When we went digital with exocad we had no prior CAD/CAM experience, and got fully up to speed with CAD/CAM in just a few days. exocad for us was, and still is, very straightforward and user friendly.
Since going digital with exocad, we have been able to expand our customer base, and have grown our business exponentially.
Kevin Shi

Dental technicians who use exocad can easily complete even complex implant bar designs, which greatly enhances work efficiency. At the same time, exocad DentalCAD software is integrated with many of the world’s scanner brands. This leaves us with more freedom of choice.
Hansi Lange
Master Dental Technician, Owner Dental Labor Teuber (Germany)
When we first started working with exocad, we already had longterm experience with other popular dental CAD programs. Despite diving into the exocad experience with no training, we found we were able to design crowns and bridges that very same day. Five years and several thousand designs later, we have come to the conclusion that exocad can handle almost any case we throw at it!
Thanks to its intuitive user interface, you can work on any design without the need for extensive training, and its flexibility facilitates the design of even the most exceptional cases with ease. Every new feature exocad has provided over the years offers new possibilities and tools for handling every conceivable scenario, quickly and with no fuss.
Axel Kufner
Crown & Bridge, Department Manager Dental Arts Laboratories, Inc. (USA)
Dental Arts Laboratories, Inc. consists of 12 total locations. Throughout, we have 28 total design stations … all exocad. The software is so versatile; intuitive enough for our entry level designers to quickly get to grips with, while powerful enough for our veteran CAD designers and their most complex cases. Designing everything from crowns and bridges, bite splints, RPDs to implants and bars, the user interface brings dentistry to life with its realistic rendering and practical tools.
The decision to switch our designers to exocad years ago was largely due to exocad’s handling of the ‘out of the ordinary’ cases, large or small. Additionally, we save thousands annually on modules and updates versus mandatory license fees.
exocad has brought our ideas to life by handling anything we throw at it.
