AI Dental Workforce: Could It Give Your Team More Time to Do Their Jobs?

10/11/2026

A dental practice or laboratory can have excellent people and still struggle to keep up with the working day.

The receptionist is answering the phone while helping someone at the desk. A technician stops working to answer a case query. Someone needs a callback, a collection needs checking, and an overdue account needs another reminder. Meanwhile, the owner is trying to work out what happened yesterday and what needs attention today.

At Bremadent, these pressures have shaped our interest in an AI dental workforce: digital support that could help with routine communication, administration and follow-through alongside our existing team.
Our starting point has been the everyday friction we experience running a busy dental laboratory. How much skilled time goes into finding information, passing messages around and making sure something actually gets done?

Understanding How to Use A Denar Facebow

6/22/2026

0 Comments

If you've ever attended a restorative dentistry course, prosthodontic programme, implant training event, or denture course, you've almost certainly come across a facebow. More specifically, if you've worked with Bremadent Dental Laboratory, there's a good chance we've asked you to provide a Denar facebow record for a case.

What often surprises us is not how many clinicians haven't used a facebow recently, but how many have been shown how to use one without ever fully understanding why they're using it.

We regularly receive cases where the bite fork is upside down, components have been assembled incorrectly, records have become distorted, or the facebow has been used simply because it was listed on a prescription form. Once we explain its purpose, the lightbulb usually comes on and everything suddenly makes sense.

This article is designed to be the definitive guide for dentists, therapists, implant clinicians, prosthodontists, dental students, and dental teams who want to understand what a Denar facebow is, how to use it correctly, and why it remains one of the most valuable tools available for achieving predictable restorative outcomes.

Shade Guides for £30 (Compatible with the VITA Classical shade system)

5/4/2026

If you’ve ever walked into a surgery and asked for a shade, you’ll know the situation. The nurse opens a drawer, pulls out a shade guide, and it’s either incomplete, disorganised, or nowhere to be found. In some cases, there isn’t one at all. It’s more common than people think, especially in busy dental practices where time is tight and systems aren’t always followed consistently.

At Bremadent Dental Laboratory, we see this every day. Shade communication is one of the most critical parts of achieving predictable restorative outcomes, yet it’s often one of the weakest links in the chain. That gap is exactly what led us to explore a simple, practical solution for dental teams.

Zirconia Is Out Of This World!

If you’ve been practicing dentistry for more than a decade, you’ll remember a time when zirconia was spoken about in slightly hushed tones. Strong, yes. Reliable, mostly. Beautiful? Debatable. Fast forward to today and zirconia is no longer the mysterious new kid in the lab. It’s the backbone of modern restorative dentistry and one of the most requested materials we fabricate at Bremadent Dental Laboratory.

This article is a practical, no-nonsense deep dive into zirconia. Where it comes from, how it evolved in dentistry, what the science actually says, how it’s used today, and the real-world differences between layered and full contour monolithic zirconia. No hype. No fluff. Just solid, usable knowledge for dentists and dental teams.

What are Diagnostic Wax Ups used for?

Diagnostic wax-ups are one of those tools in dentistry that quietly do a huge amount of heavy lifting. They sit at the crossroads of clinical planning, patient communication, and predictable outcomes. When used properly, they reduce risk, improve case acceptance, and create smoother workflows for both the dental practice and the laboratory. At Bremadent Dental Laboratory, we see diagnostic wax-ups not as an optional extra, but as a fundamental part of planning everything from single unit smile enhancements to full arch reconstructions.

In this article, we will break down exactly what diagnostic wax-ups are, why they matter, and how they support better results in smile makeovers and full arch cases. We will keep it practical, jargon-free, and rooted in real-world dentistry, with a few light-hearted truths along the way.
