Planmeca Creo™ is our new precise 3D printer for creating
a wide range of indications. It is the perfect tool for dental
labs and large clinics aiming to expand their production
capabilities and increase efficiency.

Planmeca Creo™ is a versatile 3D printer for creating dental
models and surgical guides with true precision and efficiency.
In the near future, the device will also support the creation of
other dental objects of intricate detail, such as dental splints.
“3D printing is the way of the future, as it permits labs and

larger clinics to expand their production capabilities and increase

efficiency,” says Jukka Kanerva, Vice President of Planmeca’s Dental

care units & CAD/CAM division.

Planmeca Creo uses DLP technology which stands for Digital Light

Processing. This means it is a light-curing 3D printer that utilises

a digital projector as a light source – the main benefit being that

printing times are not affected by the number of models printed. The

projector will cure the entire print area (130 x 81.5 mm) with the same

effort.

Planmeca Creo creates objects out of UV curable resin. The 3D

printer's surgical guide material is a Class 1 medical material and has

been approved for use in contact with soft tissue, bone, and blood.

The contact is restricted to under 30 days.

The printer has its own dedicated software which is included

as part of all deliveries. Integration with the Planmeca Romexis®

all-in-one software is in the works. The Planmeca Romexis® Clinic

Management module will also support Planmeca Creo in the future.

This will enable efficient remote monitoring of ongoing printing jobs

and their estimated completion

times. Indications:
