Glidewell’s Digital Treatment Planning for implant restorations provides dentists with comprehensive and high-precision implant case planning.

"We are always in search of ways to improve customer satisfaction, and this new process does just that," said Glidewell Laboratories COO Greg Minzenmayer. "FastTrack SurgiGuide significantly improves surgical guide turnaround time for doctors, from ten to four days."
