Asiga at Prosthodontic Associates
Prosthodontic Associates was founded on a clear vision: to provide patients with the very best in restorative and prosthetic dentistry by combining clinical expertise with advanced technology. Having seen first-hand the challenges patients face when dental appliances take too long to arrive or fail to meet the required precision, Dr. Gordon Burt established his practice with a focus on innovation and quality. From the beginning, he believed that integrating new digital technologies would transform the patient experience—reducing waiting times, increasing accuracy, and ensuring that every appliance delivered the highest standards of comfort and aesthetics.
3D printing in the clinic
When evaluating 3D printing solutions for in-house production, Dr. Burt sought a system that would deliver precision, consistency, and flexibility. In 2017 he chose the MAX UV as his go-to 3D printer for in-clinic production. Seeing increased demand for 3D printing in-house he needed to add another printer to his in-clinic lab and the obvious choice was the Asiga Ultra.
Precision and repeatability were essential. In prosthodontics, a fraction of a millimeter can mean the difference between a perfectly fitting appliance and one that causes discomfort. Asiga’s printers provide the accuracy required to ensure every crown, splint, denture base, or surgical guide is exactly as designed, case after case.
Equally important was ease of use. The intuitive interface and reliable workflow of the Asiga printers allow the team to focus on patient care rather than troubleshooting equipment.
Freedom to use any material
Asiga’s open material system gave Prosthodontic Associates the freedom to use the latest and best resins available, from biocompatible splint materials to aesthetic denture bases. This flexibility means the practice can always stay at the forefront of dental innovation. Explore Asiga’s material library >
A scientific approach to curing
To complement the printers, Prosthodontic Associates added the Cure, Asiga’s pioneering scientific post-curing device. The Cure ensures that every printed appliance is post-cured under controlled conditions, guaranteeing complete polymerisation. For Dr. Burt, this means peace of mind—knowing their restorations are safe, biocompatible, and durable.
Accurate curing is not just about safety, but also performance. By ensuring that materials reach their intended mechanical characteristics, the Cure helps deliver restorations that are strong, stable, and long-lasting, reflecting the quality standards Dr. Burt has set for his practice.
"The Cure gives us the reassurance
that whatever we issue to our patients will
meet our high standards."
