Digital Dentistry

Transformative Technology

Digital technology has changed the landscape of every industry, altering manual tasks and independent processes into integrated, streamlined workflows. Dentistry is no longer on the sidelines of this revolution, but adopting technical advances in imaging, manufacturing, and software integration to redefine the possibilities of dental procedures.

A dental practice or lab can incorporate computer-assisted technology on a variety of levels, from digital archives and patient education to cutting-edge imaging systems and same-day restoration treatments. Big and small, fully integrated or just starting out, dental professionals can elevate services and care in ways never imagined decades ago.

  2. Try Entry-Level Equipment: You don’t have to implement the most advanced, complex products right away. 
  3. Shop & Explore: Invest time to research and compare the options for your practice, budget, and technical level to maximize your productivity and profitability.
  4. Ask an Expert: Contact Us to have a product specialist determine the best digital solution for you.

Get Started with Chairside Dentistry

Digital chairside dentistry is faster, easier, and more reliable than ever before. It’s also highly in demand. Two thirds of patients would change their dentist in order to receive a single visit dentistry treatment, and half would be willing to pay more for single visit dentistry1.

Getting started with chairside dentistry doesn’t need to be overwhelming. Start with an intraoral scan, use CAD software to design a patient-specific restoration using a simple user interface, manufacture the restoration in a milling machine choosing from broad range of material options, and finish with a sintering and glazing process if desired. Use our CAD/CAM system CEREC for a fully integrated suite of products that interact perfectly and ensure seamless workflows, complete with extensive training support materials.
