In today’s fully digital denture workflow, precision and predictability are everything. Before moving to a final, fully characterized prosthesis, clinicians need confidence in fit, occlusion, phonetics, and overall function. That’s where the Stratasys TrueDent Monolithic Try-In comes in.
What Is the Monolithic Try-In?
The monolithic try-in is a single-shade, fully 3D printed denture designed specifically for evaluation. Unlike a final aesthetic denture with layered characterization, this version focuses purely on function and fit.
Printed using advanced digital denture technology, it allows doctors to verify:
-
Border extension
-
Tissue adaptation
-
Vertical dimension
-
Centric relation
-
Occlusion
-
Phonetics
-
Overall comfort
By removing aesthetic variables and keeping the restoration in one uniform shade, the clinical team can concentrate on what truly matters at this stage — performance.
Why It Matters
Remakes cost time, money, and patient trust. A properly executed try-in dramatically reduces adjustments at delivery and minimizes surprises.
With the Stratasys TrueDent Monolithic Try-In, you benefit from:
-
High digital accuracy from your submitted STL files
-
Durable, high-performance resin with dependable strength
-
Lightweight comfort for realistic in-mouth evaluation
This step allows you to fine-tune the case before committing to the final prosthesis, improving efficiency for both the lab and the practice.
Technical Confidence
The material platform offers strong mechanical performance suitable for functional evaluation:
-
Ultimate Flexural Strength: ≥ 85 MPa
-
Flexural Modulus: ≥ 2300 MPa
-
Sorption: ≤ 32 μg/mm³
-
Solubility: ≤ 1.1 μg/mm³
-
Minimum design thickness: 2.5 mm throughout
These specifications ensure stability during chairside testing while maintaining patient comfort.
A Smarter Digital Workflow
In a modern digital denture process, every step should increase predictability. The monolithic try-in acts as a checkpoint — giving you the opportunity to confirm every detail before moving forward with the final, aesthetic denture.
At Alien Milling Technologies, we’re committed to helping labs and clinicians reduce risk, streamline appointments, and deliver with confidence.
If you’re incorporating digital dentures into your workflow, the Stratasys TrueDent Monolithic Try-In is an essential step toward consistent, reliable results.
