Technologies revolutionizing 3D Dental sector

Additive manufacturing has reached a significant number of sectors and industries, subsequently offering important advantages in terms of productivity, costs, customization and lead times. In the field of dentistry the technology creates solutions adapted to the needs of each patient. It is also a flourishing industry, not too long ago the consulting firm QY Research announced that dental 3D printing was expected to reach $930 million by the end of 2025. In other words, the market is expected to grow at an annual rate of 17%, which can be explained by the constant development of 3D technologies and their materials. Indeed, dental 3D printing includes different processes such as stereolithography or direct metal sintering and therefore a variety of materials: resins, plastics, metals, etc. The application of 3D printing in dental is wide, it is possible to make surgical guides, crowns, trays and dentures and each solution is adapted to each patient with high precision.

We also find metal additive manufacturing as a process in dentistry. Mainly used to produce implants, stellites, or nickel-chromium screeds. Oliver Bellaton comments, “This technology requires sustained production to absorb investments of up to several hundred thousand euros with skills coming from the industrial world rather than the dental sector.” Metal printers are much more expensive than other technologies and will sometimes require more post-processing work reducing productivity for some. After talking with a dental technician, he explained that a crown made by machining requires 15 minutes of work, however a 3D printed metal one requires 5 hours of printing. On the other hand, in terms of cost per unit, additive manufacturing is much more interesting, 75 cents for the latter against more than 7 euros.

Dental 3D Printing Technologies and their Materials

When we talk about dental additive manufacturing, it is important to understand that several technologies are involved, whether it is fused deposition modeling, photopolymerisation or laser sintering, the choice will depend on the type of application at stake. For example, the FDM process will manufacture pieces “at a cost of a couple of pennies and no post-processing after printing. However, speed, accuracy and biocompatibility are not present.” Generally, the latter technology will be used to create orthodontic dental models for thermoform gutters, whether for alignment, bleaching or restraint. On the other hand, 3D printed dental solutions using PEEK are emerging. The 3D printer manufacturer, IEMAI3D said, “There are many advantages to making partial prostheses with PEEK. It is a strong and lightweight material that will improve patient comfort. The frame of the prosthesis is produced without metal and is completely neutral in terms of taste.”

Another additive manufacturing process used in the dental sector and probably the main one is photopolymerisation. Whether we are talking about stereolithography (SLA) or DLP, this process offers a much higher resolution, and most importantly biocompatible materials. In this case, liquid resins. Anton Lopez, Channel Sales Manager France at EnvisionTEC told us, “Combined with CE/FDA approved materials, photopolymerisation and especially DLP, gives more accurate printing which allows more accurate devices to be created. The finishing is much less complex, which reduces manufacturing time. Also, it is very easy to change materials and print for different applications. This is very beneficial for the dental industry because professionals can treat their patients more quickly”. In terms of applications, this technology offers more possibilities due to its precision; we are talking about surgical guides, temporary crowns and bridges, calcinable elements such as dental stellites, etc.

The future of circular economy: Breaking barriers in PET thermoform recycling

PET is one of the most widely recycled plastics globally, with bottle-to-bottle recycling already an established circular system. However, thermoformed PET packaging, including clamshells, blister packs, and food trays, still lacks adequate recycling infrastructure. Recycling these PET thermoforms is essential for transitioning to a truly circular economy, as worldwide obligations for recycled content may cause a shortfall in the supply of bottle recycles; PET thermoform recycling can ensure a new stream of valuable PET material.

Barriers to recycling PET thermoforms

PET thermoforms are commonly used for consumer goods, electronics, and fresh produce packaging. They offer versatility, clarity, and superior machine compatibility at a low cost. The problem arises when these packages end their life; PET thermoformed trays and clamshells do not easily fit into existing PET recycling streams, as they are contaminated with food, labels, inks, and adhesives. This has led to lower collection and recycling rates, with most thermoforms ending up in landfills.

Emerging advancements in PET thermoform recycling

However, new efforts are emerging to close this loophole. Advanced sorting facilities can now separate PET thermoforms from single-stream collections. Technologies such as Near-Infrared (NIR), Density Separation, Optical Sorting, X-ray scanners, and even AI-powered industrial robot sorting allow proper identification of PET thermoforms for recycling. The next step is reintroducing this recycled PET content into manufacturing supply chains.

Opportunities for companies to embrace circularity

Brands across industries are gradually recognizing the need to incorporate recycled PET from thermoformed packaging into new packaging. Doing so minimizes plastic waste while extending the circularity of PET material beyond PET bottles. Such tray-to-tray recycling was not possible in the past.

Overcoming challenges through collective action

The biggest challenge lies in securing a consistent supply of rPET (tray-to-tray) material at scale. This requires greater adoption of deposit return schemes, partnerships with waste management firms, and consumer awareness regarding the importance of better managing PET tray waste to keep this valuable input resource in the loop. Stakeholders must understand that the long-term environmental benefits outweigh the initial investments.

Realising the circular economy potential

Sourcing rPET from thermoformed packaging distinguishes a company as an environmental steward. It will also future-proof businesses against plastic regulations and taxes more cost-effectively in the long term. By supporting thermoform recycling infrastructure, companies enable the shift towards a circular economy, where plastics retain value instead of spilling into ecosystems.

The technology for thermoform-to-thermoform recycling already exists. What is needed now is a collective effort by brands, manufacturers, and consumers to prioritize these processes. Companies now can lead this change for the health of our planet.

To learn more about closing the loop with PET thermoform recycling, contact AVI Global Plast at +91 022-68559300 or info@avigloplast.com. We supply rPET punnets to clients across industries, including fresh produce, which gets collected after delivery, recycled by our partner recyclers, and supplied back to AVI as rPET flakes for new punnets—enabling a circular economy.
