Optiprint Mattec 3D Resin — Dentona
The Dentona Optiprint Mattec 3D resin is designed for producing 3D printed dental models, working models and individual dies with a matte plaster-like finish, especially valued in the laboratory for improving visibility of technical areas.
Its finish reduces unwanted reflections under laboratory lighting, making it easier to inspect finish lines, occlusal anatomy and peripheral details on models intended for fixed prosthetics, study work or thermoforming.
Compatible with 385–405 nm DLP/LCD printers, this dental 3D resin for matte models helps produce clean, highly readable parts that remain comfortable to inspect, even during repeated production runs in a laboratory workflow.
Quick summary

- Easier margin reading on finish lines, edges, cervical areas and micro-details.
- Very good reproduction of fine details on study models and working models.
- Consistent production for repeated model printing in a digital workflow.
Detailed dental applications
- Study models for case review and clinical analysis.
- Working models for fixed prosthetics, verification workflows and laboratory organization.
- Individual dies for margin inspection, fit checking and preparation analysis.
- Supports for thermoforming trays or aligner-related workflows depending on laboratory protocol.
- Fast reprinting for digital archiving and on-demand model reproduction.
Why choose a matte 3D resin for dental models?
In a digital laboratory workflow, the visual readability of a printed model directly affects inspection speed and interpretation reliability. A matte dental 3D resin such as Optiprint Mattec helps reduce excessive reflections commonly seen with glossy resins, especially around preparation margins, cervical areas and occlusal details.
For the dental technician, this means better reading comfort, clearer identification of critical areas and more consistent handling during inspection, internal laboratory communication and subsequent thermoforming or model archiving steps.

Selection guide for the laboratory
Choose Optiprint Mattec if you need:
a matte dental model resin that is easier to read than a glossy resin,
better visibility of preparation margins,
a material designed for working models, dies and inspection prints,
and a visually comfortable resin for daily laboratory use.
Check before validation:
your printer’s actual compatibility with the 385–405 nm range,
exposure settings,
your cleaning and post-curing protocol,
and the required level of accuracy depending on the final use: study, working model, archiving or thermoforming.
Instructions & printing best practices
Before printing
Shake the bottle thoroughly to homogenize the resin.
Check your printer’s actual compatibility with the 385–405 nm wavelength range.
Load a profile suited to your machine, layer thickness and exposure settings.
Also check the condition of the vat, film and overall cleanliness of the printing area.
After printing
Clean the parts according to your laboratory protocol, often with IPA or another suitable product.
Allow the parts to dry completely before final curing.
Perform a controlled UV post-curing step to stabilize the final properties of the model.
Avoid unnecessary overheating or excessive curing times, especially on thin or highly detailed models.
Printer compatibility and digital workflows
Optiprint Mattec is intended for DLP / LCD dental resin printers operating within the 385–405 nm range. As with any technical dental 3D resin, final quality depends on the machine, printing parameters and post-processing protocol. A calibrated trial print is always recommended before routine production, especially when changing printer, profile or working environment.
Recommended day-to-day uses
This resin is particularly suitable for laboratories that need highly readable models for fixed prosthetics, case organization, preparation inspection, individual dies or model bases intended for thermoforming. Its main strength lies in the improved visual readability it provides during the inspection stage.

FAQ — Optiprint Mattec Dentona
Is this resin compatible with my dental 3D printer?
Optiprint Mattec is designed for DLP/LCD resin printers operating between 385 and 405 nm.
If your printer works within this range, compatibility is generally very good.
However, it is still advisable to validate a suitable machine profile before serial production, since the final result also depends on exposure settings, part geometry and post-processing.
What is the practical advantage of a matte resin in a dental laboratory?
The main advantage of a matte dental model resin is the reduction of visual reflections under laboratory lighting.
This improves the readability of margins, preparations and fine areas, which is useful for inspection and quality control.
In daily use, it can provide greater visual comfort than a highly glossy resin.
Can Optiprint Mattec be used for individual dies?
Yes, this resin is suitable for producing individual dies when the laboratory requires a readable and precise part.
The matte finish helps improve visual perception of margins, which is useful when checking fit and analyzing the preparation.
As always, final precision depends on machine calibration and the consistency of the overall workflow.
Which shades are available for this Dentona resin?
Optiprint Mattec is available in Caramel, Cashmire and Dolphin.
These shades allow the laboratory to choose a visual appearance that suits its preferred way of reading models.
The material remains primarily intended for producing precise matte dental models.
What post-processing protocol is recommended after printing?
After printing, it is recommended to clean the part carefully according to your laboratory protocol, dry it completely and then carry out a suitable UV post-curing step.
This process helps stabilize the final properties of the model.
Excessive curing should be avoided, especially on thin or highly detailed parts.
Can this resin be used for thermoforming on models?
Yes, it can be used for certain models intended for thermoforming, provided that printing and post-curing are carried out consistently.
Dimensional accuracy and surface quality remain essential for achieving a clean result.
The laboratory is therefore advised to validate its settings in advance according to its own cases and workflow.
