Our working method in pictures

Watch how we make a digital prosthesis

In this video you will see how a prosthesis is digitally designed with 3Shape and precisely manufactured with the Ivoclar PrograMill PM7. This gives you a clear picture of what happens in our own digital workshop.

Good to know: Digital working supports precision and reproducibility, but personal assessment, fitting, finishing and aftercare remain important.
