As intraoral scanning and digital workflows become standard, labs and providers face growing pressure to meet rising expectations for both precision and aesthetics. FabGRAB, a Spanish dental startup born from the merger of two labs and a training company, saw an opportunity to lead the shift.
Their secret weapon? The Stratasys J5 DentaJet printer and TrueDent-D resin.
Any lab owner knows that traditional denture production is labor-intensive, involving plaster modeling, metal frameworks, and lengthy manual finishing steps.
TrueDent-D, a patented, CE-marked resin developed by Stratasys, enables fully digital denture workflows. Combined with PolyJet printing on the J5 DentaJet, it allows labs to produce highly aesthetic, monolithic dentures with precise tooth-base relationships and no bonding required.
"The difference is enormous," says Jaime Aisa Moreno, Co-Founder & CEO of FabGRAB. "What used to involve boiling, plaster, and brute force is now clean, fast, and digitally repeatable."
"With the J5, we can print hyper-realistic models that align perfectly with the capabilities of modern intraoral scanners," adds Aisa. "It’s the only printer on the dental market that can produce this level of realism."
In Spain, where FabGRAB operates, edentulism—the partial or complete loss of permanent teeth—affects nearly one in five adults. FabGRAB recognizes that traditional methods can’t scale to meet today’s needs for removables. But digital workflows can.
With the J5 DentaJet, FabGRAB can produce over 30 full dentures simultaneously in one print run, reducing manual labor and enabling batch production at scale. In addition, because the workflow is fully digital, designs and patient records can be stored and reprinted at any time.
"This gives us the flexibility to expand our service, support more providers, and deliver repeatable results faster," says co-founder Domingo Martínez.
FabGRAB is among the first labs in Europe to offer 3D printed, full-color dentures using TrueDent-D. The startup aims to use that first-mover advantage to become a market leader as demand for aesthetic, efficient denture solutions rises.
"Expectations for 2025 and beyond present an entirely new playing field," says Aisa. "Being one of the first to offer this puts us in a unique position."
In a market facing both a growing elderly population and a dwindling number of skilled technicians, the ability to digitize and scale denture production gives dental labs a significant competitive edge.
GrabCAD Print plays a key role in FabGRAB's success. The software not only integrates with major CAD platforms like 3Shape and exocad, but also simplifies job setup with automated nesting, smart support generation, and remote monitoring.
"Once the design is ready, we load it into GrabCAD, assign the colors for the gums and teeth, and send it to the printer," explains Aisa. "It streamlines the entire process."
The use of TrueDent denture presets—10 gingiva shades, 17 tooth shades, and layered translucency options—helps FabGRAB deliver natural-looking results that meet patient expectations for realism and personalization.
FabGRAB’s founders are clear: this is just the beginning. With the foundation now in place, the team is looking ahead to continued growth, broader adoption, and deeper personalization for the dental prosthetics they offer.
"TrueDent allows us to offer something that didn’t exist before," says Aisa. "And Stratasys has been a true partner in bringing that vision to life."
