Innovative Prep Guide Technology FIRSTFIT s digital technology uses CAD/CAM to provide step-by-step guidance through the use of proprietary preparation guides. These guides allow you to prepare the tooth and seat the crown in the same appointment. Based on FIRSTFIT s design technology, each prep guide is precise and enables minimal prepping during treatment. Ideal preparation leads to ideal fit of the crown or bridge. Chairtime is minimized, patient convenience is maximized and you provide beautiful restorations in two office visits impressions and seating. Here s how the FIRSTFIT process works: 1 2 3 4 Standard impressions and bite registrations are taken and sent to a FIRSTFIT Lab. FIRSTFIT software designer designs a prep for the tooth and creates a bridge or crown around this preparation. Reduction guides are created to mirror the designed preparation. A hand-piece snaps into the guides, directing the dentist in all apparent planes in the preparation and preventing him/her from over-prepping the tooth. 5 Then, as with traditional methods, the bridge or crown is seated.

FIRSTFIT Manufacturing Process FIRSTFIT s unique software allows our designers to create a digital prep in a series of guides: mesial, distal, buccal, lingual, occlusal. Since the designer knows the prep, they then create the other piece of the puzzle--the crown or bridge and with unparalleled precision. The guide design is sent to our 3D printer, which achieves CAD/CAM mircron accuracy for precisely fitting, less invasive restorations. The restoration design is sent to a milling machine or made the old fashion way. Preparation guides are printed Impression received Case is digitally designed Restoration is milled
Innovative Prep Guide Technology Digital Preview With FIRSTFIT Technology you can preview the cut prior to production. This ensures you adequate margins and the chance for any last minute changes. No Capital Investment Even better, there is no need to for capital investment in large equipment technology (up to $100,000 investment in crown milling machine technology, which turns the in-office team into lab techs, often slowing adoption). A FIRSTFIT bridge or crown costs the same as sending a restoration to a lab! Minimal Training FIRSTFIT is simple to learn and easy to use. To begin placing FIRSTFIT restorations, a half day course is required. The course includes a hands-on component allowing you to try out the guides and tools associated. The curriculum focuses on the latest in CAD/CAM innovation providing you with the knowledge to bring the latest technology to your practice.
FIRSTFIT Bridge Patient demand is high. With over 178 million people missing a tooth in the United States**. This means there are millions of patients sitting in waiting offices around the world with NO treatment plan. Many dentists choose to leave them untreated because they don t want to reduce two healthy teeth to accommodate one missing one, as required for a bridge. Many patients are never able to afford the hoped-for implant and learn to live around their missing dentition. LESS REDUCTION OF TOOTH STRUCTURE*, 50% LESS CHAIR TIME****
