5. Digital LAB

Dental Lab plays a very important role in fabricating perfect dental products. This requires the lab to have modern equipment such as CAD / CAM dental system and lab technicians who have mastered both technical skills and cosmetic sense. Dental products must meet the technical requirements such as finishing, sides, colors, teeth shape, etc.

Especially, implant restoration is more difficult than normal dental restorations. Products that do not meet the requirements of quality and cosmetic will be removed and remade from the beginning. The teeth that do not fit tightly to each other are likely to cause bad breath and gingivitis, in more serious cases it can cause inflammation around the implant which result in the implant fall out or break the implant.
