Materialise Dental is celebrating 20 years of 3-D Digital Dentistry

The implant library, encompassing more than 8,000 implants from 90 brands, browses like the catalog you´re familiar with. An extensive range of SurgiGuide solutions provide a more time-and cost-efficient way to realize esthetic perfection for all types of cases.

New SimPlant users can benefit from the newly launched PlanAssist service for their first patient cases. From preparing the scan, to planning the case, to ordering a SurgiGuide, the planning assistant guides clinicians in taking their first steps towards working with their newly acquired SimPlant treatment planning software.

Featured product: PlanAssist

Upon free registration at www.dentalplanit.com, clinicians can benefit from PlanAssist — a service delivering a 3-D plan in the market-leading SimPlant software format — without software investment. The 3-D plan allows the dentist to order the most accurate SurgiGuide drill guide to perform the surgery.

PlanAssist brings dentists a consistent approach for implant cases, limiting in-surgery decision-making and risks associated with dental implants. Added benefits include transparent pricing, a predictable restoration and a healthier treatment budget via reduced implant stock and lab work.

With the PlanAssist proposal, the patient can also see his treatment prior to the treatment, helping him to better understand the reasons for the proposed implants. Without a doubt the best possible start to restore each individual case in a profitable manner.

Customer testimonials

“I have been using SimPlant since 1994. It has been without question the most significant tool for surgical diagnostics and planning in my 20 years of clinical practice. I routinely utilize the software each and every day. Thank you.”
—Dr. Maurice Salama

“I was fortunate to become involved in CAT scan technology for the evaluation of bone for dental implants in the late 1980’s. With the introduction of the SimPlant program, the use of 3-D images has entered a whole new dimension. Today, not a day goes by when this technology is not used in the implementation of dental implant surgery, treatment planning, and new patient assessment. It has become an indispensible tool in my examination and treatment planning armamentarium.”
—Michael Sonick, DMD
