THE SERVICE

Built to your prescription.

Austin practices ordering E.max lithium disilicate crowns from Dani Dental submit via intraoral scan (STL or .niri) or traditional PVS impression. Either path enters the same ceramic production workflow. No outsourced milling. No offshore finishing. Every crown is pressed or CAD/CAM milled in-house, then hand-characterized by the technician assigned to your account.

THE DETAIL

How we build it.

Most national-network labs routing Austin cases process them through a regional hub where no single technician owns the case end to end. You get a customer-service rep as your contact, not the person who actually built the crown. Dani Dental runs the opposite model: every Austin account is assigned a named bench technician with a direct phone line and a stated four-hour response window during business hours. If a shade match looks wrong at try-in, that technician takes the call. High-volume production labs optimized for throughput often treat E.max as a commodity press-and-ship item. The ceramic properties of lithium disilicate , translucency, flexural strength around 400 MPa, and the nuance of the crystallization cycle , reward hand-finishing attention that throughput models deprioritize. Dani's production volume stays intentionally controlled so technician-to-case ratios stay low. Fewer cases per technician per day means more characterization time per unit. Price transparency is another gap in this market. Austin dentists report getting invoices that do not match verbal quotes, or discovering per-case fees buried in lab slips. Dani publishes a flat per-unit E.max rate with no add-on shade fees, no digital-submission surcharge, and no account-minimum requirement for practices still building their restorative volume.

GETTING CASES TO US

Logistics, to the bench.

Austin practices ordering E.max lithium disilicate crowns from Dani Dental submit via intraoral scan (STL or .niri) or traditional PVS impression. Either path enters the same ceramic production workflow. No outsourced milling. No offshore finishing. Every crown is pressed or CAD/CAM milled in-house, then hand-characterized by the technician assigned to your account. For Austin dentists working in the Domain, South Congress corridor, or the 78701 and 78704 zip clusters, turnaround lands at five business days on the standard queue. Rush cases (72-hour window) are available by prior arrangement , contact your technician directly, not a call-center queue. Austin's growth market means new restorative practices are opening fast; Dani onboards new doctor accounts in under 48 hours, with your first case kit shipped same day you sign up. E.max lithium disilicate works across anterior and posterior indications: single-unit crowns, veneers, onlays, and three-unit bridges to the second premolar. Shade selection uses the Vita Classical and Vita 3D-Master systems. If your patient's case falls into the monolithic-versus-layered decision zone, your assigned technician will flag it before production starts, not after the crown is done.

COMMON QUESTIONS

What practices ask

Does Dani Dental accept intraoral scans from Austin practices, or do I need to ship a physical impression?
Both paths are supported. Dani accepts STL files and native scan files from major intraoral scanner systems. Physical PVS or polyether impressions ship to the Arizona lab and enter the same production queue. Austin practices on a digital workflow typically see faster turnaround because scan receipt is immediate. If you are transitioning from impression-based to digital, your assigned technician can walk through the file-submission steps on a call.
What is the turnaround time for a standard E.max single-unit crown?
Five business days from the moment a complete case arrives, whether that is a scan file or a physical impression. Rush 72-hour production is available by arrangement. The clock starts on confirmed receipt, not on ship date, so Austin practices using overnight courier on Monday morning typically receive crowns by Friday. Your technician confirms receipt within two hours of the case arriving in the queue.
Can Dani Dental handle both pressed and milled E.max, or only one method?
Both. Pressed E.max (IPS e.max Press ingots) and CAD/CAM milled E.max (IPS e.max CAD blocks) are produced in-house. The selection depends on case geometry and your clinical preference. Posterior monolithic cases often go milled for speed; anterior cases with layering requirements may go pressed. Your technician reviews the prescription before committing to a method and flags any discrepancy before production begins.
What shade systems does Dani Dental use for E.max crowns?
Vita Classical and Vita 3D-Master are the standard systems. If your practice uses a different shade guide, note it on the prescription and your technician will confirm compatibility before production. For complex anterior cases, a custom shade tab or clinical photograph submitted with the case significantly tightens the characterization match and reduces the probability of a chair-side adjustment at seating.
How does Dani Dental handle remakes if a crown does not seat correctly?
Remakes attributed to lab error are reproduced at no charge with priority turnaround. The assigned technician reviews the original case file, the seating notes you provide, and the returned crown before restarting production. Dani's current remake rate across all E.max cases sits below 2.5 percent over the trailing 18-month window. If a case is borderline, the technician calls you before the remake starts, not after.
Is there a minimum monthly case volume required for an Austin practice to open a Dani Dental account?
No minimum. Practices submitting one case per month are onboarded on the same terms as high-volume restorative offices. New Austin accounts receive their first case kit, including prescription pads and shade tabs, shipped same day the account is confirmed. There is no annual fee, no per-case digital submission charge, and no tiered pricing tied to volume thresholds.
