Optiprint Lumina – Translucent 3D Resin for Temporary Crowns and Bridges
Highly filled light-curing resin designed for the fabrication of aesthetic temporary restorations in a digital workflow: 3D-printed temporary crowns and bridges.
*Shades may vary depending on stock and manufacturer updates. **VITA is a registered trademark.
Optiprint Lumina is a highly filled translucent 3D printing resin designed for the fabrication of temporary crowns and bridges with demanding aesthetic requirements. Its formulation provides excellent dimensional stability, precise marginal adaptation and mechanical strength suitable for temporary use in both posterior and anterior regions.
Combined with a 385–405 nm dental 3D printer and a controlled post-curing protocol, Optiprint Lumina enables the production of temporaries with sharp contours, smooth surfaces and easy polishability, with chromatic integration close to VITA tooth shades.
- Highly filled translucent 3D resin for aesthetic temporary restorations.
- Laboratory-level marginal adaptation to reduce margin corrections.
- Mechanical strength adapted to chairside or lab-fabricated temporary crowns and bridges.
- Multiple VITA tooth shades for harmonious intraoral integration.
- Simple polishing, optional characterisation with light-curing composite stains.

Optiprint Lumina – Aesthetic temporaries in a digital workflow
Integrated in a complete digital chain (CAD, 3D printing, post-processing), Optiprint Lumina enables the production of high-quality temporary restorations with shade and shape reproducibility superior to conventional techniques.
The high filler content provides good resistance to abrasion and occlusal load while maintaining natural-looking translucency, which facilitates aesthetic assessment from the first try-in.
Printed structures can be relined, modified or complemented with composite, giving the dental technician real clinical and technical flexibility.
Lab tip – Optimising your Optiprint Lumina temporary crowns
For reliable restorations, plan a minimum thickness of approximately 1.0 mm for single crowns and 1.2 mm for bridges, particularly in posterior segments.
Orient the parts at 45–50° with fine but sufficiently dense supports to avoid deformation, especially in the cervical area and at bridge connectors.
After printing, a double isopropanol bath followed by complete post-curing ensures a homogeneous surface ready for finishing and clinical delivery.
Benefits for the laboratory and the patient
- For the laboratory: 100% digital workflow, time savings compared to investing, casting and build-up; easy reproduction of temporary restorations from the same design files.
- For the patient: comfortable temporisation, stable shape, aesthetics close to natural tooth, and the possibility to wear the restoration during the prosthetic planning phase.
- Simplified shade management thanks to a VITA-like shade range covering common anterior and posterior cases.
- Easy polishing and adjustments: occlusion and margins can be refined using standard finishing instruments.
- Reproducible process: stored exposure settings and a standardised protocol within the laboratory.
Recommended dental applications
- Single-unit temporary crowns in anterior and posterior regions.
- Multi-unit 3D printed temporary bridges (within clinical limits).
- Temporary veneers and aesthetic shells during mock-up and provisional phases.
- Transitional restorations before placement of definitive prostheses (ceramic, zirconia, metal-ceramic, etc.).
- Cases requiring high aesthetics and rapid shape adjustment via a digital workflow.
Instructions for use – Part 1
1. Preparation & CAD design
- Import intraoral scan data or scanned model data into the dental CAD software.
- Define cervical margins, minimum thicknesses and appropriate insertion axes.
- Design crowns or bridges while respecting occlusal clearance and proximal contacts.
- Export STL files following the 3D printer manufacturer’s recommendations.
2. 3D printing
- Shake the bottle vigorously before filling the resin tank to homogenise the material.
- Select the Optiprint Lumina material profile or a suitable temporary-resin profile in the printer software.
- Orient the parts at 45–50° with well-distributed supports, avoiding attachment points on visible incisal edges.
- Start the print while monitoring resin level and ambient laboratory temperature.
Instructions for use – Part 2
3. Cleaning & drying
- Remove the restorations from the build platform and trim excess supports if necessary.
- Clean the parts in one or two isopropanol baths (or recommended solvent), ideally in an ultrasonic cleaner.
- Dry with compressed air until all glossy, unset resin is eliminated from the surface.
4. Post-curing & finishing
- Place the restorations in a suitable light-curing unit, following the recommended time and cycle.
- Remove remaining supports, check fit on the model and polish using finishing burs, polishers and discs.
- Rinse and clean before delivery to the practitioner, who may perform final intraoral adjustments if required.

FAQ – Optiprint Lumina 3D Resin
Is Optiprint Lumina suitable for multi-unit temporary bridges?
Yes, Optiprint Lumina is designed for the fabrication of temporary crowns and bridges, including multi-unit restorations.
It is essential to respect the recommended minimum thicknesses, especially at connectors and in posterior segments.
Wearing time must remain within the scope of temporary use and depends on the clinical protocol validated by the dentist.
Which dental 3D printers are compatible with Optiprint Lumina?
Optiprint Lumina is intended for dental 3D printers operating in the 385–405 nm range (DLP, LCD or SLA technologies).
Exact compatibility and material profiles are provided either by the printer manufacturer or by Dentona.
Whenever available, a validated Optiprint Lumina material profile from the printer’s resin library should be used.
What is the recommended wearing time for temporaries made with Optiprint Lumina?
Optiprint Lumina is designed for temporary restorations. Wearing time depends on the clinical situation and the practitioner’s recommendations.
In most cases, it is used for temporisation phases lasting from several days to a few weeks, while the definitive prosthesis is being fabricated.
Any extension beyond this period should be assessed by the practitioner on a case-by-case basis, considering occlusion, hygiene and mechanical stress.
Can temporaries printed with Optiprint Lumina be characterised or repaired?
Yes, restorations printed with Optiprint Lumina can be characterised and adjusted either in the laboratory or chairside.
Light-curing flowable composites or stain composites can be applied after appropriate surface preparation.
Margins, contact points and occlusal areas can also be adjusted and polished using standard finishing and polishing instruments.
