Product Profile: Glidewell.io In-Office Solution

Explore the future of dentistry

Dentists can deliver high-quality, same-visit restorations to their patients while increasing the profitability and efficiency of their dental practices with the Glidewell.io in-office solution. This technology suite is designed to give dentists the power to provide a superb patient experience while staying on the leading edge of digital dental technology.

The Glidewell.io system includes the Fastmill.io in-office mill, which offers a small footprint and easy plug-and-play operation. It also includes the Fastdesign.io software and design station, which uses artificial intelligence and machine learning technology for accurate, customized design proposals. The system also requires an intraoral scanner; it connects seamlessly with the iTero Element and is fully compatible with most other scanners.

Glidewell.io is the only chairside system that can mill same-visit crowns using BruxZir, the No. 1-prescribed brand of solid zirconia and the only fully sintered zirconia for in-office use. Restorations milled from BruxZir Now are ready to deliver right from the mill, with no oven time required. Among current Glidewell.io users, BruxZir is the material of choice in a full 73% of cases.

While single-unit posterior cases that benefit from BruxZir Now show no signs of slowing down, in-office technology can also address other case types. And the materials available for doing so are constantly evolving. Glidewell.io users will soon be able to select from two materials designed for milling anterior restorations:

The upcoming release of BruxZir Esthetic Now milling blocks, an offshoot of the BruxZir brand, allows in-office fabrication of anterior crowns that combine outstanding aesthetics with the durability of BruxZir solid zirconia. As with the original BruxZir Now blocks, BruxZir Esthetic Now blocks are fully sintered and ready for use, making them unique among their competitors.

Glidewell.io also offers IPS E.max CAD milling blocks from Ivoclar Vivadent, expanding its range beyond Glidewell milling blocks to bring users one of the most popular materials on the market. IPS E.max CAD blocks are made from lithium disilicate glass-ceramic material with superb translucency and a wide array of lifelike shades.
