Dentframe

A marketplace for dental designers, clinics and labs

Dentframe is a global marketplace that matches dental designers with clinics and labs. Clinics upload cases from any intraoral scanner, and verified designers working in 3Shape, exocad and Blender deliver designs ready to print or mill. Founded in 2019, Dentframe has designed 25,000 units, and designers are verified through ratings.

Designers receive new cases and choose their projects. Clinics and labs get access to verified designers, with priority when demand is high through Dentframe Prime.

How matching works

A clinic or lab creates a case in the Dentframe app, chooses the case type and teeth and uploads the scans. The case is offered to designers on the marketplace, who choose the projects they want. Clients can also send a case to a specific designer or to one of their favourite designers. With Dentframe Prime, clinics can choose and save favourite designers.

Payment protection

Payments on the Dentframe marketplace are protected, for clinics and labs that order designs as well as for the designers who deliver them.

For dental designers

Designers receive new cases, choose their projects and set their own hours. They get marketing tools and reach dentists and labs on the platform, and they work in the software they know: 3Shape, exocad or Blender.

For clinics and labs

Clinics and labs get access to verified designers and can smooth out production peaks by uploading cases when there is too much to do. Every intraoral scanner works, and all common file formats are supported: STL, OBJ, PLY, DCM, 3OX and 3OXZ.

How it works

Clinics and labs create a case, choose the case type and teeth, add instructions and upload the scan files, up to 250 MB per file.

Who it’s for

Clinics and labs upload cases and get instant access to verified designers, and can smooth out production peaks by uploading cases when there is too much to do.

Designers are verified through ratings from the clinics and labs whose cases they design, and designers who don't meet the standard are removed from the platform.

Dental designers receive new cases, choose their projects and set their own hours.

Turnaround and price

Designs by human designers are delivered from 60 minutes. The exact turnaround for your case is shown in the app before you commit. AI designs for models, splints and trays are delivered in under 20 minutes.

You see the price in the app when you create a case, before you send it for design. Dentframe Prime is optional platform access (storage, designer choice, priority), separate from the case fee.
