Milling or printing dentures? The answer is not always one or the other.

In a hybrid digital denture workflow, both methods can play a role.

Printing is often used where speed, flexibility and cost-efficiency matter, particularly for try-ins and provisional dentures.

Milling is preferred when durability and strength are the priority, making it a strong choice for definitive dentures.

The real value is knowing when to use each process.

That’s where a hybrid workflow can help dentists move more efficiently from planning to final prosthesis.

Do you find much difference between milling and printing dentures?

Yes, but it is not always about choosing one over the other.

Printing is useful for try-ins, provisional dentures and workflow stages where speed, flexibility and cost-efficiency are important.

Milling is preferred for durability and final prostheses, making it a strong option for definitive dentures.

That’s why many labs use a hybrid workflow, using printing and milling where each performs best.

For dentists, this can support a more efficient digital denture process from early workflow stages through to the final prosthesis.

A little life update from SCD HQ 🥐✨

From Mother’s Day morning tea with Lune croissants, to our monthly team catch-up over momos and pool, to packing cases behind the scenes and sharing knowledge through our digital dentures webinar, it’s been a busy few weeks at SCD.

Because great service starts with great people, and we’re lucky to have a team that brings care, energy and a whole lot of personality to everything we do.

Here’s a peek at the people, packing, learning and little moments behind the scenes at Southern Cross Dental.

A little behind-the-scenes life update from Southern Cross Dental.

We’ve had a lovely few weeks at SCD, from a Mother’s Day morning tea with Lune croissants, to our monthly team catch-up with momos and a game of pool, our digital dentures webinar, and plenty happening behind the scenes with logistics, packing and cases moving through the lab.

It’s these moments, both big and small, that remind us what makes SCD special: our people.

Our team is at the heart of how we support dental practices every day, from customer service and technical support to logistics, case handling and clinical education. A little snapshot of the people, processes and learning behind the scenes.

The demand for dentures is growing across Australia and New Zealand, driven by an ageing population and increasing patient need.

For many practices, this presents both an opportunity and a challenge.

Traditional denture workflows can be time-intensive, requiring multiple appointments and manual processes that impact efficiency and chair time.

Digital dentures offer a more streamlined approach. By integrating digital workflows, practices can reduce appointments, improve fit and predictability, and deliver a more efficient patient experience.

As patient demand continues to rise, now is the time to consider how your workflow can evolve to meet it.

If you are looking to simplify your denture process while maintaining consistent, high-quality outcomes, digital may be the next step.
