How it compares
Technology companies approach dentistry from different angles: Align and 3Shape emphasize digital orthodontic or scanning workflows; Planmeca and Dentsply Sirona span equipment, imaging and software; Nobel Biocare focuses on implant-based restoration; Ivoclar focuses on materials and laboratory workflows. These categories overlap, so compare the official specifications and ask the dentist which option fits your care.
For patients at Hollywood Smile NY
Ivoclar is a materials-and-workflow reference; the dentist and laboratory determine which restorative material is suitable for an individual case. Our East Flatbush office can explain the tools available for your visit after examination and X-ray when indicated.
