Align has announced the launch of the iTero Design Suite. This new software reportedly allows doctors to design 3D printed models, bite splints, and restorations directly in their practice, according to a press release from Align. The iTero Design Suite aims to improve efficiency and enhance patient experiences by reducing the time to treatment. To do this, the iTero Design Suite employs the use of exocad™ CAD/CAM software. It is part of the Align™ Digital Platform, which offers a range of workflow technologies for dental professionals.
Dr Steven Glassman, a cosmetic dentist in New York, New York, and an Align Technology speaker, praised the new software in the press release. “The workflow is fast and efficient. We can easily design restorations, hard splints, models, and mockups to show patients the possibilities of cosmetic dentistry.”
Karim Boussebaa, Align Technology executive vice president, emphasized the company's commitment to providing digital solutions. “We have seen growing interest in 3D printing technology from our customers, and brining the iTero Design Suite to market reflects our commitment to offering our customers the digital transformation solutions they need to enhance practice efficiency and patient experiences through technology.”
The iTero™ Design Suite is currently available through an early access program. Clinicians with an iTero scanner can express their interest via their scanner or the MyiTero™ portal. The software is expected to be widely available later in 2024 in selected markets.
