Experience the benefits of a streamlined workflow

Offering dental implant treatment is a great way to attract new patients and grow your practice. The treatment type has risen in popularity in recent years, and it is set to continue doing so, as dental implants provide an aesthetic and functional alternative to dentures and bridges.[i] However, providing this advanced treatment type can require significant investments in hardware and software, which is not always realistic for many dental practices. This could prevent you from accessing this excellent revenue stream, and your patients benefiting from a modern solution.
When you choose to outsource parts of the treatment and manufacturing process, you reduce the need to invest in specialist equipment in practice, allowing you to focus on providing high-quality treatment to your patients. While expanding your practice’s treatment capabilities, outsourcing aspects of your workflow can be beneficial, allowing clinicians to select aspects of the implant workflow which might be better completed outside of the practice, benefiting from additional resources and digital workflows.
Consider Smile in a Box™
Smile in a Box™ allows clinicians to access the benefits of the Straumann® digital workflow, without investing in additional hardware or software. With Smile in a Box™, providing patients with high standard implant solutions is straightforward. Throughout treatment planning and component manufacture, flexible options are available to ensure you are able to produce a solution customised to your patient’s specific needs. This means that you are in control of your patient’s treatment plan, and you are able to place the implant system when it is conveniently delivered by Straumann®.

So, how does it work?
Smile in a Box™ aims to make your work life easier. The simple workflow facilitates the creation of high-quality components, and encourages customisation at various stages. Firstly, submit your case to Smile in a Box™. Case submissions should include CBCT scans and images of the patient, as well as STL files of the patient’s anatomy. From here, you are able to decide whether you would like the steps to be outsourced, or completed in practice – starting with treatment planning. Smile in a Box™ is able to create a treatment plan based on your case data, to be reviewed and approved by you during a webinar session, keeping you in control.
Following this, Smile in a Box™ can customise your digital designs in accordance with the treatment plan, for your approval. Smile in a Box™ will then be able to produce all components with precision, and deliver them to your practice in one convenient box, ready for placement. Finally, you are able to treat your patient with the peace of mind that everything you need is available and ready-to-use.
High-quality implant systems
The Smile in a Box™ service is able to accommodate all clinical situations ranging from single tooth to fully edentulous cases. This gives the clinician the ability to choose between various dental implant systems. Smile in a Box™ gives you access to market-leading implant systems from the Straumann Group. Choose between solutions from Straumann®, Medentika®, Neodent®, and Anthogyr, enabling you to provide patients with restorations of the highest quality.
Outsourcing your implant workflow with Smile in a Box™ allows you to set high standards in your practice. Patients will be thrilled with the results of their treatment, and this will help to give your dental practice a boost.
