Open Software

Planmeca are the only manufacturer offering a CAD CAM system with open software. This means that dentists can invest in the equipment gradually at a pace that suits their budget and needs. The complete CAD CAM and milling system consists of the PlanScan, CAD CAM and PlanMill.

Each element it’s available to buy separately which allows you to start off with the PlanScan which allows you to take a digital scan of your patients’ teeth rather than using an impression, the open software allows you to send the scan to your lab for design and milling.

When you are ready to upgrade your system, you can add the PlanCAD Easy which allows you to design the crown yourself before forwarding to the lab for milling.

Alternatively, you may upgrade to the full system which allows you to digitally scan, design and mill the crown from scratch. The beauty of this system is that treatments can be done within one visit to the practice, within a 30 minute appointment slot; your nurse can take the digital scan, there is no need to store impression materials or patient impressions as digital files can be stored within your practice management software.
