About us
Our company, Dent-Art-Technik Ltd. is busy in the manufacture and trade of state-of-art medical aids for more than 30 years. In our instance the term “medial aid” predominantly means the manufacture of various dental products and dentures. The firm was established in April 1992, by János Kónya, senior dental orthodontic technician with the goal to set up a dental laboratory which can render for its partners at very high standards the full range of services such facilities usually offer.
We make our products from high quality, raw materials with up to date and cooperatable technologies wich are based on each other. We are capable of doing all of the worksteps. Our machines of European standard and our gaguges enable the application of modern technologies for every kind of products. Our products range from of the denture, tooth regulation, press ceramic, fixed prosthetics, implants, and all of the products of dental technican, serving the customers of the neighbouring countries.
„We belive that employing suitable, highly-qualified and dedicated technicians is the key of our success and also using up to date raw materials and continously improving technologies at the same time.”
Certificates and awards
In 1998 the MSZ EN ISO 9001: 1996 system standard was leaded in by our company. The Dent-Art-Technik was first who use this system one of the all Hungraian Dental Laboratory. This system coordinated the operation of the company. After several successful renewal audits, we have revised our quality system according to the new MSZ EN ISO 9001: 2015 system standard.
One of the main goals of our company is to meet the ever increasing quality requirements, therefore besides the above-mentioned quality system, several of our products and production processes are CE certified. Such products or processes for example our titanium mesh, our bone block, our 3D printing from titanium and cobalt chrome etc.
We are proud of it and we are pleased that our work is recognized by the profession. In recent years, our company has won the Hungarian Quality Product Award with seven products. Due to the continuous development and innovative activity of the company and the new dental technology solutions, in addition to the seventh Hungarian Quality Product Award, we also won the Hungarian Quality Product Award - Merit Award For The Economy in recognition of our professional work. In 2016, at the Dental World International Dental Exhibition and Conference, one of the largest dental events in Central Europe, we received the Hungarian Dental Awrads - Lab of the Year Award. In addition to these, we are proud owners of many other professional recognitions. Among them are the multiple Imre Földvári Prize and the Professional Award of the Innovation Exhibition and Invention Fair in Győr. Futhermore we also won the Value and Quality Award twice.
Our technologies
We are proud of our Cad Cam system, which we have used for several years. We were among the first laboratories to have this system in Hungary. Gypsum pattern, prepared on the basis of the impression, is scanned and after the information has been processed by a computer, the frame is fabricated by computer controlled diamond milling heads from blocks prefabricated in a closed millling area (see “Materials”), which, after filtration, are veneered with ceramic to produce the final form.
We were among the first in Hungary to have Cad Cam technology, and are proud of many years of experience obtained therewith. Nowadays there are lots of laboratories, offering Cad Cam technology, but if we have an in-depth investigation of the topic, we can see that lots of systems are called in this way on the market, but not all of them are proven. Only that technology can be called Cad Cam, where design and manufacturing are completed with the aid a computer. Pre-moulded and scanned techniques are called „key cutting” by the professional slang. We have used real Cad Cam from the very first moment, which, owing to the ongoing development of computer technique and our system programs becomes more and more user-friendly and up-to-date.
Galvanization – ion migration serving dentistry
For further details about the procedure, please read “Materials “. What provides the opportunity of galvanisation for our laboratory? In addition to replacements fabricated with this technology, it is possible to create silver-galvanic surface on the pattern of technical fillings, inlays and onlays. Its importance lies in that it is harder than the highest quality dental gypsum, more resistant to fracture, and the surface is better resistant to wear, and more precise fit can be achieved with works prepared on the basis of such patterns. It is also possible to cover metal part of metal plate type prostheses with galvanic gold coating. There may be esthetic reasons thereof, when a thin gold layer is applied on the metal plate, accordingly it involves less costs. In the course of time it might be necessary to restore this layer, and it can be easily and quickly replaced.
There may be esthetic reasons thereof, when a thin gold layer is applied on the metal plate, accordingly it involves less costs. In the course of time it might be necessary to restore this layer, and it can be easily and quickly replaced.
There may be medico-biological reason for applying gold-galvanic layer, too. Some patients have allergy to nickel-free metals. Allergy caused by gold occures extremely rarely, as against to nickel-free medical metals, its strength is lower than that of the other medical metals, the price thereof, however, is higher. With the help of thick gold-galvanic surface, metal can be moulded from precious metal-free medical metals (its strength is higher), the weight thereof can be reduced (it is especially important in case of replacements in the upper jaw), and the price thereof is lower than those including cast gold plate
Galvano-plasty – different way by DC
Details of the procedure are to be seen in menu “Materials utilised “.
We have a Solaris galvanic machine in our laboratory, huge benefit whereof is that at a time 16 galvanic patterns can be attached, even in case the aim is to achieve different layer thickness, as each of them can be individually controlled by a computer. Therefore in case there are a few works prepared at the same time,
Laser welding – We believe in laser ray
Laser soldering is a rapid and safe procedure, which can be utilised in dental technique in versatile manner. From the point of view of patients it is very important that it expedites our work, thereby reducing the period of time while replacements are prepared.
Our partners engaged in jewellery industry or optics, often utilise the possibility of laser welding.
Laser welding – With the velocity of light on the way of welding
Laser welding equipment is not cheap, but it is very versatile. This is why we invested in a laser welding equipment, which facilitate our work, certain replacements can be prepared more rapidly. Although it cannot replace the conventional soldering methods in each case, it has a lower error limit than this latter one, it is accurate, safe, and allows for many repairs, which cannot be performed with any other method, and in this way we can avoid to prepare again a replacement.
Soldered surface can be polished with the laser welding device, and there is no need for any special after-work.
Deep drawing – Simple technique, versatile utilisation
Deep drawing is a procedure, based on a simple idea, yet it can be utilised in many areas of dental technique. Warmed up, soft foil is pressed on the mould with condensed air, which after cooling down, will have absolutely accurate dimensions and will be shape stable.
Foils of manufacturers have various range of colours and strength, subject to the field of application.
Deep drawing – Undeservedly forgotten system
Many labs disregard this simple method – maybe looking as if that of the „stone age” -, yet its advantage is exactly its simplicity.
Owing to clever development it can be utilised in various fields of dental technique, e.g. prosthetics, metal technology, implantology, orthodontics. There is slight possibility of errors, with experience, which can be attained within a short period of time, favourable outcome is always guaranteed. Our manufacturer partner Erkodent ensures superior quality. More details can be found in menu „ Materials”. In many practices the possibility of deep drawing is not dealt with, yet it is worth using it.
Metal casting without metal from ceramics
This technology, primarily having esthetic values, is an extremely interesting and remarkable procedure, in the course whereof the core of the final replacement is moulded from wax, then, similarly to metal casting, it is embedded, baked and the honey-like liquid, live glass ceramic mass, especially developed for this purpose, is pressed into the negative mould with the help of a special oven. After taking out and cleaning the produced transparent ceramic core is then veneered with its own veneering material, thereby allowing for producing layers of various shades and transparency, featuring natural teeth.
Press ceramic – Chapters about beauty
From among metal-free technologies, it has the most natural affect, and it is preferred by our dentists most frequently for especially esthetic restaurations. In Hungary we were one of the first laboratories to deal with pressed ceramic inlays, onlays, veneers, gathering lots of experience, from moulding upto final workmanship. The head of our company has delivered many lectures, practical exhibitions and courses about this topic. We have compiled considerable volume of documents with photos, about various cases. It is to be mentioned hereby how important we find to implement good communication between a practice and the laboratory. In cases where esthetics is of outstanding importance, patients are often invited to our laboratory, or the technicians visit the practices at a preliminarily fixed date.
Nowadays, the development of 3D technology is increasingly demanding more perfect and exact products. The manufacturing process developed by Dent-Art-Technik is based on the print & mill process which based on 21st century technology. During production, they are virtually designed, printed in an additive way, geometric checked and identified, and precision post-processing. In contrast to the casting process used so far, the metal printing technology of the finished product has a more homogeneous material structure, more productive production and a more predictable end result. Thanks to the technology used, the consumption of raw materials per unit of product is minimized and the consumption of auxiliary materials is significantly reduced.
We use digital models to create 3D printing objects, and we use these digital models in the STL extension. The devices in the lab uses LMF (Laser Metal Fusion) technology. LMF technology is used to produce complex metal parts from metal powder. Complex internal structures can also be created using the LMF process. The laser melts the metal powder from layer to layer to form the desired contour. Products made with LMF technology are pre-product only, they require precision post-processing either manual or mechanical.
The specialty of the Dent-Art-Technik Ltd. metal printer is that in addition to its widespread CoCr printing, it is capable of printing titanium, which is used almost daily by the laboratory, and is also suitable for gold, silver, steel, bronze and aluminum.
In addition to printing metals, 3D printing of plastics, also known as polymers, can be found in our lab. This allows you to print a variety of medical aids. For example drill template, custom spoon, bite correction devices, plastic models for orthodontic rails, study and section models, and so-called "moke up" trial models.
