BIOMET 3i and Cadent announce an innovative collaboration to simplify esthetic restorations

Two leaders in the dental marketplace — BIOMET 3i LLC and Cadent, Inc. — have announced a collaboration to offer digital intraoral impressions through BIOMET 3i's patented Encode^® Impression System and Cadent's iTero^™ System.
