Outsourcet Protese-CAD-design

Denture CAD design scales in a way manual waxing never could. High case volume no longer means a growing backlog when full dentures, partial frameworks and try-ins move through a digital workflow instead of a bench technician's schedule. We design from your scans so your lab can take on more removable cases without adding chairside hours.

Why labs outsource denture CAD design

Removable cases carry a different rhythm than fixed prosthetics — a try-in stage, feedback, then a final design — and each round competes for the same bench time as every other case in the lab. Outsourcing denture CAD design separates that rhythm from your in-house capacity entirely. Try-in and final stages both move through the same portal, so a case doesn't stall waiting for a technician to free up.

Full dentures, partial frameworks and digital try-ins are all designed in exocad and 3Shape Dental System to your jaw relation record, tooth mold and shade selection, so the finished design reflects what you specified rather than a generic default setup.

What's included in every denture CAD design case

Immediate dentures are part of the standard service — send the pre-extraction scan and extraction plan and the design is built to that specification. Cast cobalt-chrome and printable partial frameworks are both supported, so the output matches whichever production method your lab uses downstream.

Digital try-ins are checked chairside against the same criteria as a conventional wax try-in: tooth position, midline, occlusal plane and lip support, before the final design proceeds. That means a digital try-in isn't a shortcut that skips verification, it's the same verification in a faster format.

Quality control and turnaround

Tooth setup and gum contouring, occlusal scheme and vertical dimension, framework retention and coverage, and fit against the edentulous ridge are checked on every case before delivery. Turnaround runs 8 to 15 hours depending on whether the case is a try-in stage or a final denture.

Revisions are unlimited within the original case scope, including try-in adjustment rounds — a denture that doesn't fit comfortably at try-in gets corrected, not shipped as final anyway.

Getting started

If your case mix includes diagnostic wax-ups ahead of a denture case, our digital wax-up service pairs naturally with this workflow for patient presentation before the final design. For the rest of what we design, see the full services overview.

Most labs start with a single try-in case to check tooth setup and turnaround against their own standard before sending regular denture volume through the portal.

Denture CAD design outsourcing fits labs of any size, from a solo denturist sending occasional cases to a high-volume lab running dozens of removable cases a week. The review standard stays identical either way — every framework and tooth setup goes through the same QC checklist regardless of how many cases arrive that week.

Send your first scan through the client portal today. Most single-arch cases are back in your queue well within the standard turnaround window, so you can quote realistic delivery dates to patients from the first appointment.
