Ivoclar Digital Denture Workflow for
Success

Written by Andrew Sedler

The subject of Digital Dentures is becoming a very hot topic, with many different threads of conversation. But what exactly is a Digital Denture? That definition is dependent upon the manufacturing company’s workflow.

While there are means to capture initial records 100% digitally, and it is possible to successfully fabricate dentures from digital scans alone, it is not 100% predictable at this moment in time. The workflow for a Digital Denture currently begins with quality conventional records, including impressions, and bite records.

The Ivoclar Digital Denture system is just getting started but it is already becoming the gold standard of digitally-fabricated dentures. In this article, I will highlight the workflow for the Ivoclar Digital Denture along with some of the benefits of this digital denture system.

There are 4 clinical appointments and 3 corresponding lab deliverables presented in the following workflow:

1. Appointment #1: Initial Impression

2. Lab Process #1: 3D Bite Plate Design and Fabrication

3. Appointment #2: 3D Bite Plate, Gnathometer, and Final Impression Wash

Send verified bite and final impression to Burbank Dental Lab to toth set-up design.

4. Lab Process #2 Milled Tooth Set-up

5. Appointment #3: Tooth Try-In

6. Lab Process #3: Final Denture Fabrication

  • Lab scans in and copy mills adjustment to occlusion and tooth position.
  • Tissue-colored and tooth-colored materials are milled.
