Pac-Dent Expands Rodin Materials Line with 2 New Products

Pac-Dent, Inc. has announced its plans to expand its line of Rodin® 3D Resin Printing Materials with the launch of the Rodin All-Purpose Glaze and Rodin Palette Naturalizing Kit during Lab Day West in Garden Grove, California, on May 12 and 13.

The Rodin Palette Naturalizing Kit is a light curable staining system that is designed to complement 3D-printed prefabricated teeth and denture base materials, including Rodin Sculpture and Rodin Denture Base. This system utilizes the same advanced nanotechnology found in Rodin Sculpture to deliver excellent results, allowing clinicians to achieve natural-looking and long-lasting restorations, according to a press release from Pac-Dent.

The Naturalizing Kit is also meant to streamline the characterization process by offering users control and precision. It features a variety of colors to enhance and emulate the natural characteristics of teeth.

The Rodin All-Purpose Glaze is a biocompatible, Class II, light-curing resin that is designed to deliver a glossy finish. This glaze is formulated to seamlessly integrate with all Rodin resin substrates to ensure a polished surface that improves translucency

Using the All-Purpose Glaze reportedly offers production advantages, such as the sealing of micro-fractures that can occur during support removal, wear resistance, and the reduction of manual polishing. This glaze is suited for use with direct and indirect composite restorations and provisional devices.
