3Shape has released a new, integrated digital denture manufacturing workflow.

The workflow consists of 3Shape's Dental System CAD software, CIM Systems' SUM3D dental CAM software, and DGShape's DWX-52D 5-axis dental milling machine.

Practitioners who use 3Shape's software can choose from a number of teeth libraries for denture design. Once the dentures are designed, the digital file is milled on the DGShape milling machines with the help of the SUM3D CAM software.
