Renishaw’s new incise™ dental milling machine was a significant talking point at the Dental Showcase exhibition held recently in Birmingham, UK, where dental laboratories were shown a system that will allow them to produce high quality zirconia frameworks at prices well below current market norms.<\/p>\n
Said Gareth Tomkinson, UK Dental Sales Development Manager, “Renishaw is the world’s largest supplier of in-lab dental CAD\/CAM scanning machines, and because we also manufacture our new compact milling machine we can offer incredibly competitive pricing to laboratories who are either looking to produce zirconia restorations in-house, or have frameworks supplied through our central manufacturing facility.”<\/p>\n
Affordable dental CAD\/CAM ……without compromise
\nThe new dental milling system can produce single copings, custom abutments and bridge frameworks of up to 8 units in size, with further developments available early in 2010. Data obtained from Renishaw’s incise dental scanner is analysed using sophisticated dental CAD software, which then automatically determines a best-fit margin line and other parameters. The 3D computer model can then be fine-tuned by the technician if required before sending the data directly to the new dental milling system, which machines the pre-sintered zirconia billets supplied by Renishaw.<\/p>\n
Before the final sintering in a furnace, a colour stain can be added to the copings or bridge frameworks to match a patient’s teeth, or left as the original white colour. Zirconia is an extremely bio friendly material, that also provides exceptional strength and optimum aesthetics for even the most demanding restoration.<\/p>\n
Added Mr Tomkinson, “Our focus is on providing patients with affordable metal-free restorations as a viable alternative to non-precious PFM. However, there are no compromises; we manufacture high quality dental CAD\/CAM systems, which together with premium grade zirconia, allow labs to promote the benefits of metal-free dentistry to many more clinicians and their patients.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
