SensAble
Technologies, Inc®, a leading provider of 3D touch-enabled modeling
solutions, dental CAD/CAM solutions and haptic devices, has announced
partnerships with key dental industry players that will offer
fabrication services for milled crowns and bridges, in a variety of
materials including zirconia, to SensAble
Dental Lab System owners. Partners include Remedent
Inc. (OTCBB: REMI), of Ghent, Belgium, an international leader in
oral care and cosmetic dentistry products; and Precise
Structures Milling Center of Laguna Hills CA, which operates milling
centers in Laguna Hills and Oshawa, Ontario. These SensAble Authorized
Milling Centers will fabricate milled restorations directly from files
created by the SensAble Dental Lab System.
“We are excited to be the first SensAble Milling Center in Europe and
offer this service to SensAble Dental Lab customers”
With demand for all-ceramic dental prosthetics growing at ten times the
rate of traditional materials, and over 72 percent of dental
lab owners citing an uptick in demand for zirconia-milled restorations
in the past two years, the establishment of SensAble
Authorized Milling Center partners gives dental labs even more
flexibility to choose the production approach that best suits their
needs. SensAble
Dental Lab System customers will be able to either print 3D resin
parts for metal casting or ceramic pressing, or now order milled
substructures or ceramic overstructures from SensAble Authorized Milling
Centers.
“The growth in all-ceramic crown and bridge restorations is driven by
both patients’ desire for enhanced esthetics and dentists’ awareness
that dental CAD/CAM systems like the SensAble Dental Lab System can
produce superior fitting restorations,” said Cameron Karpowitz,
president of Precise Structures Milling Center. “We’re pleased to offer
our expertise in milling to SensAble’s customers, and know that they
will get great results.”
