Due to the large volume of DMEs we manage, we cannot provide a searchable list or locate specific ones directly. If a required DME is missing when you submit a case, it will be placed on hold. We will then request you send us the DME so our IT department can install it on our servers and proceed with your case. To expedite this process, you can upload the DME to your account in advance.
We also cannot provide a list of abutments or scan flags, as these depend on the specific implant kit selected for each order. We do not recommend implant systems or kits; this must come directly from the doctor.
The choice of implant kit is crucial, as it directly impacts the fit and design of the case. Incorrect selections can affect the accuracy and success of the final result. Ensuring the correct implant kit and components are specified by the doctor is essential for the best outcome.
In our design process, the selection of implant kits is vital for accuracy and success. Given the vast number of implant kits and components, we are unable to provide a comprehensive list of abutments or scan flags. Understanding these details and their impact on the overall design is crucial.
Customization and Compatibility:
- System-Specific Components: Implant kits are designed to be compatible with specific implant systems and may include components unique to each system.
- Customization: Some kits may include custom components based on the specific needs of the patient and the implant system used.
Implant Libraries: Collections of digital representations of different implant systems and components, including various implant types, abutments, and other related parts. These libraries help in accurately designing and planning implant restorations based on the specific implant system being used.
Scan Bodies: Digital or physical components that help capture the precise position of implants in a digital model. Scan bodies are used during the scanning process to ensure that the position of the implant is accurately represented in the final design.
Scan Flags: Serve as reference points to aid in aligning and integrating scanned data with the physical implant placement.
Why We Can't Provide a List:
-
Custom Nature of Implant Kits: Each implant kit is unique, with specific abutments, scan flags, and other components tailored to particular systems. Because there are thousands of different DMEs and implant systems available, creating a comprehensive list is not feasible.
-
Dependence on Doctor's Specification: We cannot recommend or suggest specific implant systems or kits. This information must come directly from the doctor or dental professional overseeing the case. The choice of implant kit is essential and should align with the doctor’s clinical decisions and patient needs.
Impact on Case Design:
-
Fit and Accuracy: The implant kit selected determines the type of abutments and scan flags that will be used in the design. These components are critical for ensuring that the final prosthetic fits accurately and functions properly. Any incorrect or mismatched components can lead to issues with fit, alignment, and overall success of the case.
-
Design Precision: The specifics of the implant kit influence the design parameters of the case. Accurate design and fitting depend on the correct identification and use of the components associated with the chosen implant system. Misalignment or incorrect components can compromise the precision of the final result or generate errors during the design process.
What You Should Do:
-
Provide Accurate Information: Ensure that the implant kit and all relevant details are provided by the doctor. This includes specifying any unique requirements or components needed for the case.
-
Upload DMEs in Advance: To streamline the process, consider uploading the DMEs to your account ahead of time. This helps us have everything ready for your case, reducing the chance of delays. 3Shape Dental System - Sending a 3Shape DME file to 3Shape Design Services
-
Direct Communication: If there are any uncertainties or special requirements regarding the implant kit, communicate these directly to us. This will help in avoiding any potential issues and ensure that the case progresses smoothly.
By adhering to these guidelines, you help ensure that your case is processed efficiently and with the highest level of precision. If you have any questions or need further assistance, please feel free to contact us at designservices@3shape.com
