The DL-plus dental laboratory management software from Jenmar International and IOS Technologies' FastScan digital impression system are now interoperable.
Using the open XML standard Universal Dental Exchange (UDX), an IOS Technologies and Jenmar customer can now exchange case data between the two systems. A laboratory can receive digital case orders from their dentist using the IOS FastScan system, and those cases will transfer seamlessly to the DL-plus software.
The IOS FastScan system also supports "pulling" case information from the DL-plus software using Web services Jenmar has published. These services create and stream UDX-formatted case data to the FastScan software so that labs can create a case in the IOS scanning control software without retyping the case data, according to the companies.
