High-Tech in Dental Technology
For a few years now, dental technology is oscillating between two poles: proven craftsmanship on the one side and technological progress on the other. The proceeding digitalization, manifesting itself in modern computer based milling systems, offers new potentials, like for example the manufacturing of materials (e.g. circonium oxide ceramics) with outstanding chemical and physical features to ensure an excellent bio-compatibility. Additionally, CAD/CAM technology allows for precision and evenness within a µm level in producing frames for crowns and bridges. This has not been possible before by relying on pure traditional craftsmanship.Besides the already established and well known milling systems, we are among the few dental labs within Europe which run a computer-supported Rapid Manufacturing System (Phenix Systems PM 100), which enables us to produce high quality non-precicious-metal-based frames for crowns and bridges by utilizing laser-sinter-technology. Within this process, a defined portion of metal powder is being placed and melted by means of computer support. In doing so, a frame is being produced layer by layer. Restaurations based on such frames offer a potential cost saving up to 50% compared to full ceramic or precious metal alternatives.
Our team has been working within the domain of CAD/CAM-supported dental technology for 8 years now. Therefore, we possess extensive expertise and valuable know-how, which is essential even in the age of computer-supported production processes.
We also offer our services for business clients who are interested in collaboration, for example, if they want to let their frames being milled or sintered by us. If your company is interested, do not hesitate to contact us.
