Spring 2026 marked a significant milestone for RAYSHAPE as we successfully concluded our participation in two of Europe’s most influential dental trade fairs: Expodental Madrid and IDEX Istanbul. As a global leader in dental 3D printing solutions, RAYSHAPE’s presence at these events underscored our commitment to driving the digital transformation of dentistry, offering clinicians and dental laboratories the tools they need for more efficient, precise, and patient-centric care.

Expodental Madrid: Innovating the Iberian Dental Landscape
From March 11th to 13th, the RAYSHAPE team welcomed professionals at IFEMA Madrid, Hall 4, Booth 4E24. Expodental is renowned for its focus on innovation and technology, and this year was no exception. Our booth served as a hub for Spanish and international visitors eager to explore the latest advancements in chairside 3D printing and automated post-processing workflows.
During the three-day event, we highlighted the seamless integration between our 3D printing ecosystem and mainstream intraoral scanners. Attendees witnessed firsthand how RAYSHAPE’s solutions can drastically reduce lead times for surgical guides, orthodontic models, and splints, empowering local clinics to transition toward a fully digital workflow with confidence and ease.

IDEX Istanbul: Connecting Global Innovations in the Heart of Eurasia
Following the success in Madrid, RAYSHAPE traveled to Turkey for IDEX Istanbul (April 15th–18th), one of the world's largest dental exhibitions. Located at the Istanbul Expo Center, Hall 4-B17, our team engaged with thousands of dental technicians, laboratory owners, and dentists from across the EMEA region.
The atmosphere at IDEX was electric. Visitors were particularly impressed by the scalability and reliability of our lab-oriented solutions, such as the Edge E2 and Edge Max series. In a market as dynamic as Turkey’s, the demand for high-throughput, high-accuracy additive manufacturing is soaring. RAYSHAPE’s open material system and validated resin workflows for permanent and temporary restorations resonated strongly with the regional audience, cementing our position as a preferred partner for digital lab upgrades.

Core Highlights: Precision, Efficiency, and Biocompatibility
A common theme across both exhibitions was the rising standard for biocompatible materials. RAYSHAPE’s collaboration with global material leaders, such as the validation of BEGO VarseoSmile resins on the Edge mini, showcased our ability to deliver high-resolution (34.4 μm XY) prints for permanent crowns and inlays. This capability, combined with our user-friendly ShapeWare 2.0 software, ensures that even those new to digital dentistry can achieve professional-grade results from day one.

Looking Ahead
The journey through Madrid and Istanbul has been immensely rewarding. We are inspired by the passion of the dental community and the shared vision of a more digital, precise future. RAYSHAPE would like to thank all our partners, distributors, and visitors who stopped by our booths. We look forward to continuing these conversations and helping you unlock the full potential of your dental practice. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue our global mission to empower the dental industry with cutting-edge 3D printing technology.
