We machine production parts for Dental and Orthodontic customers, from single prototypes through to repeat batches of tens of thousands. Typical work covers implant analogues, abutment blanks and model bases, usually in Titanium Grade 5 or 316L.
What makes Dental and Orthodontic different from general machining is not the geometry — it is the documentation and the failure modes. The parts that come back are the ones where small features at high volume — part handling dominates cost was not designed out at the start.
Parts we machine for Dental and Orthodontic
- Implant analogues
- Abutment blanks
- Model bases
- Scan bodies
- Instrument handles
Materials we run for Dental and Orthodontic
- Titanium Grade 5
- 316L
- Cobalt chrome
- PEEK
- Zirconia (grinding)
Standards and documentation
- ISO 13485, ISO 14801 for implants, CE/FDA where applicable
Tell us which standard applies and which documents you need with the shipment. Dimensional reports, material certificates, certificates of conformity and first article inspection reports are all available, and it is much cheaper to agree them before the batch runs than to reconstruct them afterwards.
Where Dental and Orthodontic projects usually go wrong
- Small features at high volume — part handling dominates cost
- Biocompatibility documentation is mandatory

Frequently asked questions
Do you have experience with Dental and Orthodontic parts?
Yes. Typical parts we run are implant analogues and abutment blanks. We can share the process route and inspection approach for a comparable part before you commit.
Which materials do you recommend for Dental and Orthodontic?
Titanium Grade 5, 316L, Cobalt chrome, PEEK. The right choice depends on which of corrosion, weight, strength and cost is the binding constraint, and we will say so plainly rather than quoting the most expensive option.
What documentation do you provide?
A dimensional report and a certificate of conformity as standard. Material certificates, CMM reports, FAIR and PPAP submissions are available when your quality system requires them.
What tolerances do you hold for Dental and Orthodontic parts?
+/-0.01 mm on implant interfaces; Ra 0.4 um on mucosal contact surfaces is typical for the industry. Tighter tolerance on individual features is possible and is quoted against the specific feature rather than the whole part.
