SICAT and Vatech America Forge Software Partnership to Enhance Dental Imaging

Advancing Dental Care Through Integrated Technology

Vatech America, a renowned manufacturer of dental equipment, has entered into a software partnership with SICAT. This collaboration integrates SICAT’s suite of applications with Vatech’s Ez3D-iTM, the native 3D imaging software that powers Vatech’s range of 3D imaging systems.

Comprehensive Suite of Applications

The partnership brings the SICAT Suite, which includes Implant, Endo, and Air applications, to users of Vatech’s full line of 3D CBCT products. This integration aims to enhance implant planning and treatment precision. Additionally, SICAT’s surgical guides and therapeutic appliances will be available to Vatech users, offering a more comprehensive solution for dental practitioners.

AI-Driven Precision and Efficiency

One of the key features of this collaboration is the incorporation of artificial intelligence in the SICAT workflow. Louis DeFilippo, vice president of sales for Vatech America, emphasised the importance of this development:

“Improving the implant workflow and ease of use is a guiding principle for Vatech. This partnership with SICAT adds a world-class surgical guide solution to the Vatech Ez3Di software suite for all Vatech clients.”

The AI-powered system enables the creation of precise and accurate surgical guides for implantology and endodontic surgery. It also facilitates airway analysis, which is crucial for managing obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) through SICAT’s OPTISLEEP therapeutic appliance.

Same-Day Results and Enhanced Patient Care

The integration of these technologies aims to elevate patient care by often achieving same-day results. This rapid turnaround not only benefits patients but also strengthens the competitiveness of dental practices.

Craig Hennings, president of SICAT-US, highlighted the benefits of this partnership:

“Today’s dental consumer deserves the best possible treatment options. The integration of SICAT Suite with Vatech’s full line of 3D Imaging Equipment now allows dentists to provide their patients with an ideal experience.”

Optimised Digital Workflow

The collaboration between SICAT and Vatech offers dentists an optimised, fully digital chairside workflow. This includes SICAT’s RAPID DIGITALGUIDE for in-office 3D printing, which provides dentists with a ready-to-print STL file in less than 20 minutes, compatible with all 3D printers.

Expanding Opportunities for Dental Professionals

This partnership also opens new avenues for CEREC owners. As DeFilippo explains, it “creates a new path for CEREC owners to utilize the equipment they love for digital impressions and CAD/CAM with Vatech 3D innovations.”

In conclusion, this collaboration between SICAT and Vatech America represents a significant step forward in dental imaging technology, promising to enhance both patient care and dental practice efficiency through advanced, integrated solutions.
