“The acquisition of Horus 3D resins is an extremely important step for Aditek’s future. Since its foundation in 1990, our focus has been on metallic brackets and today, we still believe in this category growth market, we continue to invest in innovative technology and solutions, but we are also diving into Digital Dentistry. 3D printing is a fundamental step in this process, especially when we relate the Panda Intraoral Scanner to our aligners brand, Cleartek. All of this is part of the same ecosystem and we need to deliver a complete and effective service to dentists and democratize digital dentistry”, says Eduardo Lopes.

“This is a very important step for us at Astro Science. Almost 10 years ago, we started the project to develop materials for additive manufacturing, mainly for the dental market. In this new phase of the company, in partnership with Aditek, we will continue with our operational independence, being able to work on even more innovative new products.

The technology helps the professional save time in every appointment, show the patients how accurate and advantages the proposed treatments could be. Also, with 3D printing, the work delivered to the patient is much more accurate and over time, the 3D printing models are gaining more and more space in clinics and prosthetic laboratories.”, says Luis Lima, commercial director.
