Carbon, Inc, just announced another resin validation, Keystone® KeyMask® for use with Carbon M-series printers, to further strengthen its partnership with Keystone Industries.

This collaboration marks a continuation of the partnership between Carbon, a pioneering technology company in product development and additive manufacturing, and Keystone, which has been formulating biocompatible photopolymer resins for dental and cosmetic applications for 3 decades.

KeyMask is a flexible, yet firm 3D-printed material designed to simulate the look and feel of natural gum tissue. Its introduction to the Carbon M-series printers is designed to enable dental labs to enhance their digital restoration planning with accurate, low-shrinkage, and easily trimmed gingival masks. Developed by Keystone, this innovative solution is set to transform the way dental labs approach prosthetics and restorative dentistry.

Precision and Efficiency

KeyMask features high strength, flexibility, and natural esthetics, and is formulated to ensure durability and a realistic representation of gingival tissue. By integrating KeyMask with Carbon’s advanced M-series printers, dental labs can achieve a high level of precision and efficiency in their restoration workflows, the companies state.

“Carbon’s partnership with Keystone to validate KeyMask for our M-series printers is a testament to our commitment to offering the best materials for digital dentistry,” Phil DeSimone, CEO and Co-Founder of Carbon, says in a press release. “This collaboration enhances our portfolio of dental solutions, providing our customers with the tools to deliver high-quality cases to their customers.”

Keystone KeyMask for digital dental restorations provides several benefits including Realistic Gum Tissue Simulation (KeyMask’s flexible yet firm composition offers lifelike simulations of gum tissue for high-quality dental restorations) and an enhanced digital workflow. Dental labs can now streamline their digital restoration planning for more accurate and efficient outcomes, according to the companies.

Keystone KeyMask is now available for use with Carbon M-series printers in select regions, including the United States and Europe. Labs interested in integrating this advanced material into their dental restoration processes can contact their local Carbon representative for more information.

Back in September of 2021, Carbon and Keystone Industries announced that the 2 companies had agreed to develop a flexible removable partial denture resin based on Carbon's patented dual cure materials. The joint effort brought about the first use of Carbon's patented dual cure process in a dental application.
