The lab has asked our denticians to design and produce a titanium abutment with a zirconia crown. The scans made by the dentist are available, but the lab is unable to import and process them. We have taken over the digital process which resulted in a custom dental restoration.
From the lab…
The dentist sends an intraoral 3D scan to the dental laboratory. His patient needs a titanium abutment at implant level with a full-contour zirconia crown.
… to our denticians…
The dentist used a Straumann scan body for scanning. The lab is unable to process the 3Shape scans and asks Intellident for assistance.
Now our denticians take over. We …
- … locate the implant position using the Straumann scan body;
- … import the data into exocad and match it with our custom database;
- … design the abutment and the crown in-house in exocad;
- … make a 3D-printed model with Elos replica and removable soft tissue using our custom Elos database;
- … produce the abutment with implant connection (from our own database) and mill the zirconia crown in-house.
… and back to the lab
The lab technicians receive our semi-finished restoration and only need to add the finishing touch.
Our added value for the customer?
During this process, we have taken over the complete digital workflow. Our custom databases, built and expanded by us over the years, and our expertise in all available dental software allow us:
