Which software is better, Facilitate Pro from Astra Tech, EXCELLDENT from Dentsply or SimPlant from Materialise?
A. The THREE of them… Yes, Facilitate Pro and also Excelldent are SimPlant-based products sold in an OEM partnership with Astra Tech and with Dentsply (in separate ways). In the same way you will find more and more SimPlant components as OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) in software and hardware, related to the dental industry. This trend is similar to what happened to the PC industry, in which almost all PC manufacturers offer their hardware with Microsoft Windows to assure the best performance to their products.
