3D printing takes the efficiencies of digital design to the production stage. By combining oral scanning, CAD/CAM design and 3D printing, dental labs can accurately and rapidly produce crowns, bridges, stone models and a range of orthodontic appliances.
With a 3D printer doing the hard work, dental labs eliminate the bottleneck of manual modeling and let the business grow. For those eager for the day when everything from scheduling to finished restoration can be achieved digitally and automatically, the future is here.
