Imagina, the fair of 3D technologies that takes place every year in Monaco, is now entirely devoted to the use of 3D, laser and other technologies in dentistry to show how new techniques can help doctors to diagnose and make prostheses.
Progress in this field makes dentistry one of the most innovative disciplines in healthcare. Twenty-five manufacturers from seven different countries presented the latest developments at the Monaco event, which was inaugurated by Prince Albert.
One of the leading new technologies in this sector is braces for teeth alignment. Forget about those unsightly metal braces from your childhood – modern-day plastic braces are almost invisible and resistant to bacteria.
The Austrian company Amann Girrbach won this year’s Imagina Dental Award for its pioneering technology, which produces dental prostheses completely automatically, thereby saving 60 percent of time compared to the manual procedure, and offering more precision.
