Exocad ChairsideCAD 3.1 Rijeka

Exocad ChairsideCAD 3.1 Rijeka

Exocad ChairsideCAD 3.1 Rijeka is a streamlined, user-friendly dental CAD software optimized for speed and simplicity in a clinical setting. Part of the renowned exocad DentalCAD portfolio, this “Chairside” variant allows dentists to design a restoration in minutes after taking a digital impression (intraoral scan). It focuses on guided, semi-automated workflows with intelligent suggestions, enabling clinicians to go from scan to mill in a single appointment without needing the full complexity of the laboratory-oriented DentalCAD.

🦷 Primary Users

Exocad ChairsideCAD  is a specialized CAD (Computer-Aided Design) software designed for Dentists (especially those practicing Chairside dentistry), Dental Technicians in Clinics, and Digital Dentistry Practices that own in-office milling machines (like CEREC, PlanMill, DWX) and need to design single-tooth restorations (crowns, veneers, inlays, onlays, bridges) directly and quickly in their operatory.

✨ Key Features & Capabilities

• Guided, Step-by-Step Workflow: Intuitive wizard-like interface that guides the user through the design process for specific restoration types (crown, veneer, inlay/onlay, bridge) with minimal clicks.

• Biogeneric Tooth Library & Morphology: Features exocad’s acclaimed “biogeneric” technology, which suggests an anatomically correct tooth shape based on the surrounding teeth and antagonist scan, requiring minimal manual adjustment.

• Single-Appointment Chairside Workflow: Seamlessly integrates with intraoral scanners and in-office milling machines, enabling scan, design, and milling all within one patient visit.

• Margin Line Detection & Editing: Advanced tools for automatic and manual margin line marking on the preparation, with a magnified view for precision.

• Virtual Articulation & Occlusion Check: Allows dynamic checking of the designed restoration against the opposing teeth to ensure proper bite.

• Optimized for Major Chairside Systems: Certified and pre-configured for integration with popular chairside ecosystems (Dentsply Sirona CEREC, Planmeca PlanCAD, Roland DWX, etc.).

🆕 What’s New in Version 3.1 Rijeka

The “Rijeka” release introduces significant updates focused on AI, speed, and expanded clinical applications.

• Enhanced AI-Assisted Design (exoplan AI): Integration of artificial intelligence for even more accurate automatic margin line detection, tooth shape suggestion, and occlusion adjustment, further reducing manual work.

• New “Smile Design” Module: Introduction of basic smile design tools within the chairside environment, allowing for anterior aesthetic planning and patient communication.

• Improved Performance & Speed: Optimized algorithms for faster processing of scan data and smoother real-time manipulation of 3D models.

• Expanded Indications: Support for designing more complex cases, such as implant-supported single crowns (with scan bodies) and 3-unit bridges directly in the chairside workflow.

• Updated User Interface: Refreshed and simplified UI for even more intuitive navigation during time-sensitive clinical procedures.

💻 System Requirements

• OS: Windows 10 or 11 (64-bit, Professional recommended).

• CPU: Multi-core Intel i5/i7 or equivalent (higher performance for faster processing).

• RAM: 16 GB minimum (32 GB recommended).
