The partnership will combine Arfona’s additive manufacturing technology with online laboratory services from Impress3D and teledentistry software and services from Dentulu.
“Traditionally, a dental patient had to visit a physical dental office 4 or 5 times for treatment, and any resulting prosthetic took weeks to be made in a commercial laboratory,” said Justin Marks, founder and CEO of Arfona, according to an April 14 news release. “Through our partnership with Impress3D and Dentulu, patients now have the option to see a dentist virtually and receive their 3D printed replacement tooth in days without physically visiting a dental office.”
Arfona expects to launch the teledentistry services for tooth replacement next month.
