Copenhagen, February 17, 2012 - 3Shape will present the coming features in Dental System™ 2013 and the highly-acclaimed TRIOS®* digital-impression solution, at the two major dental events in Chicago - LMT Lab Day and the Midwinter Meeting. Always at the forefront of CAD/CAM innovation, 3Shape has once again pioneered an exciting range of new digital features and dedicated workflows designed to help both labs and dentists, while streamlining the cooperation between them.
3Shape will be staging their new products at the following Chicago events:
Due for release later in the year, Dental System™ 2013 represents the market’s most complete system for dental CAD/CAM. With the recent addition of new indications and workflows, 3Shape’s Dental System™ is now the first CAD/CAM system to cover all the major dental indications – bringing the era of full digital labs closer than ever before. Some of the coming features are:
Design and manufacture orthodontic appliances digitally
3Shape now brings the market a unique and long-awaited CAD software solution for orthodontics that allows labs to provide complete orthodontic services.
“The new Appliance Designer™ is the first CAD program that digitally creates all types of orthodontic appliances, says Henrik Vestermark, Vice-President of Business Development for North America. “Appliance designs are made ready for manufacturing using 3D-driven machines and materials. Labs can now provide highly competitive night-guards, retainers, customized bands, splits, and more, by taking advantage of our CAD/CAM technologies.”
3Shape will also be showcasing its TRIOS® digital-impression solution, including a wide range of new features. TRIOS® enables dentists to rapidly capture the complete intraoral situation and send the 3D model directly to the lab. Unlike many other scanners, 3Shape’s TRIOS does not require pre-spraying of the teeth. The system clinically validates the impression and includes flexible tools allowing dentists to edit their scans, and even ‘delete-a nd-rescan’ specific areas where needed.
