From Intraoral Scan to Perfect Physical Model Overnight.
While digital dentistry is growing rapidly, many complex implant cases still require a physical model to verify contacts, occlusion, and ceramic layering. China Dental Design offers a specialized Implant Model CAD Design service that turns your intraoral scans into flawless, print-ready STL files. We handle the complex analog library management and offset calibrations so your US lab can focus entirely on printing and finishing.
Technical CAD Engineering Specifications
The success of a printed implant model lies entirely in the “Offset” settings. We engineer our Implant Model CAD Design to match your specific 3D printer and resin to ensure the digital analog seats perfectly without spinning or cracking the printed model:
Analog & Tissue Management
- Calibrated Analog Fit (Offset): We digitally adjust the internal diameter (e.g., +0.03mm or +0.05mm) based on your specific printer’s shrinkage factor.
- Removable Gingiva Mask: We design a separate soft tissue STL. This allows your ceramists to remove the tissue to inspect the implant margin and replace it to verify exact emergence profiles.
- Drainage Holes: Air-escape channels are engineered into the bottom of the analog socket to ensure fully seated analogs without hydraulic pressure build-up.
Model Architecture
- Hollowed Models: We hollow out the model base (2-3mm wall thickness) to save your lab significant resin costs and drastically speed up your print time.
- Articulator Interface: We can add 3Shape/Exocad articulator pins or design the model with a specific base profile (e.g., Vertex, Baumann) for easy mounting.
- Digital ID Tagging: Patient Name and Case ID are embossed directly on the side of the model for foolproof identification in a busy lab.
Comprehensive Library Compatibility
Our CAD team supports all major “Digital Analog” libraries used in the US market. Simply tell us which physical analog library you keep in stock:
- 3rd Party Solutions: Elos Medtech, Dess, TruAbutment, Nt-Trading, Preat.
- OEM Solutions: Nobel Biocare, Straumann, Zimmer Biomet, BioHorizons.
Seamless Overnight Digital Workflow
- Secure Upload: Upload Intraoral Scans (Upper/Lower/Bite) via our 100% HIPAA-compliant secure portal.
- Prescribe: Specify the Implant System and the Analog Brand you use (e.g., “Nobel Active RP using Elos Analogs”), along with your preferred printer offset.
- Expert Design: We execute the design natively in 3Shape/Exocad and deliver 3 print-ready STL files overnight: Model, Gingiva Mask, and Antagonist.
- Print & Assemble: Download the files the next morning. Print, wash, cure, and snap in your analogs perfectly.
