Biomet 3i and Renishaw plc- Now Providing the Latest Digital Dentistry Solutions to Laboratories, Dental Implant Professionals and Patients
Biomet, Inc. announces the collaboration of its subsidiary, Biomet 3i, an
industry leader in implant dentistry, and Renishaw plc, a leading manufacturer
of in-lab dental scanning systems, to offer comprehensive digital solutions to
dental professionals and patients worldwide.
Building on its portfolio of Patient Specific CAD/CAM Restorative Products,
Biomet 3i is expanding the boundaries of a traditional "dental implant" company
by providing a series of innovative digital solutions from which laboratories,
clinicians and patients can benefit. For Renishaw, which supplies precision
engineering products to sectors as diverse as aerospace and neurosurgery, it
represents the opportunity to spread its expertise in dental manufacturing to a
wider global audience.
These digital solutions offered by Biomet 3i and Renishaw include:
* 3i incise Copings and Frameworks;
* Renishaw contact scanners;
* 3i incise CAD software; and
* Renishaw in-lab milling machines
Using the Renishaw scanner and 3i incise CAD software, laboratories can obtain
broader access to a wide range of dental milling options, including the ability
to scan precision copy milled bar patterns.* Laboratories utilizing the
ProceraForte Scanner can also benefit from all of these options by using the 3i
incise CAD software.
Clinicians can now offer patients 3i incise Copings and Frameworks in Zirconia
and Cobalt Chrome** and precision copy milled bars.* These options are patient
specific and designed to result in beautifully crafted new smiles.
"We feel that this partnership will provide our mutual dental customers with
unsurpassed access to the latest in digital dentistry technology," said Maggie
Anderson, president of Biomet 3i. Sir David McMurtry, Chairman and Chief
Executive of Renishaw plc agreed, adding, "Renishaw is thrilled to be combining
its innovative engineering and CAD/CAM capabilities with Biomet 3i`s renowned
clinical excellence and international sales and marketing expertise."
