VarseoSmile Crown Plus: A Groundbreaking Ceramic Resin for 3D Printing of Fixed Prosthetic Restorations
In the world of modern digital dentistry, where precision meets speed, VarseoSmile Crown Plus from the renowned company BEGO sets new standards. It is the world’s first hybrid ceramic material designed for 3D printing of fixed restorations, combining the aesthetics of a natural tooth with the strength of modern composites [1, 2]. As leaders in providing solutions for professionals, we present a product that not only streamlines the work of the prosthetic laboratory, but above all guarantees patients the highest level of comfort and durability for years to come [3, 4].
A revolution in your practice and laboratory: Why VarseoSmile Crown Plus?
Choosing the right resin for 3D printing is a crucial decision that affects the reputation of your practice. VarseoSmile Crown Plus is a ceramic-filled material, specially developed to ensure repeatable and precise results [1, 5]. Thanks to full integration with the digital workflow, this resin allows restorations to be produced in less time than ever before, opening the door to providing patients with ‘same-day treatment’ [2, 6].
This material is characterised by exceptional dimensional stability. Printed objects fit the patient’s clinical situation precisely, which minimises the time required for in-mouth adjustment [3, 5]. Furthermore, its low tendency to settle makes the resin extremely easy to use – with regular use, it does not even require stirring or shaking, which is rare for materials filled with ceramic particles [3, 7].
Benefits for the General Practitioner and the Patient
From a clinical perspective, VarseoSmile Crown Plus offers mechanical properties ideally suited to the conditions in the oral cavity. The material is certified as a Class IIa medical device (in accordance with the MDR) and has FDA 510(k) clearance, confirming its highest standards of safety and quality.
Patients particularly appreciate the aesthetic qualities. Thanks to a balanced ratio of opacity to translucency, the restorations look extremely natural [4, 10]. Furthermore, the material’s fluorescence mimics that of natural tooth enamel almost identically. Another important aspect is the high level of comfort – the material’s low thermal conductivity means that patients are less likely to complain of sensitivity to heat and cold.
Detailed Technical Specifications and Composition
The table below presents the advanced physicochemical parameters of the resin, which determine its exceptional performance characteristics:
The chemical composition of the material is based on the esterification products of bisphenol A (ethoxylated) and 2-methylprop-2-enoic acid. It also contains silanised dental glass, which is responsible for the resin’s hybrid properties, and photoinitiators such as diphenyl(2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl)phosphine oxide [11].
Available Colour Palette: VITA Classical System
To ensure a perfect match with the patient’s natural teeth, VarseoSmile Crown Plus is available in seven shades in accordance with the proven VITA Classical standard, as well as in a special bleached shade (Bleach) [3, 8, 9]:
- A1 Dentin
- A2 Dentin
- A3 Dentin
- B1 Dentin
- B3 Dentin
- C2 Dentin
- D3 Dentin
- BL (Bleach) Dentin
Packages are available in 250 g and 500 g sizes. It is worth noting that the 250 g bottles are particularly recommended for smaller systems, such as the Varseo XS printer [11].
Indications for Use and Clinical Preparation
The material has been developed for permanent restorations in the anterior and lateral regions, including occlusal surfaces [6, 8]. To ensure therapeutic success, several key principles must be observed during tooth preparation:
1. Clear preparation margins: A step or chamfer are the recommended forms of abutment preparation [12, 13].
2. Minimum wall thickness: To maintain structural integrity, the minimum wall thickness of the restoration must be 1 mm [12].
3. Avoidance of sharp edges: Sharp angles that may generate stress peaks in the material should be avoided. Any sharp edges should be smoothed before taking an impression or performing an intraoral scan [12, 13].
Post-Processing: The Key to Biocompatibility
After printing, objects require appropriate post-curing to achieve full mechanical properties and biocompatibility. The manufacturer has validated two main light-curing devices:
- BEGO Otoflash: Requires 2 x 1500 flashes in a protective gas atmosphere (nitrogen). It is important to rotate the object between cycles.
- HiLite Power: Requires 2 x 90 seconds of curing, also with the object rotated between phases.
The final restorations can be customised using commonly available veneering composites and composite stains, allowing for an even more natural aesthetic result.
Cementing VarseoSmile Fixed Restorations
The durability of the adhesive bond is crucial to the success of fixed restorations. VarseoSmile Crown Plus demonstrates excellent bonding with composite luting cements. Recommended materials include RelyX Unicem (3M Espe), Variolink Esthetic DC (Ivoclar Vivadent) and Panavia V5 (Kuraray Noritake). Thanks to their high radiopacity, the finished restorations are clearly visible on X-rays, which facilitates subsequent checks of the seal and the condition of the periapical tissues.
It is worth noting that this material has a low water absorption rate, which drastically reduces the risk of discolouration and material ageing over time, ensuring the patient retains an aesthetic smile for a very long time.
The “Smart Veneering” innovation
BEGO has also introduced the Smart Veneering concept, which utilises the advantages of digital design for veneering metal frameworks. It is an intelligent combination of the traditional strength of metal with the modern aesthetics of 3D printing, allowing veneers to be produced in a fraction of the time required by conventional methods.
Optimised Workflow and Compatibility
One of the greatest advantages of VarseoSmile Crown Plus is its compatibility with third-party systems. The material has been tested on numerous 3D printers from well-known brands, giving users flexibility in their choice of equipment. Full integration with CAD systems (e.g. 3Shape, exocad) allows for a quick transition from scan to finished product, which is extremely important in a modern dental laboratory.
