DIGITAL IMPRESSION FILE

Regardless of whether a clinician sends a case digitally or with traditional impressions, all restorations at Preferred Dental Laboratory are fabricated with the same cutting-edge technology and technique. It is our mission to bring the benefits gained from this technology 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.

 

MONOLITHIC RESTORATIONS

Monolithic restorations are milled from solid blanks of ceramic material using 4- and 5-axis milling machines.  These ceramic restorations then undergo firing processes to establish their long-lasting durability and natural-looking appearance.  Final restoration characterization is still completed by hand to establish desired esthetics.

 

IMPLANTS

Components necessary for implant cases are manufactured utilizing a separate series of milling machines.  Our decades of traditional lab experience educate every click, ensuring precise fit, function and esthetics.  This all-digital design process guarantees a higher accuracy in the final restoration because the errors inherent to traditional impressions and the pouring of stone models are completely removed. In fact, most of our modern production workflows can be completed entirely without a physical model ever being produced. Clinicians who wish to verify their restorations on a model can still request one.
