 Enhanced Dental Product: exocad CAD/CAM Software

exocad, the OEM open architecture dental CAD/CAM software powering numerous digital dental lab systems has added integration with a number of new dental lab scanners and chairside digital impression systems.

Continuing the company’s goal of giving digital dental professionals freedom of choice in the hardware they use along with exocad software, the system can now accept scans from 3M, 3Shape and Renishaw dental lab scanners as well as the 3M True Definition chairside scanner and the 3Shape TRIOS digital impression system, according to a press release. The 3M and Renishaw connections were made via a direct partnership with those companies, while the 3Shape connections are available via the 3Shape exoscan driver which was developed by a 3rd party software company.

The chairside scanner connections allow dental labs using exocad systems to accept scans directly from the intraoral scanners via exocad’s dentalshare system. The collaborative nature of the software connection allows scans to be sent to the lab for lab-based restoration design and fabrication or sent to the lab for design only with the CAM file sent back to the practice for chairside milling.

Additionally, exocad announced improvements to its core software with support for Windows 8 and touch enabled devices including the Surface Pro 2 tablet. Improved color and design rendering also adds to the software, making smile design more predictable. Enhancements to the software’s denture and implant planning modules are also in the works.
