Send Cases to Our Dental Laboratory
Dentists can send cases to our dental laboratory using either digital impressions or conventional impressions. Our laboratory supports modern digital workflows as well as traditional case submissions, allowing dental offices to choose the method that best fits their clinical workflow. Digital cases can be transmitted through intraoral scanners such as 3Shape TRIOS, iTero, Medit, and CEREC systems. Conventional impressions using PVS materials or physical models can also be shipped to our laboratory for fabrication. Whether the case involves porcelain veneers, zirconia crowns, implant restorations, or full-mouth rehabilitation, our technicians carefully review each case before fabrication begins to ensure proper planning and predictable results.The Art of Aesthetics
Send Digital Cases Using Intraoral Scanners
Dentists can send digital impressions to our dental laboratory using modern intraoral scanner systems. Digital workflows allow faster case submission, improved accuracy, and easier communication between the dental office and the laboratory. Once the digital scan is received, our technicians review the file quality, margins, occlusion, and overall preparation before beginning the fabrication process.
Our laboratory accepts digital cases from several major scanner platforms, including 3Shape TRIOS, iTero, Medit, and CEREC systems. These digital files integrate directly into our CAD/CAM workflow for the design and fabrication of cosmetic and restorative cases.
Digital case submission is commonly used for restorations such as porcelain veneers, zirconia crowns, implant restorations, bridges, and full-mouth rehabilitation cases. By using digital impressions, dentists can transmit cases quickly while improving the precision and predictability of the final restoration.
Send Conventional Impressions to Our Dental Laboratory
Dentists may also send conventional impressions and physical models to our dental laboratory for case fabrication. Many dental offices continue to use traditional impression materials such as PVS because they remain reliable for capturing detailed margins and occlusal relationships.
When sending conventional impressions, please ensure that the impressions are free of bubbles, voids, or distortions around the preparation margins. Clear margins and accurate bite registration allow our technicians to design restorations that fit properly and require minimal adjustment during delivery.
Once the impressions are received, our technicians carefully inspect the models before beginning the fabrication process. Conventional impressions can be used for many types of cases, including porcelain veneers, zirconia crowns, implant restorations, bridges, and full-mouth rehabilitation treatments.
Information to Include With Every Case
To ensure accurate fabrication, dentists should include clear and complete instructions with every case sent to our dental laboratory. Detailed case information allows our technicians to understand the clinical objectives and fabricate restorations that meet both functional and aesthetic expectations.
Important information typically includes the type of restoration requested, material selection, shade information, and any specific aesthetic instructions. For cosmetic cases such as porcelain veneers or full-mouth rehabilitation, photographs, smile design references, and shade tabs can help our technicians better interpret the desired outcome.
Providing clear instructions helps reduce misunderstandings and minimizes the need for remakes or adjustments. The more detailed the communication between the dental office and the laboratory, the more predictable the final restoration will be for both the dentist and the patient.
Packaging and Shipping Instructions
When sending conventional impressions or models to our dental laboratory, proper packaging helps protect the case materials during shipping. Impressions, models, and bite registrations should be securely placed in a sturdy box with adequate cushioning to prevent movement or damage while in transit.
Please ensure that the case includes the prescription form, shade information, and any additional instructions needed for fabrication. If photographs, diagrams, or design references are available, they may also be included or sent separately by email to assist with case planning.
Once the case is packaged, it can be shipped using your preferred carrier. If your office requires assistance with shipping arrangements, please contact our laboratory and we can provide guidance to ensure the case is delivered safely and efficiently.
Digital Files and Case Communication
For digital cases, clear communication between the dental office and the dental laboratory is essential. When submitting digital scans, dentists should include detailed case notes describing the restoration type, material preference, shade selection, and any aesthetic goals for the case.
High-quality photographs can significantly improve communication for cosmetic cases. Images of the patient’s smile, shade tabs, and close-up views of the preparation allow our technicians to better understand the desired outcome. These references help guide the design and layering process, especially for restorations such as porcelain veneers and aesthetic crowns.
Digital communication also allows dentists to provide additional information quickly if questions arise during fabrication. By maintaining clear communication throughout the process, both the dental office and the laboratory can work together to achieve predictable restorative results.
Nationwide and Worldwide Case Acceptance
Our dental laboratory accepts cases from dental offices across the United States and internationally. Dentists can submit cases through digital scanners or by shipping conventional impressions and models to our laboratory.
Because digital workflows allow immediate transmission of scans, many dentists prefer sending cases electronically through intraoral scanner platforms. However, traditional impressions can also be shipped using standard carriers, allowing dentists to choose the method that best fits their practice workflow.
Whether the case involves porcelain veneers, zirconia crowns, implant restorations, or complex full-mouth rehabilitation, our technicians review each case carefully before fabrication begins. Dentists from both domestic and international practices rely on our laboratory for cosmetic and restorative dental cases.
