Premier dental shade matching system uses cloud-based software to enable real-time lab/dental office communication.
Issaquah, Wash., January 23, 2016 – ShadeWave has launched the next generation of its dental shade matching system, which uses advanced science and improved algorithms to change the way dental labs and practices communicate, share information and create accurate shades.
The cloud-based software is accessible from anywhere and easy to use. Dental offices upload patient photos and a shade reference, choose a lab, and create a case. The lab is instantly notified of the case and then ShadeWave’s advanced algorithm creates a detailed map showing shade, translucency and value for the dental lab to follow when making the crown, bridge or other dental lab product.
This groundbreaking technology was inspired by a common dental industry need: the ability to accurately match the various shades in natural teeth when making crowns. As a result of ShadeWave’s extensive testing and development, labs can now produce the most accurate shades possible in dental lab products.
ShadeWave has become the preferred shade-matching system for a growing number of dental labs and dentists in the U.S., Canada and internationally, including:
- Microdental Laboratories
- daVinci Dental Studios
- The Aurum Group
- Modern Dental Laboratory USA
- Issaquah Dental Laboratory, Inc.
“We have been using the latest version of ShadeWave with my lab for about 9 months. It’s a great system if your lab is on board and trained well. It doesn’t replace the talent of the ceramist – it just gives the ceramist lots of information needed to create a great result. We use it for both posterior and anterior shade matching. All the assistants know how to use it and it’s pretty foolproof from the dental office standpoint.” said Dr. Scott Rice, Rice Dentistry.
ShadeWave President Dennis Braunston has years of experience in teaching dental digital photography, imaging and case presentation. ShadeWave was developed to meet his clients’ needs for more accurate shade matching. “No other software system comes closer to matching shade, translucency and value than ShadeWave,” he said.
