Revolutionary In-Office CAD/CAM Technology is the Perfect Addition to a State-of-the-Art Practice Bringing an out-of-date practice into the 21st century can be challenging, costly, and take years. Therefore, when the opportunity presents itself to establish a new practice from the ground up, it simultaneously offers unique possibilities for incorporating state-of-the-art technologies as opposed to buying an existing practice and renovating it. As a dentist, my objective always has been to remain on the cutting edge, but I was determined to do it right. So, when building my new practice in Orlando, Florida, I invested in state-of-the-art technologies, including Mediadent imaging software, voice activated software, and digital radiographs rather than traditional X-rays. As a result, from the start we’ve maintained a paperless, fully digital 3,000-square feet, seven operatory, high-tech practice in which we can deliver optimal care to our nearly 4,000 patients. Although I’ve been in this location for almost six years, I continue to explore new ways to improve my patients’ dental experiences. Having already conquered the goal of going digital and paperless, our most recent addition was the E4D Dentist System, an innovative and advanced chairside CAD/CAM technology. Choosing the Most Advanced Technology What ultimately made E4D the right decision for my practice was the genius of the technology and the superior quality of the end result. In my practice, I’ve continuously raised the bar for myself and my staff when it comes to patient treatments and procedures. What was good five years ago isn’t necessarily the best today, and I had been waiting for the ability to fabricate a restoration on par with my standards. I was hoping for better margins and more durable porcelain. The E4D delivers both and more. Restorations fabricated with the E4D Dentist System provide a better fit, better function, better aesthetics and, to top it off, can be completed in one visit.
