SICAT IMPLANT & SEETHROUGH STUDIO
As part of the collaboration, SICAT Implant can now be used in
combination with Seethrough Studio, the software platform for all
W&H imaging products. Users therefore benefit from both the
outstanding image quality of W&H’s CBCT units—Seethrough
Max and Seethrough Flex—as well as from 3D diagnosis and planning with
SICAT Implant.
“Digital dentistry must be both powerful and easy to use. Our goal is
to provide dental professionals with a solution that significantly
simplifies their daily workflows—fast, flexibly, and intuitively. From
X-ray imaging with Seethrough, to diagnosis and digital 3D implant
planning with the SICAT Implant software, all the way to final implant
placement using SICAT surgical guides and Implantmed,” says Jochen
Kusch, Managing Director of SICAT.
SICAT IMPLANT – FAST, PRECISE, AND EFFICIENT 3D IMPLANT PLANNING
With the SICAT Implant software, implants can be planned not only
efficiently, but fast and intuitively. Thanks to the user-friendly
interface, users without prior experience in digital implant planning
can work with precision—while minimizing the time required.
The software includes an extensive and continuously updated implant
database featuring more than 13,000 implants, abutments, and sleeve
systems from all major implant manufacturers. Autofocus for objects,
360° rotation around the focal point and the implant, collision
warnings, and the ability to match any CBCT DICOM data with STL, SSI,
and SIXD files are just some of the powerful features the software
offers.
A PARTNERSHIP FOR THE FUTURE
“We are delighted to be partnering with SICAT—together, we can offer
our users genuine added value. Combining the SICAT Suite and Seethrough
Studio enhances processes and expands functionality. This makes the
day-to-day work of oral surgeons and implantologists even more
efficient,” says Andreas Brandstätter, product director for oral surgery
and implantology at the W&H Group.
But that’s not all—W&H and SICAT aim to set new benchmarks in the
future and provide optimal support to oral surgeons at every stage of
their treatment process.
