Step One. Send Digital Impression

Sending China Dental Laboratory your digital impression is quick and easy, to send additional digital files like patient photos, CBCT scan etc. please click here to use our file uploader. You can also send us your detailed requirements together with the digital files by Email info.chinadentallaboratory@gmail.com

China Dental Laboratory is expertly qualified to assist clinicians who utilize digital impression systems. The lab employs computer-aided technology in nearly every step of production, ensuring that prescribed restorations are consistently well-fitting and able to be fabricated from the most modern materials. For both traditional and implant restorations, China Dental Laboratory accepts scans for the Sirona CEREC® platforms, the Align Technolgy iTero™, Carestream Dental’s CS 3500, PLANMECA CAD/CAM SOLUTIONS E4D Technologies PlanScan®, the 3M™ True Definition Scanner, and 3Shape’s TRIOS®.

 

Step Two. Digital Case Design

Once your scan data has been transferred to the digital network at China Dental Laboratory, a specialized team of dental technicians performs a small clinical evaluation to verify that each case is ready for production. Approved cases are then distributed to the appropriate technical department based on the material and restoration type requested by the clinician. At China Dental Laboratory, nearly 99 percent of case design is handled with dental design software. These purpose-built programs enable our experienced dental technicians to shape every aspect of a restoration. Our decades of traditional lab experience educate every click, ensuring precise fit, function and esthetics.

 

Step Three. Digital Production

After the digital restoration design is complete, the design file is transferred to the appropriate production team based on the type of material and restoration requested by the clinician. Below are brief outlines of the various processes and technologies employed across a variety of our lab services.
Regardless of whether a clinician sends a case digitally or with traditional impressions, all restorations at China Dental Laboratory are fabricated with the same cutting-edge technologies and techniques. It is our mission to bring the benefits gained from these technologies to clinicians and patients across the world.

PFM and Full-cast Restorations
The design files associated with PFM and full-cast cases are forwarded to 3-D printers, which extrude wax or plastic material to construct restorations layer by layer. These printed restorations are then submerged in investment material to make a reverse mold of the approved restoration design, into which the desired material can be pressed. Similar to monolithic cases, the final shading and characterization for PFM restorations is completed by hand.

Implant Restorations
Components necessary for implant cases are manufactured in-house utilizing a separate series of milling machines, which are the same as those used to produce components for luxury-brand Swiss watches. Our ISO-certified implant manufacturing facility enables us to deliver implant restorations of the highest quality at an affordable price.

Removeable, Partial and Preventtive Appliances
The scan data for removable, partial and preventive appliances is utilized to create a digital model of the patient. This digital model is then 3-D–printed, creating a physical model on which traditional lab techniques can be used to create the requested device.
