Titanium RPD frameworks

Send us the scan. We create the design, print the framework, and ship the completed case back to your lab.

Material

Space Ti® titanium (TC4)

  • >900 MPa yield
  • >8% elongation
  • ~50% lighter than CoCr

Ti-6Al-4V is the alloy the aerospace industry runs on, at 90% titanium. Our heat-treated frameworks reach over 900 MPa yield strength with more than 8% elongation after fracture. Against cobalt-chrome it is about half the weight and more than 300 MPa stronger in yield (over 900 MPa against 600), it is biocompatible and hypoallergenic, and being non-magnetic it does not interfere with MRI.

What we make

RPD frameworks

Major connector, rests, clasps and mesh retention printed as one piece: no soldering, no casting shrinkage to compensate for.

Case workflow

Four clear steps from scan to shipment.

  1. 01

    Send your scan

    Upload your files on the printing page (STL, PLY, OBJ, 3MF, STEP, IGES or a ZIP of the whole case), or ship us a physical impression. We handle the design.

  2. 02

    Optional design review

    Design review is optional. Ask for it and we send the design for your approval before anything goes into production.

  3. 03

    Production

    We produce the dental metal framework in your selected material: Cobalt-Chrome (CoCr) or Titanium (Ti).

  4. 04

    Ship

    Standard cases ship in 6 business days. Rush cases ship in 4 business days with a $40 rush fee.

What we accept

Questions

What labs ask before their first case.

What does the price include?
Design and the resin model are included in every price. There is no separate design fee and no charge for the model.
Do I have to approve the design first?
Only if you want to. The form has a button for it: choose “send the design for my approval first” and nothing goes into production until you say so. Leave it off and we go straight to production.
Cobalt-Chrome or titanium?
Titanium alloy weighs roughly half what cobalt-chrome does at the same volume, and it is biocompatible and corrosion-resistant, which is why patients with metal sensitivities are usually put in titanium. Cobalt-chrome is the long-standing choice for porcelain work and comes in at 8.6 g/cm³ with 600 MPa yield strength, rated by the manufacturer for spans up to 16 units. Tell us the case and we will tell you which we would use. Precious metals (platinum and silver) we print on request: email us the case first.
How fast can I get it?
6 business days as standard, 4 for $40. If you need it sooner than that, call us and we will tell you honestly whether it can be done.
