Cadent Processes 50,000th Digital Dental Impression Case Leading the Way in the Dental Technology Revolution
 
Jacksonville, Fla. Dentist Dr. Ronald Levin Submits Milestone case;
Practice Demonstrates the Accuracy, Efficiency and Patient Satisfaction of 3-D Imaging

CARLSTADT, N.J. - September 9, 2008 - Cadent, the leading provider of 3-D digital solutions for the orthodontic and dental industries, today announced that Dr. Ronald Levin of Drs. Levin and Fetner Dental Practice in Jacksonville, Fla., recently submitted Cadent iTero’s 50,000th dental impression case. iTero is a digital impression technology that takes 3-D images for all dental restorations including crowns, bridges and cosmetic veneers.  
 
“Submitting the 50,000th case to Cadent is about more than reaching a milestone, it represents a shift in the way dentistry is practiced,” said Dr. Levin. “With its ease of use and impeccable accuracy, iTero is the standard for all dental restorations in my practice. The digital dental technology provides my patients with a comfortable dental experience by eliminating the dreaded goo commonly used in traditional impressions. With each case, it is exciting to have a dental restoration fit perfectly.”
 
“We are very proud that Dr. Levin and Progressive Dental Lab of Jacksonville, a Cadent iTero partner lab, reached this milestone in restoration cases,” said Tim Mack, Executive Vice-President and General Manager of Cadent iTero. “In Florida Dr. Levin leads the way in cutting-edge dental practices by using iTero for all dental restoration cases. Dentists throughout the United States are revolutionizing the way dental impressions are taken by utilizing the iTero system to improve productivity and efficiency within the practice, while enhancing the patient experience and achieving exceptional clinical results.”
 
iTero technology utilizes a ground breaking intra-oral scanner that takes digital images to capture the 3-D geometry of the tooth preparation area. The digital model is magnified and displayed while the patient is still in the chair. This enhanced visualization, plus real-time analytical tools, enables the clinician to make adjustments as necessary before completing the scanning process. Once the dentist approves the image, the file is sent electronically to a Cadent-partnering dental laboratory. All of this takes approximately 3 minutes of the clinicians’ time. The laboratory reviews the digital file and sends it electronically to Cadent’s manufacturing facility for milling into the physical model. Cadent returns the physical model to the local dental laboratory which applies the aesthetics and delivers the end result—a beautiful, precise-fitting restoration—to the dentist, all within standard service times.
