Dentistry in the digital world The digitisation of dentistry and dental technology has helped to realise real life economic and technical gains. A laboratory can improve throughput by using fast and powerful CAD software such as Renishaw Dental Studio (RDS) and employing Renishaw’s ISO13485 quality controlled manufacturing services. This allows the laboratory to operate a flexible working environment, potentially up-skilling trusted employees to work on higher value items and in turn realising a higher income for the business. Add to this the reassurance of Renishaw’s 10 year framework guarantee...

High accuracy scanning - DS10 The DS10 scanner uses a patented non-cartesian mechanism. Unlike conventional designs, this provides a lightweight and cost-effective structure that enables high-accuracy processing in a compact device. This means that even the smallest lab can accommodate a scanner. DS10 is based on an innovative but well proven mechanism, providing exceptional accuracy in a compact, lightweight package. With accuracy tested to ISO 10360-4, the DS10 achieves superior accuracy through the use of Renishaw’s contact scanning technology which has been used in thousands of measurement...

High speed scanning - DS30 The use of advanced ‘blue light’ technology allows quicker and more accurate scanning into narrow and deep areas than conventional dental scanners. Using only the smaller blue light wavelength, the scanner does not require a door, making it spacious, easy and quick to access. The blue light technology allows the scanner to produce images accurate to 10 microns. Intelligent multi-view allows the selection of the best possible angles to acquire the required data. Impression scanning is fast and accurate, allowing the digital manufacturing process to proceed without the...

Renishaw Dental Studio Advanced dental CAD Renishaw Dental Studio (RDS), powered by Exocad™, is a feature-rich dental CAD package offering an intuitive design environment. Centred around a simple wizard style workflow, RDS allows for rapid progression up a shallow learning curve, allowing for a fast return on investment. RDS offers a large array of design and analytical tools as standard to enable efficient scanning and design of dental frameworks and accurate morphing of anatomical features. By offering further optional modules, RDS can extend its features making it a flexible offering that...

Hybrid scanning Renishaw’s unique hybrid scanning system brings together two distinct scanning technologies into an efficient and accurate working partnership. The DS10 uses highly accurate scanning methods to ensure great fit, particularly on implant frameworks. Renishaw’s latest scanner, the DS30, uses blue light scanning to rapidly capture data and allow time savings in the lab. By combining the data from both scanners through RDS, it is possible to scan almost any restoration quickly and accurately. Benefits of hybrid scanning: • Fast bulk data capture of soft tissue, dentition and wax or...

Implant module Abutment and screw-retained bridge design Adding the implant module to Renishaw Dental Studio opens up further design possibilities enabling a range of implant supported structures to be quickly and efficiently crafted. Design all aspects of implant restorations from custom abutments, screw retained crowns and implant bridges for numerous implant platforms. Combined with Renishaw’s unique hybrid scanning technology you can be assured of a reliable and consistent fit. Hybrid scanning capability Angled screw holes Custom abutments Screw retained crowns Concurrent crown/bridge and...

Design dental bars The bar module allows both fast and easy realisation of standard dental bars, as well as advanced custom bar design. Attachments or retentions can be added to the bar, cylindrical holes and arbitrary geometries can be cut out in order to bond and retain pre-fabricated attachments onto the bar. Complex clinical situations can be designed with ease to allow for maximum patient comfort. Producing bars with optimal fitting requires an ultra-precise scanner, such as DS10, as part of Renishaw's hybrid system, to ensure high process reliability.

Virtual articulator add-on module The virtual articulator allows you to bring familiar design procedures into the digital world. By allowing you to modify a number of parameters, the virtual articulator gives extra control to design full contour morphology for complex cases. Control parameters such as: • Bennett angle • Condylar angle • Immediate side shift • Incisal needle length

Model creator module Create physical models Model creator gives you the ability to create physical models from intra-oral scan data or from impression scans. The model creator module allows you to design models with detachable segments using pre-manufactured bases and monolithic models where no additional parts are required.
