The Glidewell.io in-office solution is a chairside restorative ecosystem designed to simplify the process of prescribing and delivering high-quality dental restorations. With this versatile suite of advanced technologies, clinicians gain immediate on-demand access to Glidewell Laboratories’ digital support resources and can quickly mill restorations in the office or submit cases to the lab as needed—all from a single interface.
The Glidewell.io workflow begins with an intraoral scan transferred to Glidewell’s Fastdesign.io software, which auto-designs restorations for the clinician’s approval based on algorithms derived from millions of Glidewell’s digitally produced cases. The software also serves as a communications portal to the lab, where users can prescribe cases or access technical support. Should clinicians opt for an immediate restoration, the restorative design is sent to the Fastmill.io in-office unit for chairside milling.
Owners of Align Technology’s iTero Element scanner can connect to the Glidewell.io solution upon purchasing Fastdesign.io software and a Fastmill.io unit. For those without scanners, Glidewell Dental also sells the iTero Element, which features streamlined connectivity and delivers an intuitive scanning experience that generates high-precision impressions.
Manufactured in the U.S. by Glidewell Dental, the all-electric
Fastmill.io unit harnesses cutting-edge milling strategies to swiftly and quietly produce chairside restorations ranging from BioTemps Now temporaries to definitive restorations from materials such as CAMouflage Now resin, Obsidian lithium silicate and BruxZir Now fully sintered zirconia.
The technologies that compose Glidewell.io represent an extension of tools and processes proven throughout years of Glidewell’s usage. Reducing the scale of these systems to a chairside form factor is a natural evolution for restorative dentistry. Clinicians who purchase Glidewell.io will receive in-office training and setup performed by Glidewell Dental knowledge experts, ensuring users get the most out of the system.
Components of Glidewell.io can be purchased individually or as part of various bundles designed around specific clinical needs. For more information, visit www.glidewell.io or call 844-949-7184.
