3Shape will soon be adding a free and fully integrated AI-driven crown design application and several workflow innovations to its 3Shape Dental System 2024 software to significantly enhance efficiency and digitization for dental labs.
"As the very first employee hired at 3Shape 25 years ago, I’ve witnessed CAD/CAM evolve from a bold vision into the industry standard. The rapid adoption of digital workflows by both labs and practices has been remarkable. That’s why lab technicians need to experience the speed, automation, and convenience of our new Dental System 2024 software," says Rune Fisker, Senior Vice President of Product Strategy at 3Shape.
At today’s LMT Lab Day and the upcoming IDS in Germany, 3Shape will introduce several new and innovative upgrades to its 3Shape Dental System software for labs that include integrated and free AI-driven design automation, faster case management, 3Shape LMS software updates and workflow integration, TruAbutment ioConnect partnership, and seamless cloud-based licensing.
1. AI Powered Design Proposals – Now Free with 3Shape LabCare*
Labs will receive high-quality AI-powered editable design proposals for crowns, inlays, and onlays direct from 3Shape Automate when opening cases or desktop scanning.
2. Enhanced efficiency with new Dental System 2024 software
3. New integrations for 3Shape LMS
4. TRIOS ioConnect Workflow for All-on-X Treatments
5. Cloud Licensing: Freedom from Physical Dongles
3Shape is eliminating its physical software license dongles and moving instead to a cloud-based licensing system. The cloud license will connect to the 3Shape Account and provide labs with a clear overview of all their purchased software.
Having the software license on the cloud will also simplify software updating and ensure labs always benefit from the latest functionality and improvements.

Dental System 2024 marks a new era in digital dentistry by providing labs with enhanced speed, automation, and convenience. With AI-driven efficiency, intelligent integrations, and software innovations, this latest release ensures that dental lab professionals can focus on what matters most – delivering exceptional service to their customers.
