What it is

What it is

Prosthetic laboratories use cast PU — in traditional molding and in rapidly expanding dental 3D printing — for temporary dental prostheses, study models, surgical guides and prototypes. Allows faster delivery than traditional metal.

The PU technology applied here is typically cast pu in dental 3d printing, selected for the combination of mechanical, chemical and processing properties suitable for the application. Specific formulations vary by equipment manufacturer or final integrator, but the base system has stable characteristics documented in technical literature and segment-specific standards.

Why it matters

Why it matters

For medical device manufacturers and hospital networks, temporary dental prostheses and models is a sensitive decision on three dimensions: regulatory compliance (ANVISA, FDA, CE MDR — each with its own process and years of qualification), clinical performance (patients depend on the product working as specified), and civil liability in case of failure.

Current drivers. Population aging expands demand for chronic devices — continuous monitoring, orthopedics, prolonged ventilation. Hospital digitalization creates new wearable products with specific requirements. Global regulatory hardening (European MDR replacing MDD, updated FDA QSR) forces supplier requalification and opens windows for those with structured compliance. ISO 10993 biocompatibility and supply chain traceability became basic requirements, not differentiators.
