Turning minutes into real value ⏱️​

AI is becoming one of the most impactful tools in modern dental labs—not by replacing technicians, but by helping them work smarter and faster.​

Technicians report spending around 10 minutes designing a crown manually. Across multiple cases each day, those minutes quickly add up.​

​With AI-assisted automation, labs estimate production could increase from around 40 crowns per shift to 80–120* — resulting in:​

👉🏼2–3× higher throughput​
👉🏼 $4.13 per crown at 80 units per shift​
👉🏼 $3.08 per crown at 120 units​
👉🏼 33–50% lower costs compared to a $6.25 labor-only baseline​

​Automation can also support faster turnaround times, increased capacity, and up to 2 hours saved per technician per day.​

With Automate in 3Shape Dental System, crown and bridge designs can be generated in seconds—helping labs streamline production while maintaining consistency.​

*Calculation based on North American estimates where a CAD technician earns approximately $65K annually (daily wage estimate excluding benefits and overhead), producing 40 crowns per shift, resulting in a $6.25 labor cost per crown baseline.

What? Has it been a year already since we were in Cologne for IDS 2025. Were you there?

What made it memorable for you? A specific session, a product demo or maybe a conversation that shifted how you think about digital dentistry? Something else exciting?

Let us know in the comments.

From our side, TRIOS 6 drew a lot of attention. Dentists wanted to understand how hyperspectral imaging worked in real life, not just what it promised. So, the demos ran constantly.

People spent time with Dx Plus, testing how AI-assistive diagnostics fit into their existing workflows.

The lecture sessions filled up fast. We covered everything from scan quality improvements to patient communication strategies with the DentalHealth app.

Between sessions, the real conversations happened at the booth over coffee and during one-on-one demos.

Good times. We can’t wait until the next one.

Please ask your reseller or 3Shape contact for availability of 3Shape products in your country. Dx is not cleared by the FDA for clinical use in the USA. Dx Plus is exclusively compatible with TRIOS 6 scans.

Dr. Kaveh Golestani wanted to add a second scanner to his practice, without feeling like the second scanner was a downgrade.

When his practice started growing, he faced a practical question: how do you add scanning capacity without compromising on quality?

His answer was TRIOS Core.

He already trusted his TRIOS 5 for scan quality and reliability. But adding another high-end scanner wasn't necessary for every clinic room. TRIOS Core gave him:

✔️ The same proven accuracy his patients depend on

✔️ The same ease of use his team needed
..at a price point that made expanding straightforward.

"Even though TRIOS Core is the most affordable scanner, it's still zero compromise on scan quality and ease of use," he says.

For practices like his, that matters. Patient care can't be inconsistent clinic room to clinic room. The scanning experience shouldn't feel different depending on which chair they're in.

TRIOS Core solves that. Entry-level pricing without sacrificing what counts.

Your lab handles different scan objects throughout the day. Dies, impressions, full-arch models, scan plates...

Each case brings something different.

With F8 you get the versatility to scan a variety of different cases .

The open design accommodates various scan areas, and multiple technicians can share the scanner between workstations when your production schedule gets tight.

Say hello to Dx Plus, THE 4-INDICATION SYSTEM.

With AI-assistive visualization, it helps you identify:
🦷 Surface caries
🦷 Plaque
🦷 Tooth wear
🦷 Gingival recession

The software gives you objective data that supports your clinical decisions. You can discuss findings with patients more clearly and document changes across appointments.

Treatment conversations become more concrete when patients see the visualizations themselves.

Four indications working in one system, integrated into your regular diagnostic workflow.
