i vote for a 3shape d800
Here's the reason that I went with 3Shape. I want to be able to send abutments to 3i, Zimmer, Nobel, CAP, or any other manufacturer that I want. I don't think that exocad designed abutments can go to all of these manufacturers. I do hate the fees though.
Are there any companies that Lease scanners? I was thinking about leasing because then I could try it out for a little while and then decide on making the big investment. I think im starting to lean more towards exocad....
We have been debating between Straumann's "Dental Wings" vs Argen's Exocad recently. I was curious if you were using Dental Wings and what your feelings were towards Straumann's support & capabilities. We've been leaning toward's Argen's Exocad offer but Straumann is offering a better deal on their Dental Wings scanner system (apart from the licensing fees). We're currently getting offers from both but with no experience on either, a little unsure which seems to be the better way to go.Maybe not, but they can go to Argen which gives you all of the same options with good quality, prices, and great warranties too. I too hate paying those fees (via Straumann) and may very well switch to an Exocad based system in the near future. Many more choices with scanners this way.
Do you do Straumann abutments exclusively?We have been debating between Straumann's "Dental Wings" vs Argen's Exocad recently.

Yuk to dental wings. I used dental wings for five years. Now I have a DOF HD running exocad. NO comparison. Exocad all the way. I can still have Straumann do certified custom abuts for me with it. But make sure the exocad you're using straumann will accept. My rep was in today ha told me that there are some relabeled versions of exocad they they don't accept. I got mine from CMD. UH OH. Am I allowed to mention him. [emoji51]
Great info. Exactly what do you mean by "relabeled versions"? I thought they were all relabeled. Maybe I will just ask Straumann rep which versions they accept.
