Dental Lab Products-2012-08-01

Tom Zaleske, owner of Matrix Dental Laboratory, discusses his experience with Dental Creations' lab products.

THE LAB Dental Crafters is a family owned full-service FDA-registered dental laboratory, focused on servicing dentists and their patients throughout North America and beyond. With more than 20 years of experience, co-owners Brad and Bob Slominski pride themselves on bridging art and science by providing esthetically pleasing, quality restorative products to include crowns, dentures, implants and sleep apnea devices.

Adding a new material to a dental laboratory can bring major changes to the business. Workflows and equipment might need to be adjusted, and demand for the new product is essential. But when everything comes together, the transition can lead to a more efficient operation producing higher quality restorations.

Designed as an all-in-one CAD system for dental laboratories, the DScan Due+ is a structured white light scanner with an integrated PC. The system can handle accurate 3D scanning, precision digital modeling and CAD restoration design. While the system offers automated operations, all scan strategies and data acquisition parameters are user customizable. Scans are accurate up to 15 microns, data can be exported in standard STL format, and the scans and designs can be viewed by connecting the scanner to any computer monitor.

For years now, my dental laboratory has relied on Roland 3D milling technology to produce the highest quality prosthetics for our dentist and laboratory clients around the globe. So I was ready to hear more when Roland told us the new DWX-50 was available.

An improved composite, digital impression system, implant and a denture brush are the products that are as hot as an August sun in the weekly new dental products roundup for the week of Aug. 20, 2012. In case you missed them when they were posted on the dlpmagazine.com website, here's the links to the product information and the companies that provide the products: VITA VM LC composite from Vident
