What is the Ivotion material, and what makes ROE's FP3 version different?
Unlike traditional dentures that are assembled from separate pieces, Ivotion dentures are digitally designed and milled from a single, highly cross-linked monolithic PMMA puck. The puck contains both the pink (gingiva) and white (teeth) in one disc, so the prosthesis is milled as one continuous, strong structure. This monolithic approach is what gives Ivotion its combination of superior strength and esthetics.
For GuidedSMILE specifically, ROE partnered with Ivoclar to develop an FP3 version. This version features increased base thickness to exceed full-arch restoration requirements, while maintaining the same Ivotion manufacturing process.
| Attribute | GuidedSMILE Ivotion detail |
|---|---|
| Material | Ivoclar Ivotion, highly cross-linked monolithic PMMA |
| Construction | Milled from a single dual-content puck (pink and white) |
| Prosthesis type | FP3 (full prosthetic gingiva), developed with Ivoclar for GuidedSMILE |
| Key modification | Increased base thickness for full-arch durability |
Because the prosthesis is milled rather than processed from separate components, it preserves the principal strength of the manufactured material. See the Ivotion Denture Milling Timelapse and Ivotion GuidedSMILE videos on the product page.
