It is also 5-6x more expensive if not more. But you are not wrong. Milling is fantastic. Proven technology, proven materials. However printing lowers the investment cost significantly to be able to carry in-house production. Also what SprintRay is developing here may totally change how we think about printing resins and their physical properties. It will be interesting once we get some decent low cost mills. Then we will have a good competition.

Possibly. It already exists. LITHOZ printers. Right now, they are too slow, but if / when the technology is improved, it could be good. The issue always is, milling works very well. Any change will need to beat that.
Great interview. Good honest answers with no BS, happy to see!
Thanks! It was great speaking to the man behind all of this.
Love the interview!! I am from india and would love to get the printer in future.What would be the cost of midas?
Thank you!
The cost of Midas is $9,995 USD
Grrat interview. Cant wait to get my printers.
Likewise! Looking forward to the MIDAS in ANZ.
It's an approximate 7 min mill on the Primemill using composites, and no post processing.

Re: injected composite vs printed inlay -> I’ve spent more than 3-5 minutes on certain cases just getting the section matrix right. Just saying…
Have you tried exocad?
@@InstituteofDigitalDentistry Yes but in limited use. Getting my own licence within the next 2-3 weeks. Along with the newest Dexis IO scanner.

Lithium disilicate printing will change everything

Also… I bet the Midas prints perfectly in micro-gravity. #spacedentistry Has NASA or SpaceX approached Sprintray yet???
