Dental Practice Management Software integrations

The 3Shape Unite platform now integrates with Dental Practice Management Software. Dental professionals can setup their practice management integrations via the Unite Store. The integration enables professionals to automate their patient management via Unite and avoid workflow manual errors like filling in forms twice, save steps, and even open Unite directly from the practice management system for faster, more efficient workflows.

3Shape Automate - AI powered design platform for crowns & nightguards

Since launch, 3Shape Automate has delivered over 400,000 designs at a 90% acceptance rate to dental professionals. The AI powered 24/7 self-service design service provides dental designs for crowns and nightguards. Geared to dental lab technicians needing to cope with rush periods and overflow orders, 3Shape Automate is a completely automated service. Dental technicians simply provide their material, manufacturing, and contacts and occlusion preferences and Automate sends back a dental design in as little as five minutes - created entirely by AI technology. The technician can accept the design, edit it in 3Shape Dental System, or instead, decline the design at no cost.

*The algorithm in Model Maker creates a model with hollowing and drain-holes. In some instances, i.e., when users do quadrant scans instead of full arch scans, the algorithm will choose to create a solid model to ensure mechanical stability.
