Digital Dentistry

Digital Impression
Digital Impression is a new process of obtaining impressions through a digital scanner (intraoral camera) that scans teeth and gums internally (360-degree video). This process allows patients to avoid unpleasant conventional impressions that involve using silicon in the mouth. It reduces the time for constructing and delivering prosthetic restorations, and the entire fabrication process (crowns, bridges, implant-supported restorations, etc.) takes place within a beneficial digital environment.
Our clinic utilizes these advantages of Digital Dentistry along with various devices (CBCT cone beam computed tomography, intraoral scanner, CAD-CAM milling machine, 3D printer, etc.) and digital software, following technological innovations applied in the field of Digital Dentistry.

Our patients can benefit from maximum digital radiographic imaging within our clinic(https://www.kavo.com/en-us/imaging-solutions/soredex-digora-optime-intraoral-x-ray)Carestream 8100 3D Cone Beam CT & Soredex Digora Optime Intraoral X-ray, https://www.kavo.com/en-us/imaging-solutions/soredex-digora-optime-intraoral-x-ray), covering all dental procedures without the need to visit external radiology labs.
This accelerates dental treatments and maintains a digital record of images (Tomography, Panoramic, Intraoral), essential for diagnosis and evaluation of dental therapies.
Our clinic takes advantage of Digital Dentistry, along with a set of devices (CBCT Cone Beam Tomography, CAD-CAM milling, 3D printer, etc.) and digital programs (software), keeping up with the technological innovations applied in the field of Dentistry.

Digital Design (Digital Design)
Panorama Dental Center has access to Digital Design Software {Digital Design Softwares, Simplant (https://www.dentsplysirona.com/en-us/categories/implant-dentistry/simplant.html) and Exocad (https://exocad.com)}, necessary for designing crowns, bridges, veneers, dental alignments, and implant restorations. These software products are classified as medical products, ensuring the validity of our dental treatments with safety, control, and favorable prognosis.
The ability for our dentists to perform the design themselves at Panorama Dental Center provides prosthetic restorations and implant-based therapeutic solutions with high-quality standards promptly. Our patients can receive comprehensive dental restorations quickly without having to go to other facilities (radiological laboratories, dental laboratories, etc.).

Using the Exocad digital software, the Panorama Dental Center and its dentists offer patients custom-made, biocompatible, and highly durable prosthetic restorations (crowns, bridges, veneers, dental alignments, implant-supported structures, etc.).
With the digital software, the “Guided Implant Placement” splint is designed, ensuring the success of surgical implant placements, as well as a comfortable postoperative course.
Digital Impression” (Carestream 3600), the “Cone Beam Computed Tomography” (Carestream 8100 3D), the robotic “CNC milling machine” (Vhf R5), the “Digital Printer” (Asiga Max UV), the Digital Design Software (Simplant & Exocad), as well as the reputable, high-quality, and biocompatible materials used, provide the necessary prerequisites for aesthetic, hygienic, and highly favorable dental work.

Digital Prosthetic Fabrication
With the innovative R5 machine by Vhf (https://www.vhf.de/en/products/dental/dental-milling-machines/r5/), Panorama Dental Center completes its transition to the world of Digital Dentistry. By providing the design models of prosthetic restorations (crowns, bridges, veneers, etc.) from its design software to the German-made Vhf CNC machine, it efficiently and accurately carries out dental work.
This highly automated milling and grinding machine brings revolutionary approaches to our clinic, potentially ranking it as one of the most advanced Digital Dentistry Clinics in Northern Greece and Europe.

The Panorama Dental Center relies on the Asiga Max UV 3D printer
The Panorama Dental Center relies on the Asiga Max UV 3D printer(https://www.asiga.com/products/printers/max_series/max/)for the fabrication of surgical guides for “Guided Implant Placement” and bite splints, orthodontic models, temporary crowns & bridges, dental models, and aligners, making it one of the best tabletop 3D printers in terms of print quality and indications in Dental Science.
The precise layer formation of biocompatible resin is crucial for achieving stable and accurate results in any production environment. With approximately 380 biocompatible 3D printing materials, the curing process is accelerated using deeper UV wavelengths (385nm), reducing scatter in the XY axes and excessive hardening. The result is increased precision, accuracy, production reliability, and material processing capabilities.
The Asiga Max UV holds a prominent position and acceptance worldwide in the dental field, which influenced our choice for a 3D printer at Panorama Dental Center.

Digital Dentistry Software
Panorama Dental Center relies on the design software Simplant by Dentsply/Sirona (https://www.dentsplysirona.com/en-us/categories/implant-dentistry/simplant.html) and Exocad (https://exocad.com). Simplant by Dentsply/Sirona is a medical design product for the “Guided Implant Placement.” The positions of the implants, identification of anatomical elements of the jaw, depths, and angles of the drillings are virtually designed, and with great ease and safety, the splint is printed.
Similarly, Exocad is widely regarded by many dentists and dental technicians as the best design software for various prosthetic constructions worldwide.
Panorama Dental Center has the latest Full Edition of these software packages, enabling the application of “One Day Dentistry” treatment for its patients by designing personalized prosthetic restorations.
One Day Dentistry / All In One Center
The concept of “One Day Dentistry” includes therapeutic approaches within a few hours. It is a concept that originated from the USA, where a Dental Clinic is equipped with devices, machines, and digital software, along with the necessary knowledge and experience of the medical staff, to implement digital procedures for the construction of prosthetic restorations.
Patients in these Dental Clinics can enjoy prosthetic and implant restorations in a very short period and within innovative digital processes. The safety, validity, and excellent prognosis of these treatments form the basis of these procedures. Moreover, the patients who choose these treatments benefit from greater comfort throughout the process.The classic method of dental impressions using silicone, which can be uncomfortable for the patient, is replaced by “Digital Impression” where an intraoral camera scans the teeth and gums of the oral cavity.
This digitalization of the impressions also allows immediate processing through Design Software right after the Digital Impression. Prosthetic restorations can be milled (using a CNC machine) or printed (using a 3D Printer) within a few hours. This process dramatically reduces treatment time, providing patients with a more comfortable experience during their prosthetic treatment. The same reliability can be achieved with implant treatments. The production of a “Guided Implant Surgery Stent” is generated after taking a Cone Beam CT Scan and a “Digital Impression” within a short period.
Additionally, the restorations of implant-supported prosthetics take only a few hours to mill and complete. Embracing the scientific basis and accuracy of these treatments, Panorama Dental Center has invested in and acquired the necessary equipment and machinery to offer “Digital Dentistry” and “One Day Dentistry” to its patients.
The capabilities provided by the Cone Beam CT Scan (Carestream 8100 3D), Digital Scanner (Carestream 3600), CNC milling machine (R5 Vhf), 3D Printer (Asiga Max UV), sintering & glazing furnaces (Programmat S2 & Programmat 510), digital design software (Simplant Dentsply/Sirona & Exocad), along with knowledge and experience in these protocols, make our clinic a model of a Digital Dental Clinic. Our patients can receive treatments through innovative digital procedures exclusively within our beautiful space, all within our clinic .
