Smells like structural acrylic resin to me. We didn't use a UV cure but
once you've worked with it it's not a smell you forget. I don't find it
unpleasant.

I don't remember there being any smell at the dentist's office.


Methacrylate resins are generally used in dental work. Methyl
methacrylate can be smelled at levels below 1 ppm.

Acrylic resins are those usually cured with UV light. The UV activates
the catalyst.
