Dental Laboratory Milling Units

Used to fabricate complete or partial dental restorations based on digital designs, dental lab milling units are the production workhorses of dental CAD/CAM systems. Dental mills are designed to cut crowns, bridges, copings, frameworks, implant abutments and more from materials such as ceramics, zirconia, alloys, resins or wax. When choosing a mill it’s important to evaluate how many cases it will need to handle because mills come in a range of sizes designed for different production capacities. It also is important to know what software can power the mill so it will be compatible with the technology you use for scanning and designing. Different mills are capable of working with different materials, so make sure your choice of mill is capable of working with the materials you prefer. As with any technology, training and support are also important considerations when selecting the best dental mill for your lab.
