Patients who are being fitted with a prosthetic have usually been suffering for quite some time, and are very reserved when it comes to "false teeth". Will they fit? What will I look like if I laugh with my false teeth in? Will others notice I am wearing false teeth? Dentists and dental technicians have to alleviate these fears and convince patients that their new teeth are going to restore, not just functionality but also quality of life.
That's not always easy, though, because words can never say as much as a picture. That is why VITA Zahnfabrik has developed a software program to enhance communication between dentist/dental technician and patient. It makes it possible to involve patients as early as the planning stage and to visualize their prosthetics directly on a computer screen.
