With <strong>Dental</strong>CAD, which currently has over 12 add-on modules,<br />
exocad has developed today’s leading dental CAD software<br />
for use in dental practices. Other software solutions include<br />
exoplan for implant planning and ChairsideCAD for same-day<br />
dentistry care in the clinical environment. Products such as<br />
exocam for production complete the portfolio in a practical<br />
way.<br />
At exocad there is no easing – the portfolio is constantly<br />
evolving. For example, PartialCAD was recently introduced<br />
for the design of high-quality partial dentures. The software<br />
is available as an add-on module for <strong>Dental</strong>CAD or as a<br />
standalone version. Smile Creator, a new tool for the planning<br />
of highly aesthetic restorations, is also due for imminent<br />
release. Additionally, users of exoplan can quickly access<br />
an add-on module for designing surgical guides, enabling<br />
in-house production of guides.<br />
All software applications have been developed on the same<br />
platform and therefore follow the same operating concept.<br />
exocad has created a simple, user-friendly and, above all,<br />
future-proof solution that fully meets the needs of customers<br />
in a rapidly developing market.<br />
Enabling in-house production of surgical guides<br />
Furthermore, exocad announced the introduction of its new<br />
exoplan Guide Creator module – a software solution for surgical<br />
guide design. It provides dental practices and laboratories with<br />
a digital workflow offering maximum flexibility. This new feature<br />
is available in selected geographies as an add-on module for<br />
exoplan, a powerful, open and efficient software package for<br />
virtual implant planning. Customised surgical guides can be<br />
designed using the new Guide Creator software module, after<br />
which they can be produced on-site in a laboratory, dental<br />
practice or external production centre. This increases the<br />
production value of existing equipment, with 3D printers in<br />
particular providing more profitability when producing surgical<br />
guides.<br />
All exocad solutions are based on the same open-architecture<br />
platform, ensuring seamless functionality of the digital<br />
workflow: from virtual prosthetic-oriented implant planning<br />
with exoplan, to designing surgical guides with Guide Creator,<br />
and planning and producing the implant-supported, temporary<br />
and final restorations with <strong>Dental</strong>CAD, exocad’s dental<br />
CAD software.<br />
“As the world’s leading supplier of dental CAD software,<br />
we provide the perfect symbiosis of prosthetic and implant<br />
planning,” said Mr. Tillmann Steinbrecher, CEO of exocad.<br />
“Users achieve predictable results in a cost and time-efficient<br />
manner, which ultimately results in increased customer<br />
satisfaction.”<br />
exocad users in dental practices and laboratories can depend<br />
on a high-performing and reliable software platform which has<br />
a proven track record of around ten years. All exocad software<br />
solutions follow the same operating concept and exocad has<br />
always valued vendor independence that allows clients to build<br />
the solution that fits their needs. exocad software offers direct<br />
integration with a variety of 3D scanners, milling systems and<br />
3D printers. Open architecture benefits exoplan users who<br />
may freely choose from a wide range of imaging devices,<br />
materials and implant systems available on today’s market.<br />
The software also provides dentists and dental technicians<br />
with a comprehensive library of implant, abutment and sleeve<br />
systems from numerous established manufacturers.<br />
exoplan processes large image datasets at an impressive speed.<br />
Hard and soft tissues are simultaneously displayed in both 2D<br />
and 3D and in high resolution. These optimal visualisations of<br />
the initial situation support the user in simple and safe planning<br />
of implant positions.<br />
exocad places great emphasis on a transparent cost structure without<br />
pay-per-use or hidden fees. The company provides its software<br />
solutions as a traditional OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer)<br />
exclusively via partner companies all around the world.<br />
Ultimately, the main takeaway for participants of exocad Insights 2018<br />
was that the future of digital dentistry lies in open systems. DA<br />
