Planmeca has announced new branding for its complete chairside CAD/CAM system. Introducing Planmeca FIT, composed of the PlanScan scanner, PlanCAD software and PlanMill 40 mill as a fully integrated open CAD/CAM system for same-day dentistry. The FIT solution provides a digital workflow that combines exceptional patient experience and convenience as well as high-quality restorations with the perfect fit.

Focusing on a full system approach, the Planmeca FIT will adapt to a practice’s schedule, needs and expectations — a perfect fit for today’s busy lifestyle. It is the ultimate chairside digital solution to create a profitable dental practice. Planmeca FIT contains three key components: PlanScan scanner to accurately scan intraorally, PlanCAD software for intuitively designing the restorations and PlanMill 40 to precisely mill out the restoration in-office. With this complete system, dental professionals can achieve chairside restorations that patients appreciate, all in the same day.

“We wanted to package PlanScan, PlanCAD and PlanMill 40 as a full system that provides the perfect fit in restoration strength and aesthetics, as well as for the patient’s health and well-being,” said Jukka Kanerva, president of Planmeca CAD/CAM Solutions. “The Planmeca FIT open CAD/CAM system allows us to do just that. We have received many positive responses and are very excited to see its powerful impact to the marketplace as we continue to create solutions to better the patient and user experience of our products.”

Dental patients expect convenience and a comfortable experience. The Planmeca FIT System exceeds both of these expectations by providing beautiful, natural-looking restorations with the added convenience of same-day dentistry. Restorations fabricated by Planmeca FIT are strong, beautiful and natural in appearance — a perfect fit for the ideal smile. With Planmeca FIT same-day technology, practitioners can now go beyond traditional dentistry and create a new level of exceptional patient experience.
