When SprintRay launched the Midas Digital Press in 2024, it redefined chairside crown printing with the introduction of an innovative, single-use capsule delivery system. Designed to combine speed, accuracy, and simplicity, Midas gave clinicians a completely reimagined way to produce ceramic-based restorations in under 45 minutes — without messy resin bottles or complex workflows.

Each Midas capsule contains pre-measured Ceramic Crown resin, eliminating mixing errors and ensuring consistent results. This hands-free, hygienic format has helped dentists across the country bring same-day ceramic crowns in-house with confidence and convenience.

But as Midas adoption grows, a critical question emerged from clinicians across the SprintRay network:
“How do I properly dispose of used capsules — and stay compliant with waste regulations?”

Today, we have an answer.

A Smarter Way to Stay Compliant

SprintRay is proud to announce a new partnership with Dental Recycling North America (DRNA) to provide Midas users with a fully compliant resin capsule disposal program.

This solution ensures that dental offices can meet local, state, and federal hazardous waste regulations — without the headache of managing it on their own. By working with DRNA, the industry leader in dental waste recycling, SprintRay is making it easy for doctors to remain compliant while continuing to deliver cutting-edge digital care.

“As new materials and technologies transform dentistry, it’s critical that our waste management solutions evolve alongside them,” said Marc M. Sussman, CEO of DRNA. “We’re proud to partner with SprintRay to make it easier than ever for Midas users to remain compliant, ensure proper disposal, and meet their sustainability goals.”

Through this partnership, SprintRay will provide customers with direct access to DRNA’s nationally recognized waste disposal program. 

“We are excited to work with DRNA to provide our customers with an all-in-one solution for managing disposal of used Midas resin capsules,” said Amir Mansouri, Ph.D., CEO of SprintRay. “This collaboration reflects our commitment to making every aspect of the Midas experience smarter — not just in how crowns are made, but in how we protect our environment and support compliance for every practice.”

What’s Included in the Program

The DRNA–SprintRay disposal solution includes:

• Labeled collection systems to store used Midas capsules on-site safely 
• Prepaid return shipping — no need to arrange special pickups or drop-offs 
• Environmentally compliant processing that meets OSHA, EPA, and local regulatory standards 
• Full documentation and recordkeeping to support inspections and audits 
• In-app reminders and QR-code labels for a smooth, guided user experience 

Together, these elements create a turnkey waste management solution that eliminates guesswork and ensures that Midas practices remain fully compliant — without slowing down their workflows.

When and How to Join

The program is scheduled to launch ahead of Labor Day 2025, with onboarding materials and customer communications to help practices activate the service quickly and easily.

Get Compliant. Stay Compliant.

Dental offices that use Midas no longer have to navigate hazardous waste regulations alone. With SprintRay and DRNA, you can confidently dispose of resin capsules and stay focused on what matters most: delivering exceptional patient care.
