Photogrammetry

Advancing Full Arch Implant Accuracy in Ottawa With Watersedge Dental Lab

  • This field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged.

Photogrammetry is rapidly becoming the gold standard for capturing the three-dimensional spatial position of multiple implants in full arch rehabilitation.

Using high-resolution triangulation imaging, photogrammetry records implant coordinates with micron-level precision independent of soft tissue distortion, scanner drift, stitching errors, or operator variability.

This level of accuracy reduces the need for verification jigs, analog impression steps, and multiple prosthetic try-ins. By minimizing these steps, common sources of additional appointments, increased chair time, and late-stage corrections are significantly reduced. 

Photogrammetry

Integration with Watersedge CAD/CAM

When integrated with the CAD CAM ecosystem at Watersedge, photogrammetry enables:

  • Ultra precise digital implant master models

  • Fewer prosthetic adjustments at delivery

  • Predictable immediate load and definitive restorations

  • A more streamlined full arch workflow with fewer variables

What This Means for Your Practice

The efficiencies created by photogrammetry improve how smoothly and predictably full arch cases move through your practice.

  • With fewer verification and corrective appointments required, chair time per case is significantly reduced.

  • This allows you to complete cases more efficiently without adding time or extra expense to your day.

  • Improved predictability also reduces remakes, last-minute schedule disruptions, and late-stage complications, helping maintain a more controlled and repeatable workflow.

A New Local Standard

Photogrammetry establishes a new standard for accuracy and predictability in full arch implant dentistry. Watersedge Dental Lab is proud to be the first lab in Ottawa to integrate photogrammetry into a fully coordinated CAD CAM and full arch production workflow, delivering reliable outcomes for clinicians and patients alike.

Higher Patient Satisfaction

Patients experience direct benefits from photogrammetry-driven workflows:

  • Shorter overall treatment timelines

  • Faster delivery of well-fitting provisional and definitive restorations

  • Reduced risk of discomfort, misfit issues, or mid-treatment complications

  • Greater confidence in the stability and longevity of their prosthesis

A smoother and more predictable process improves the patient experience and supports stronger case acceptance and referrals.

Benefits You Will See Day to Day

These efficiencies help make complex full arch cases feel more consistent and manageable.

  • Fewer appointments per full arch case
  • Less chairside adjustment at delivery
  • More predictable scheduling
  • Reduced back and forth late in treatment
  • Better use of clinical and staff time
