At Legacy Dental in Salt Lake City, we pride ourselves on staying at the forefront of modern dental care. One of the most exciting advancements in our office is our use of state-of-the-art 3D printing technology. From custom night guards and surgical guides to precision temporary restorations and lifelike dentures, 3D printing enhances everything we do—improving comfort, accuracy, and speed for our patients.
Our in-house 3D printing capabilities allow us to take digital scans of your teeth and design highly customized dental appliances and restorations without the need for messy impressions or extended wait times. Whether you're protecting your teeth at night, preparing for dental implants, or restoring your smile with dentures, 3D printing gives you better results in less time.
3D printing brings a new level of precision, personalization, and efficiency to dental care. Traditional methods of creating dental appliances or restorations often involved physical molds, off-site labs, and longer turnaround times. With 3D printing, we can:
By integrating 3D printing into our workflow, Legacy Dental can deliver more consistent, convenient, and comfortable care to patients across Salt Lake City.
Night guards are essential for patients who suffer from bruxism (teeth grinding) or clenching while sleeping. Traditional night guards can take weeks to fabricate and often require multiple adjustments.
With 3D printing, we take a digital scan of your bite and print a custom-fit night guard designed to relieve pressure, prevent damage, and improve your sleep. The result is a guard that is more precise, more comfortable, and quicker to deliver than traditional alternatives.
Comfortable, custom fit
Durable and lightweight materials
Faster turnaround time
Reduced need for adjustments
When placing dental implants or performing complex surgical procedures, accuracy is everything. 3D printed surgical guides ensure that we can plan and execute procedures with incredible precision.
Using digital imaging, we map out the exact location, angle, and depth of implant placement. That plan is then translated into a custom 3D printed guide that fits over your existing teeth and guides the procedure in real time.
Increased surgical accuracy
Reduced risk of complications
Faster, safer procedures
Better long-term outcomes
Temporary crowns, bridges, and veneers are often required during multi-step treatments. With traditional methods, patients had to wait for lab-fabricated temporaries that might not match the natural contour of their teeth.
Our 3D printing system allows us to create highly aesthetic and functional temporary restorations while you wait—helping you maintain your appearance, speech, and chewing ability without compromise.
Same-day or next-day temporaries
Natural shape and appearance
Comfortable fit with fewer adjustments
Easy replacement if needed
Dentures are life-changing for patients who have lost multiple teeth—but the process of getting traditional dentures can be lengthy and uncomfortable. With 3D printing, Legacy Dental can design and fabricate dentures digitally, leading to improved fit, appearance, and turnaround time.
We start with digital scans and imaging to create a digital model of your mouth. From there, we design dentures that match your anatomy and smile preferences, and print them with advanced biocompatible materials.
No goopy impressions
Faster fabrication
Custom-designed for comfort and appearance
Easy to replicate or replace in the future
Considering a cosmetic procedure like veneers or full smile makeovers? With 3D printing and digital design tools, we can show you a visual simulation of your future smile—before we ever start treatment.
These simulations are based on 3D scans, photographs, and design software. We can even 3D print mockups that fit over your existing teeth to give you a physical preview of your results.
Confidence in your treatment plan
Ability to make adjustments before committing
Better communication of aesthetic goals
