolution of Pala Digital Dentures

Pala 3D Printed eBook
Kulzer Printed Denture

We’re continuing to revolutionize the denture process: introducing the new 2.0 digital workflow.

The Pala Digital Dentures 2.0 workflow incorporates 3D scanning, design and printing technologies with your preferred fabrication techniques. The result is increased efficiency and cost savings for the laboratory, and dentures that look natural and fit perfectly for the patient.
Utilize Kulzer equipment to easily scan, design and create patient try-ins. Kulzer’s team of experts can also assist with designing and prototyping.
When it’s time to process the final denture, your team has full independence and control. A wide range of economy and premium options ensure you’ll get consistent, precise results every time— whether you opt for a fully printed denture, or more traditional methods. You design your workflow of choice as a partner lab!

Introducing the Pala 3D-printed Denture:

Powered by cara© Print 4.0 and dima© Print materials.

Printed denture with supports

Beautiful, perfectly fitted dentures in under two hours.

With all of the advances in printing technology, it's becoming more and more difficult to tell the difference between a fully printed and traditionally processed denture.
Our printed denture solution offers you custom options with 4denture base and 6 teeth shades, all are FDA cleared for long term use

Custom denture characterization.

Available as a set or in refills, the Pala cre-active light-curing color fluid system offers 12 colors in various consistencies. The cre-active system is universally manageable due to the structural viscosity of the liquid stains, and can be used to induvidualize conventional, digital and hybrid dentures.

Pala Digital Dentures 2.0 gives you freedom to create your best workflow

Save time and money by scanning conventional impressions and models. Reducing margin inaccuracies will help reduce chair time for the patient.
Scanning Tips
Equipment you'll need:

Scanner

cara Scan 4.0 (Coming Soon)
Easy-to-use, high performance dual-axis compact scanner that can scan both models and impressions.

Impressions

Pala Digital Denture Impression Trays - allows for a single visit for capturing imrpessions, vertical dimension and centric relations.
Flexitime Fast & Scan - Ready to scan impression material. No need for extra powders or sprays. Direct digital scanning allows for more precise scans and time savings.

Models & Bite Rims

Modern Materials (If not scanning impressions)
Our natural gypsum and wax products provides value, performance, quality and consistent results you can count on.
CAD design can be easier than you think with the right software. We encourage you to design your own dentures using our Pala Design Studio.
For additional support, the Kulzer Design Team can work from your scanned, digitized files to create the STL files needed for printing a prototype.
Equipment you'll need:

CAD Design Software

Pala Design Studio - Web-based denture CAD design software. Design a case in 10 minutes and have the final STL file rendered in under and hour.
3Shape ® - If you are already using 3Shape software, purchase the Kulzer Tooth Library to print Pala denture teeth.
3D printed prototypes are faster to create and more accurate. The Pala Digital Denture workflow gives you the flexiblity to create a prototype that fits your needs.
For additional support, Kulzer can then use your open STL files to produce a prototype for you, using any of the methods listed below. Visit www.PalaDigitalDentures.com to submit a case.
