Zimmer Dental is partnering with Zfx Dental Net to enter the CAD/CAM crown and bridge market, the company announced.
Under the terms of the new agreement, Zimmer Dental will distribute Zfx open platform laboratory scanners, CAD software, and custom-milled components. Each component of the Zfx system is linked via an Internet portal that integrates the digitized patient data and facilitates the flow of information from clinician to lab to a Zfx milling center.
Zimmer Dental customers in Europe will utilize one of the existing Zfx milling centers. In the U.S., Zimmer will utilize Zfx's Carlsbad, CA, milling center to produce crown and bridge components, bars, and titanium and zirconia abutments.
