February 26, 2026 – 3D Systems, a global leader in additive manufacturing for dental and medical applications, has announced an important expansion of its NextDent® Jetted Denture Solution with three new gingival base shades, designed to elevate aesthetic customization and patient satisfaction in removable prosthetics.
The company introduces Dark Pink (DP), Light Pink (LP), and Red Pink (RP), joining the existing Light Tone (LT) to create a four‑shade palette. This expanded range enables dental labs to precisely match a broader spectrum of natural gum tones, supporting more lifelike and patient‑centric outcomes.
These new materials are fully compatible with the NextDent 300 printer, which leverages multi‑material jetting and on‑demand digital color blending. By integrating custom base and tooth shade matching within a single print workflow, the technology eliminates manual layering and streamlines production, improving consistency while reducing labor and turnaround time.
Commercial availability is set to open for orders in late February 2026, with full U.S. market launch expected in May 2026. Dental technicians and laboratories can now reserve capacity to adopt the updated materials ahead of general release.
This launch reinforces 3D Systems' commitment to advancing digital denture workflows. By combining expanded shade options with proven 3D printing efficiency, the company helps labs deliver highly personalized, durable prosthetics that boost patient confidence and streamline clinical success.
