What critics are saying

  • Dandy’s premium pricing faces direct pressure from national labs and commodity zirconia.

  • If practices distrust Dandy’s proprietary quality claims, the platform becomes a margin-squeezed lab.

With Fusion(TM) denture family, dandy sets a new standard of care.

With Fusion(TM) denture family, dandy sets a new standard of care. First-of-its-kind manufacturing process delivers the handcrafted aesthetics of traditional dentures with the precision of digital design. NEW YORK - September 29, 2026 - Dandy, the fully digital dental lab, today launched the Fusion(TM) denture line, a revolutionary new product that combines digital precision with hand-finished craftsmanship, creating a new baseline for excellence - one only Dandy can deliver. Until now, with dentures, clinicians had to choose between precision, quality, and accessible pricing. With Dandy Fusion(TM) Dentures, they get all three. The secret is a proprietary new manufacturing method that combines a digitally engineered base with a hand-crafted acrylic finish. Each restoration begins with a digital impression captured chairside with the Dandy Vision intraoral scanner. Dandy technicians work with the dentist to finalize and approve the design in Dandy's online visual workspace. Dandy then manufactures the base at one of its advanced production facilities, using robotics and AI to ensure accuracy and consistency. Finally, Dandy adds hand-poured acrylic to create a single, seamless restoration engineered for strength, fit, and retention while capturing the depth, warmth, and translucency of natural tissue with a degree of fidelity automation alone can't achieve. The result is a premium denture like none other, featuring an ultra-precise fit and true-to-life gingiva with coloring that is tailored to each patient. Unlike 3D-only dentures, which break easily and are impossible to service, Dandy Fusion(TM) dentures are built for relines and repairs. The use of traditional acrylic ensures extraordinary longevity, while the digital scan with Dandy Vision creates a permanent digital record, making reorders effortless. "We've evolved beyond 3D," said Dandy head of engineering Cong Yu. "Dandy Fusion(TM) offers durability and realism that other methods can't match. It completely changes what clinicians and patients can expect from a denture." The Dandy Fusion(TM) family offers different types of dentures customized to the patient's needs: * Full Denture: Customized and made-from-scratch removable prosthetics * Flexible Partial: Flexible, gum-colored made from trusted Valplast(R) and Duraflex(R) material without any visible clasps - the ultimate comfort option * Overdentures: Fit over retained tooth roots of implants, helping preserve bone and delivering better stability than traditional dentures; can be removable or implant-retained * Metal Mesh: Additional strength enhancement to full dentures (available Q4 2026) Dandy's all-digital workflow and automation produce customized, fitted dentures with just two appointments and a five-day turnaround (six days for partials), meaning less chairtime for patients and more appointment slots for clinicians. "The strength and the aesthetics of Dandy Fusion(TM) come through in a way 3D-printed never did. I'm not burning time on minor adjustments anymore because the fit comes in so precise," said Dr. Chrislyn Fite, Brighten Dental. "I'm so comfortable with Dandy Fusion(TM) now that I'm making substantially more dentures, and other dentists send me their frustrated denture patients because I'll take them on." The launch of Dandy Fusion(TM) comes on the heels of Dandy's Polychromatic Shade(TM), a robotic technique that stains and glazes teeth with micron-level accuracy, producing lifelike zirconia crowns at a quarter of the cost of hand-painted porcelain. Like Polychromatic Shade, Fusion(TM) uses technology exclusive to Dandy to make top-quality dental products affordable and accessible. "Our mission is to make the premium standard of dental care the default standard," said Dandy cofounder Daniel Hanover. "Dandy Fusion(TM) is the first denture to deliver affordability without compromise. For the vast majority of cases, there's no reason to choose 3D anymore. Fusion(TM) is the clinically superior way to give patients dignity, confidence, and trust in the fit." Availability Dandy Fusion(TM) dentures are available now through Dandy's Chairside platform, with pricing starting at $259. The Dandy Vision scanner with Chairside is available for free with a monthly lab minimum. For more information, visit the Dandy Fusion Denture website here.

Dandy launches Polychromatic Shade™ crowns with porcelain aesthetics at $99 after $100M investment

Dandy, a fully digital dental lab, has launched Polychromatic Shade™, a patented technology that combines porcelain-level aesthetics with the durability and affordability of monolithic zirconia. The innovation addresses a longstanding trade-off in restorative dentistry, where high-quality aesthetic crowns typically cost 2-3 times more than standard zirconia alternatives. The technology uses robotic stain and glaze processes with micron-level accuracy to create realistic finishes on high-strength zirconia substrates. Dandy's crowns are priced at $99, compared to $200-$400 for boutique lab equivalents. The product resulted from over $100 million in investment and utilises expertise from semiconductor-grade robotics, ceramic science, and machine learning across a supply chain spanning seven countries. Polychromatic Shade™ crowns are currently available for ordering, with delivery in five days and a lifetime warranty.

Dandy launches Dandy Cart all-in-one workstation with $40K value at no additional cost

Dandy, a digital dental lab, has launched Dandy Cart, a chairside workstation with touchscreen that integrates with its Dandy Vision scanner. The system, valued at $40,000, is provided at no additional cost to practices meeting monthly lab minimums. The all-in-one workstation features a 21.5-inch adjustable display for presenting scans and smile simulations to patients, aimed at improving case acceptance. It includes AI-powered scan reviews and live reviews with Dandy technicians, which the company says saves more than three appointments monthly by reducing remakes. The mobile cart's design enables quick movement between operatories whilst a powerful processor renders 3D models rapidly. Dandy claims the system helps practices maintain schedules whilst building patient trust through visual treatment presentations and minimising errors requiring rescans.
