valuable ideas for the application
of exocad software solutions in
connection with digital hardware.
Three new DentalCAD Rijeka 3.1
features and modules were launched.

camera images are now automatically
imported when designing restorations,
enabling technicians to visualise the
internal and external tooth structure
and optimise the process of margin
line tracing. The new xSnap module
is a model attachment for a printable
3D articulated system featuring a
spherical head, which allows a precisely
executed protrusion, laterotrusion and
mediotrusion. And Ivoclar’s Ivotion
Denture System, a complete workflow
for the digital production of high-quality,
removable dentures is now available in
exocad.

To provide space for its growing
workforce, exocad announced it will
open a new high-tech headquarters
in Darmstadt, Germany, this
November. exocad also opened a new
headquarters in South Korea this past
May. With the relocation of exocad’s
Asia headquarters, the company said

even more comprehensive services to
