Frequently Asked Questions

Where do I send my physical records?

AvaDent Digital Dental Solutions
15730 North 83rd Way, Ste 101

Can you use my STL design file (ie. 3Shape, ExoCad) to fabricate a final denture?

We do accept STL scan files of impressions and reference dentures; then we will design the denture using our proprietary software. But we cannot make a denture from an STL design file created by a 3rd party.

Can you fabricate my existing denture into a final AvaDent?

Yes, however, it will never be an EXACT duplicate, but we do match very closely to the original denture. You can see the referenced denture in the Design phase when you review the setup.

Can I make a payment online?

AvaDent has launched a new payment system called PayFabric. Integrating the payment system into our platform, making it easier and simple for customers to pay their invoices. Please call customer support at 480-275-7144.

What is the difference between XCL-1 and XCL-2?

Both dentures are monolithic, fully milled digital dentures. XCL stands for “eXtreme Cross Link,” signifying a highly durable material.

The XCL-1 denture features monochromatic teeth (single-layer dentin base), while the XCL-2 denture offers polychromatic teeth (single-layer dentin base with an additional enamel layer).

What is a Bouma Try-In denture and a WTI denture?

Both products are try-in dentures.

A BTI stands for a Bouma Try-In created by Dr. Lars Bouma. The Bouma Try-In is a monolithic (“one-piece”) fully milled or printed Try-In made entirely out of the tooth color of your choosing from the available shade catalog in our system.

A WTI stands for a Wagner Try-In created by Dr. Stephen Wagner. The WTI is a printed Try-In denture base made entirely out of the tooth color of your choosing from the available shade catalog in our system. The teeth are printed individually for the maxillary anterior teeth and printed as a block of mandibular anterior teeth. The teeth are set in a special wax for easy manipulation and adjustment. The posteriors are printed or a block of wax rims, depending on your patient’s needs.

How do I order a remake of a denture with or without changes?

To order a remake please log-in to AvaDent Dashboard and select Orders. Search for the order of your patient by name or case number. Once you have the case pulled up you will see an option for “Place a Follow-Up Order” that is indicated by a “+” sign. Once you select this you will be prompted to choose 1 of 4 options for what kind of follow up order is needed for your patient’s treatment plan. Follow each prompt from top to bottom. What you select first affects what you can select next.

What if there are problems with the denture I received?

This depends on the nature of the problem. Contact Customer Service at customerserviceus@avadent.com, contact the clinical support team at clinicalsupport@avadent.com or call us at 480-275-7144 to discuss the case.

What is your warranty policy?

What records do I need to send?

In general, we will always need an accurate final impression showing these key factors: Midline, Centric Relation, Occlusal Vertical Dimension, Anterior Tooth Size, Lip Support, Incisal Edge Location. For a single arch we will also need an opposing record.  The denture will only be as good as the records received.

How long will my case take to complete?

Once we receive your records and all required information, we begin the digital process. Within 48 hours, depending on when the order and complete information are received, we will send you the digital setup for review. You will be asked to approve or request changes if you opted to preview the design. After the design setup is approved or auto-approved, it will take six (6) business days to complete the manufacturing of your denture.

We then ship the case via FedEx with free 2-day shipping. Please note, if the digital setup is not approved promptly, the case will be placed on hold until the design is approved, which may delay the process. If you need cases expedited, please indicate this on the prescription, email us, or contact us directly. The AvaDent Dashboard will automatically update the estimated return date once the design is approved or auto-approved, so please consider this when scheduling your patients.

What tooth molds are in your digital library?

We offer Dentsply Portrait, Ivoclar BlueLine (SR Vivodent DCL), Ivoclar IvoStar, Candular NFC+ Candulor TCR moulds. CLICK HERE to see mould options.

How do I send digital files?

Upon submitting a prescription through the AvaDent Dashboard, you will receive a notification for a Records Request. Please ensure that you select the "Submit/Ship" option and upload your records digitally. Do not fill out the physical records section unless you are sending physical records, as this may result in an unnecessary delay in processing your case.
