Dental Formers & Dental Curing Equipment

Dental formers, or dental curing equipment, are key tools for lab technicians when fabricating full or partial removable prosthetics, mouthguards or temporary dental restorations.

What Types of Disposable Dental Formers Are Available?

Thermoformers and vacuum formers are used to create sports and sleep mouthguards, while dental pressure pots, denture curing units and dental lab curing units can be used to fabricate removable devices.

What Should I Consider When Selecting Dental Formers?

There are different types of dental pressure pots on the market. Some use heat and others use water or compressed air. Many come with an internal temperature gauge, a temperature controller, and an air lock and safety valve. It’s important to choose a system that works best for your lab. Dental lab light curing units cure resin based composites used in dental and orthodontic appliances. The light source may be LED, halogen, xenon, laser or ultraviolet. Dental curing lights that use LED lighting are often lighter and more portable than the halogen options. LED lighting does not give off the heat halogen does, eliminating the need for an internal fan. Features often include various intensity levels and preset timer intervals. Make sure the unit you select comes with a product warranty. No matter what type of dental former you plan to purchase, look for a reputable vendor who offers high-quality products. It’s also a good idea to research customer reviews before making the investment.
