Orthodontic Resins
Braces have to withstand a lot. Our orthodontic resins have been developed to meet the high physical and medical demands and have excellent biocompatibility. In addition to the classic colours, the colour range also includes very modern and bright neon colours as well as a black and white version. This means that there are no limits to creativity when designing orthodontic appliances. Bite splints, special snoring splints and drilling templates for implantology can also be produced quickly and easily.
