PIC pro at Dentaal Tema

Dentaal Tema, located in Bruges, Belgium, has successfully completed a 3-day on-site PIC pro training with their new PIC system. This innovative laboratory, staffed by a team of over 50 professionals, offers a comprehensive range of services for dentists seeking quality and added value. One of the owners, Wouter Leyssens, DT, is also the co-founder of Dental Bootcamp, which provides intensive hands-on training supported by theoretical protocols.

As a part of the Corus Dental network, Dentaal Tema is integrated into a network of top-tier dental laboratories across Europe. Corus assists dentists in the digital transformation of modern dentistry through innovative and distinctive products and services.

“We have a strong focus on digital.”

With a client base of over 200 dental offices in Belgium, Dentaal Tema has already prioritized digital dentistry to maximize efficiency. Despite this, many clinics still utilize an analog workflow. Recognizing that many of their clients work on substantial, full-arch cases and already use intraoral scanners, Dentaal Tema aims to help these dental offices add the missing piece to their digital workflow, boosting overall productivity.

“We need more accuracy.”

In their quest for a digital solution to support their high volume of customers, Dentaal Tema discovered the PIC system. Leyssens identified accuracy issues when placing prostheses as a significant challenge for both his team and their customers. Uncertainty on the fit of the prosthesis not only consumes valuable time but also leads to more money spent. Learning about the guarenteed passive fit offered by the PIC system, he realized it was the optimal choice for Dentaal Tema and its associated dental offices.

“We strongly believe that this will help us to help our customer and our patients to have better dental solutions.”

After their hands-on experience with the PIC system during the training, Leyssens and his team saw immediate benefits. The PIC system allowed for significant time savings by eliminating steps required by analog workflows, such as verification jigs and try-ins. The PIC pro workflow provided a framework for the team at Dentaal Tema to consistently delivery a predictable passive fit.

"Have a better guided surgery."

Working closely with various dental offices, it is crucial for the laboratory to maintain seamless communication to ensure optimal results with the final prosthesis. The design of the PIC transfers improves visibility during open flap surgical situations. The team found that capturing the PIC file using the PIC system was not only the easiest but also the quickest part of the entire process.

By integrating innovative solutions, they aim to enhance efficiency, accuracy, and outcomes for both their clients and their patients. As they continue to support their customers through all stages of dental restorations, Dentaal Tema continues to support their mission to provide high-quality solutions for dentists and patients alike.
