SprintRay, manufacturer of dentistry’s leading solution for in-office production, has launched two all-new 3D printing resins: NightGuard Flex and NightGuard Firm. These revelatory materials will allow dental professionals to use the SprintRay frictionless ecosystem to design, print, process, and place 3D-printed flexible and rigid nightguards in-house.
These new resins, now available for sale in the United States (US), will allow clinicians to unlock revenue streams and cut treatment lead times for occlusal care, empowering them to compete with DTC (direct-to-consumer) offerings on convenience while delivering fully supervised care.
SprintRay, thanks to its unique Cloud Design lab service and full ecosystem of 3D manufacturing products, is uniquely positioned to help dental professionals deliver more occlusal guards to those who need them with these two new materials:
- NightGuard Flex, formulated to be the fastest, most comfortable 3D-printed nightguard in dentistry
- NightGuard Firm, a fast-printing rigid splint resin with industry-leading strength and aesthetics
“With NightGuard Flex, we’re able to provide a comfortable occlusal guard that’s easy for the dentist to deliver while being comfortable and flavourless for patient satisfaction. This material has been clinically developed from scratch to help dentists address rising occlusal issues,” said Ehsan Barjasteh, head of SprintRay Resin Development. “As parafunctional habits like grinding and clenching are on the rise, our NightGuard resins will play a key role in helping doctors provide fast, cost-effective, long-term relief to thousands of patients across the world.”

Clinically formulated to create the fastest, most comfortable 3D-printed occlusal guard in dentistry, NightGuard Flex becomes pliable at body temperature and is completely flavourless.
NightGuard Flex makes it easy to protect more smiles with two times faster print speeds for same-appointment delivery and fewer supports due to improved dimensional stability while in green state, reducing waste and improving speed to delivery.
