In modern dentistry, smooth and efficient collaboration between dental practices and laboratories is not just desirable but essential. It forms the backbone of high-quality patient care and influences both clinical outcomes and the economic efficiency of treatment. Digitalization has revolutionized the possibilities for cooperation in recent years: digital workflows, intraoral scanners, and CAD/CAM technologies make it possible to standardize processes, minimize errors, and optimize communication.
This article is aimed equally at dentists and dental technicians, showing how structured processes, modern technology, and transparent communication can establish effective collaboration.
