The company today announced partnerships with SILADENT Dr. Böhme & Schöps GmbH, Goslar, German and Innodema, an alliance of dental lab fabrication experts based in Belgium, both of whom become SensAble Authorized Production Centers (SAPCs).
Following on September’s appointment of other German production and milling partners, today’s new partnership appointments further expand SensAble’s dental lab market presence in Europe, where the company markets its award-winning SensAble™ Dental Lab System and the new modular configurations designed for the European market.
“We know we can add tremendous value to those dental labs looking to move from wax to digital design. We can help them to lower the production costs of dental frames, crowns and bridges and other innovative dental applications and this in an ecological-friendly way.”
As a SensAble Authorized Production Center (SAPC), SILADENT can guarantee the fit of restorations made using authorized design configurations of the SensAble Dental Lab System, and maintain quality and turnaround standards in accordance with SensAble’s SAPC program. Also an SAPC, Innodema will be offering direct metal fabrication of parts designed on the SensAble Dental Lab System in partnership with different SensAble customers located in Belgium, the Netherlands and other European countries. Direct metal fabrication is an innovative approach that is economical and ecologically-friendly fabrication to meet labs’ highest quality standards.
