“Digitalization and Adoption of CAD/CAM Technology Transforming Dental Lab Operations”
- Digitalization is transforming dental labs with the widespread use of computer-aided design and manufacturing systems that enable faster and more precise prosthetic production
- CAD/CAM technology helps create custom-fit crowns, bridges, and dentures with improved accuracy and efficiency compared to traditional manual techniques
- The integration of 3D printing with CAD/CAM allows labs to produce high-quality restorations and prototypes in less time, streamlining operations
- For instance, Dentsply Sirona’s CEREC system and 3Shape’s TRIOS workflow offer seamless digital solutions from scanning to final product, enhancing collaboration between labs and dental clinics
- Dental labs using digital tools experience fewer errors, faster turnaround, and better patient outcomes, gaining a competitive advantage in a growing market
