Glidewell Dental will now distribute Align Technology’s iTero Element intraoral scanner along with the new glidewell.io In-Office Solution, a chairside restorative ecosystem designed to simplify the process of prescribing and delivering laboratory-quality restorations.
The scanner will feature Glidewell’s fastdesign.io software, which serves to auto-design restorations for the clinician's approval or to communicate with a lab's digital design technicians, according to a press release.
Final designs can be used to prescribe a laboratory milled restoration, or sent to the fastmill.io In-Office Unit for immediate chairside milling.
The collaboration is said to make same-day restorations more efficient and accessible.
