Prettau Skin - Ultra-Thin Veneers: Now Available

By The Write Technician - February 19, 2025

One of the most impressive veneer technologies is now available from Bant Dental - Zirkonzahn ‘Prettau Skin’.

Minimal-prep veneers enable us to think about certain restorations in a new way and tackle some cases that would have had an unsatisfactory result using other methods.

Prettau Skin allows for veneers as thin as 0.2mm, and are available across a range of Zirkonzahn zirconias - including Prettau 2, 3 and 4 Dispersive - which means great aesthetics on ultra-thin restorations, providing both translucency and flexural strength.

And all of this means minimally invasive dentistry and the promotion of tissue preservation with minimal tissue loss.

(Note that with occasional, patient-specific cases, zero-prep veneers may even be an option, but this relies on a number of factors that will determine if the case is suitable).

Just some of the reasons you should be thinking about Prettau Skin Veneers:

Minimal preparation
Amazing aesthetics
Ultra-thin at only 0.2mm
Available across the Prettau Zirconia range, including Dispersive

Prettau Skin Veneers

What they mean for your patients

Prettau Skin veneers means that patients can get great visual results with minimal-preparation, minimal loss of healthy tissue, and maximum tooth preservation.

They are perfect for dealing with a number of dental issues, including:

Discoloration of teeth
Gaps or uneven spacing
Worn teeth
Misshapen teeth
Chipped or cracked teeth

With only minimally invasive prep, maximum healthy tooth preservation becomes possible for veneer applications. This is appealing to the patient for several reasons, including non-invasive preparation, potentially less sensitivity issues and possible reversibility later on if needed.

Try-ins are available so that agreement can be reached on the aesthetics before committing to the final manufacture - no more unexpected surprises for the patient. These are a great way to confirm the patient’s expected outcomes.

For anteriors, the Prettau 3 Dispersive zirconia has colour gradient running from the dentine to the enamel, to help create natural, attractive finish that your patients will love.

What they mean for you

With a try-in of the veneers available, you can check the aesthetics in the mouth before committing to the final restoration, and any issues with aesthetics, fit or occlusion can be dealt with before creation of the final prostheses in the lab.

Plus, through the creation of a unique, patient-specific guide, you will know exactly where the patient’s teeth need to be prepared, ready for the final veneer application.

Created by the dental lab, this tool is invaluable for making sure the preparation and process runs as smoothly and accurately as you could want.

Additionally, with minimally invasive dentistry, you will potentially have fewer issues with the patient down the line in the years following the fitting of the veneers.

And with the Prettau 3 Dispersive zirconia, Zirkonzahn have developed a superb, natural looking material with a triple gradient that affects not only colour, but translucency and strength - so you have a highly translucent incisal edge and cervical increased flexural strength at the tooth neck.

The end result is amazing aesthetics and a happy patient - not to mention some great word-of-mouth and stunning social media posts as an extra bonus for you.

Bant Dental and the Stratasys J5 DentaJet 3D PolyJet Printer

Bant Dental and the Stratasys J5 DentaJet 3D PolyJet Printer

By The Write Technician - December 17, 2024

Keeping up to date with the best technology has never been more important in dentistry - so just in case you didn’t already know about it, allow us to introduce you to the latest revolution in 3D printing – the Stratasys J5 DentaJet 3D PolyJet Printer.

The Stratasys J5 DentaJet we have in the lab allows us to print in ways that were not previously possible, and we have listed some of the key features below.

More importantly, however, we wanted to take a moment to show you what this means to you and your clients, so feel free to skip down to that section if you are in a hurry.

Here are some of the amazing benefits of the J5 DentaJet:

Better fit on all prostheses
Stronger dentures
Incredibly accurate printing
A wide colour palette with TrueDent resins

And these are just a few of the reasons why we invested in this most remarkable printer that is going to make your life easier, as well as providing a better experience for your customers.

So, without further ado, let’s dig into how you and your clients will benefit from Bant Dental Lab and the Stratasys J5 DentaJet 3D PolyJet Printer.

What this means to you?

Incredibly accurate prints

First off, the Stratasys J5 printer offers unrivalled accuracy, and this means better fitting prostheses for your customers – whether that be crowns, implants, dentures or anything else you need.

The printer handles print layers of just 18 microns with ease – and this also means that the models we print on the J5 will be as accurate as your original scans, ensuring that everything we build on top of them will also be as pinpoint precise as you need it to be.

Stronger dentures

The J5 printer creates the base and teeth of a denture as one structure, thereby eliminating the need for separate bonding of the teeth after the production process is complete.

What this means to you is a much stronger denture overall, with teeth that cannot debond. The result? Fewer breakages and fewer wasted appointments for you as a result.

A wide colour palette

The Stratasys J5 3D printer does not print from a pre-designed set of colour resins. Rather, it mixes base colours as it prints to create an almost limitless range of hues to choose from – and this unlocks the potential of the TrueDent print resin.

In the same way that your colour inkjet printer at home can produce all the colours you need from just a few colour cartridges, so too does the J5 – only it does it in 3D.

This truly innovative process gives you so many more options when it comes to colour, for teeth and soft tissue replication.

The Stratasys J5 DentaJet - A true revolution in dental technology

No wonder we call the Stratasys printer technology a true revolution.

With the powerful combination of the Stratasys J5 and the TrueDent resins, we are able to:

Mimic the patient’s natural smile more accurately
Offer a true variety of gum and teeth shades
Create variable translucency in teeth

A ll in all, it offers a new level of accurate, perfect-fit dental prostheses.

Digital technology is continuing to evolve, and at Bant Dental we are keeping pace with these many changes as they are happening,

For example, you will already know some of the benefits of digital dentures – fewer patient appointments, a better fit, and almost instant remakes if needed, as all designs are saved digitally – so in 2025, let’s take things to the next level together.

The same applies for copy dentures and even immediates - the benefits of a digital approach are clear to see.

This also extends, of course, to all other prostheses as well - crown and bridge work, implants, and even retainers.
