Product Leadership
The company's E4D CAD/CAM system features dental office and laboratory configurations. Both use high speed laser scanning technology to produce digital 3D impressions of teeth prepared for crown, inlay, onlay, or veneer restorations without reflective agents, such as powder or special stones, required by other CAD/CAM systems. E4D design software enables the dentist or technician to customize the restoration before the design is sent to the CNC mill for precision machining. After milling, the restoration is ready to polish and seat or stain and glaze, if desired. The system provides significant productivity improvements: for dental offices, one-visit restorations and shorter patient chair times mean greater numbers of satisfied patients, while laboratories can significantly reduce manual labor.

Technological Innovation
D4D's highly experienced in-house teams of electrical, mechanical, optical, firmware, and software engineers designed and developed the patent-pending 3D scanning, analysis, and design software; CNC milling systems; and related communications infrastructure technologies. The user interface incorporates extensive industrial design and human factors direction, which flattens the learning curve and further distinguishes the E4D system from its competition.
