Dental laboratories that use digital scan and design software from 3Shape, Dental Wings, Exocad, and Delcam can now transmit digital scan files for the production of Glidewell Laboratories' Inclusive custom implant abutments.
Dental labs that have abutment design capability can create their own customized abutment designs using Glidewell's Inclusive custom implant abutment libraries, reducing costs up to 30%, according to the company.
Inclusive custom implant abutments, available in zirconia and titanium, are priced at $129 per abutment from a digital scan file. Labs who create their abutment designs in-house save $30 per abutment using the Inclusive abutment libraries and pay $99 per abutment for most implant platforms.
The Inclusive abutment libraries support implant systems from several manufacturers, including Straumann, Nobel Biocare, Biomet 3i, Astra Tech, Neoss, and Zimmer.
