LOS ANGELES, US: SprintRay has announced the launch of the Midas World Tour, a global series of hands-on educational events developed in collaboration with GC America, Align Technology and Meisinger Dental. Designed to support the adoption of chairside 3D-printed restorative solutions, the programme is set to begin this month and span more than 30 cities worldwide.
The programme will provide clinicians with practical training in chairside workflows for single- and multi-unit restorations produced on the Midas Digital Press. According to the company, the collaboration brings together scanning, additive manufacturing, materials science, preparation and finishing within a same-day digital restorative workflow.
In this workflow, Align Technology’s iTero intra-oral scanners provide the digital restorative scans that form the basis of treatment planning. SprintRay then converts the scan data into restorations through its artificial intelligence-powered design studio and the Midas capsule-based 3D-printing system. GC America contributes its expertise in restorative materials, while Meisinger Dental supports preparation of the natural tooth structure and finishing of 3D-printed restorations with dedicated rotary instruments.
“This is a category-shifting accelerator,” said John Cox, SprintRay’s chief growth officer. “For years, single-visit restorative dentistry was limited to a small percentage of practices that could afford complex, expensive systems and learn design. By aligning leaders in scanning, additive manufacturing and material science around one engineered workflow, we are making that capability attainable for more dentists than ever before. This is not about selling products. It is about unlocking access to same-day restorative care at scale. We are fuelling that shift the best way we know how, through education that empowers clinicians to confidently lead the digital transition.”
Sreelakshmi Kolli, executive vice president and chief product and digital officer at Align Technology, added: “Every successful restoration begins with accurate data that is the foundation for treatment planning. Combining leading technology to offer a best-in-class solution for modern restorative care can play an important role in helping patients understand their oral health and the treatment options doctors can provide. By connecting highly precise intra-oral scanning directly into a validated additive workflow, we are creating a more predictable, efficient path from digital impression to final restoration, making same-day care possible.”
“Our contribution spans the full lifecycle of the restoration,” said Joseph Talanges, president and chief operating officer of GC America. “From characterisation and protective glazing that enhance aesthetics and durability, to trusted cementation and bonding protocols that secure long-term performance, we ensure every 3D-printed restoration is completed with confidence.”
The clinical backbone of the education tour is powered by MOD Institute, an evidence-based educational centre specialising in in-office 3D printing and additive manufacturing. Dr Wally Renne, founder of the MOD Institute emphasised: “3D printing isn’t the future. It’s right now. The clinicians who master these workflows today will influence the next decade. The rest will watch.”
