7 solutions for your daily dental laboratory work

All dental technicians are familiar with the following situation: a patient is going on vacation next week, lets his/her teeth done beforehand and the dentures has to be completed under time pressure because the day before the flight, or even on the day of the flight, the try-in takes place.

This is by far not the only challenge that dental technicians have to overcome. You are confronted with numerous stumbling blocks in your everyday laboratory work. Today we will show you the solution for some of these hurdles.

Solutions for everyday dental laboratory work

The solutions against time pressure in everyday dental laboratory work

Whether the patient is going on vacation, the practitioner is making the appointments particularly tight, or Christmas is just around the corner and some patients would like to have the new restoration finished in the old year thanks to the Christmas bonus: there are many reasons why dental laboratory appointments are made urgent.

The question often arises: how can it be done? In order to offer dental laboratories, who are under great time pressure, some relief, we have optimized our processes in such a way that urgent orders can be brought forward and processed more quickly.

OneDay

For a small surcharge, we will prioritize your order and include it in daily production. We have reserved capacity for this, because we know from experience that urgent is urgent, and the practitioner and patient are reluctant to wait.

Express Service

Due to the common workflow, your work would not leave our premises until the day after tomorrow, but you would need the work faster on your desk? For these cases there is the express service. This applies after a telephone agreement to make sure that our capacities are sufficient and that we can also promise you the date with certainty. You can be sure that our team will do everything to make the seemingly impossible possible.

The solutions for price sensitivity in the dental industry

Hardly any industry is as price-sensitive as the healthcare industry and its dental sector. In order to be able to offer patients a high-quality aesthetic solution, dental laboratories must also work in a particularly price-conscious manner.

Standby

Just as we can prioritize work for a small premium and incorporate it into daily production, we offer labs whose orders are not rushed the opportunity to receive a time premium discount. You offer us the opportunity to plan our capacities and benefit from this in monetary terms.

Digital „ scraping out“

Due to its biocompatibility, gold is still a very popular material in dental technology - albeit a very expensive one at the same time. When introducing the Revolution LaserMelting Gold, we gave particular thought to how we could keep costs down for you. Digital “scraping out” is the solution, because it allows volume to be reduced and material to be saved. The effort in our house is not insignificant, which is why we charge for this service. However, your savings are significantly higher than this expense allowance.

To err is human – goodwill is the solution

Many factors play a role in color selection. How is the patient dressed, discreetly neutral or conspicuously colorful? What is the weather like and, accordingly, what are the lighting conditions like when the patient is on site to determine the shade? A wrong decision regarding the tooth color is often only noticed during the try-in.

CAD / CAM offers process reliability and in the age of intraoral scanners sources of error such as faulty impressions are reduced. However, not all dental practices or orthodontists are digitally equipped, which means that inaccurate or faulty impressions occur again and again.

Tiding over in case of vacation time or sick leave - this is how you solve the challenge in your everyday life

In addition to the usual struggle with deadlines and prices, which most laboratory owners are already prepared for, there are also unforeseen situations that they have to face. We also offer solutions for this.

Scanning / design service

Digital dentistry has already reached most dental laboratories. The scanning and design service that manufacturing service providers often offer is therefore superfluous. Or maybe not? Laboratory capacities may be no longer sufficient, especially during vacation time or in the event of sick leave. Colleagues have to be willing to work overtime or appointments have to be postponed. Not necessarily! Our experts will be happy to support you, regardless of the level of digitization in your laboratory, or in the form of fail-safety for your laboratory.

Repair of design files

The system just doesn't want to work the way you want it to, or it's an older model that doesn't allow units to be connected, for example? The persons in charge who are familiar with it are not available and you have absolutely whether time nor intention to deal with it? Our experts will repair your design files for you.
