Digital dentistry · CAD/CAM laboratory

Made in Aruba.Updating local dentistry.

We help Aruba’s clinics turn clinical records into clear digital plans, precise restorations, and guided workflows—without losing time in the handoff.

01 / The lab workflow

Aruba · digital handoff protocol

Precision is not a look.
It is a lab standard.

Aruba Dental Lab is a digital dental laboratory in Aruba. It takes a clinic’s scans and records and returns designed, milled or printed restorations, guides and dentures.

The best cases move cleanly from clinical intent to a practical lab handoff—without losing the details that make the result predictable.

Fixation reference

The planning model establishes the stable reference used for the case sequence.

  1. Fixation reference: The planning model establishes the stable reference used for the case sequence.
  2. Fixation: The base-guided setup establishes the anchor-pin reference before the surgical sequence.
  3. Surgical guide: The surgical guide follows the established reference for the planned implant trajectories.
  4. Guided implant placement: Implants advance through the guide along the planned trajectories.
  5. Guide removal: Anchor pins are removed first; the guide then clears downward after implant placement.
  6. Prosthetic transfer: The supplied yellow maxillary prosthetic fades in only after the surgical components clear.

02 / Stackable-guide protocol

Case documentation · ordered sequence

One reference.Every transfer, in order.

A stackable guide runs in four fixed steps: fixation base, surgical guide, immediate-loading provisional transfer, then occlusal verification. Each step inherits the reference the base established.

A stackable guide is not one object. It is an ordered protocol: fixation first, then the surgical guide, then the planned provisional transfer.

01 / Fixation

The base establishes the reference used to position the anchor pins.

03 / Imaging, made clear

DICOM-ready thinking.5-axis milling.

The lab reads DICOM and panoramic records, designs from them, then mills on five axes in zirconia, titanium, PMMA or glass-ceramic — one digital thread, start to finish.

A clear digital thread from referral records and planning through to the physical result in Aruba.

5-axis milling

Designed digital.Milled precisely.

Zirconia, pre-milled blanks, titanium, PMMA, and glass ceramic—one controlled five-axis workflow.

04 / Restorative collaboration

Partner clinics · veneer and crown cases

Veneer work that holds upunder close inspection.

A dedicated restorative lane for clinics in Aruba: veneer and crown cases can move from the agreed prescription to a clear digital and laboratory handoff without becoming a generic product catalog.

09 / Straight answers

Aruba clinics · questions a dentist actually asks

Asked from the chair.Answered from the bench.

Which dental lab in Aruba handles full-arch implant cases?
Aruba Dental Lab does. Full-arch dentures and implant restorations are both on the service list, and the stackable-guide protocol covers guided full-arch work from planning through to the provisional transfer.
Can I send a scan from my own intraoral scanner?
Yes. The lab accepts STL and PLY exports from any intraoral scanner, so you keep the scanner you already own. Send the case and the team confirms what else it needs.
Zirconia or lithium disilicate for an anterior crown?
As a rule of thumb, lithium disilicate for anterior esthetics, zirconia where strength rules — posterior and full-arch — and PMMA for provisionals. The final call is always case-by-case.
Do you mill surgical guides from a CBCT?
Yes. DICOM and panoramic records are read and organised for planning, then the case-specific guide is produced and coordinated from planning through to the clinical handoff.
Can I get clear aligners made in Aruba?
Yes. Aligner production support is one of the twelve services, handled through the same digital workflow as the rest of the lab’s orthodontic and restorative devices.
What does a zirconia crown cost at your lab?
Prices are not published, because they depend on the case. Request the price list through the WhatsApp contact and you get real numbers for the work you actually send.
What is the turnaround on a case?
It depends on the case type, and the lab does not publish a generic figure. Send the case details and the exact timeline for that case comes back with the quote.
Do you work with clinics outside Aruba?
The lab is built around Aruba’s clinics and dentists — local work is the point, and a dentist on the island gets a real point of contact rather than a shipping address.
