When you visit Lassus Tandartsen, you are not just stepping into an average dental practice — you are experiencing some of the most advanced dental technology available in the Netherlands. From same-day ceramic crowns to invisible orthodontic aligners, digital dentistry at Lassus is designed around one goal: giving you the best possible outcome with the least possible disruption to your day.
Learn about digital dentistry and how it is used at Lassus Tandartsen, and most importantly, why it matters for you as a client.
1. CEREC Technology: Your New Crown in a Single Visit
Perhaps the most remarkable technology at Lassus Tandartsen is CEREC (Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics). This system allows the team to design, mill and fit a custom porcelain crown — all in a single appointment of roughly 1.5 to 2 hours.
How it works:
- The dentist prepares the damaged tooth and takes a precise 3D digital scan of your mouth — no messy impression trays required.
- The scan is used to design your custom crown on-screen in real time. You can see exactly how your new tooth will look before it is made.
- A ceramic block in a colour matched to your natural teeth is placed into the in-practice milling machine, which carves your crown in approximately 15 minutes.
- The finished crown is placed and adjusted for a perfect fit — all in the same sitting.
What this means for you: No second appointment. No temporary crown. No waiting weeks for a dental lab. You leave the practice with a permanent, natural-looking restoration, the same day.
2. 3D Digital Scanning: Goodbye to Uncomfortable Impressions
Lassus Tandartsen uses intraoral 3D scanners as a standard part of many treatments. A small handheld wand is guided over your teeth to create a highly detailed three-dimensional digital model of your entire mouth — without you having to bite down on impression material.
What this means for you: Greater comfort during your appointment. More accurate results. And because the digital model is stored, there is a precise reference point for every future treatment.
3. CAD/CAM Restorations: Precision-Engineered Inlays and Onlays
Beyond crowns, Lassus Tandartsen uses CAD/CAM (Computer-Aided Design / Computer-Aided Manufacturing) technology to fabricate inlays and onlays — custom-fitted ceramic restorations used when a filling is not sufficient but a full crown is not yet necessary.
CAD/CAM restorations are milled to tolerances of fractions of a millimetre, ensuring a fit that is difficult to achieve with traditional laboratory techniques.
What this means for you: A longer-lasting, better-fitting restoration that preserves more of your natural tooth structure — and in many cases, delivered in a single visit.
4. Digital X-Rays: Faster, Safer Diagnostics
Lassus Tandartsen uses digital radiography as part of its diagnostic routine. Compared to traditional film X-rays, digital sensors capture detailed images almost instantly and with significantly less radiation exposure.
These images can be enlarged, adjusted for contrast, and shared easily between specialists within the practice — supporting faster and more accurate diagnoses of issues such as hidden cavities, bone loss, or root problems.
What this means for you: Your dentist can spot problems earlier, explain findings more clearly, and make more informed treatment decisions — all while keeping your radiation exposure to a minimum.
5. Invisalign®: Orthodontics Without the Wire
For patients who want straighter teeth without traditional metal braces, Lassus Tandartsen is an Invisalign® provider. This system uses a series of custom-made, virtually invisible removable aligners to gradually reposition the teeth.
The treatment starts with a digital 3D scan and a simulation showing the projected end result before you commit. Aligners are changed every one to two weeks as treatment progresses.
What this means for you: Discreet, comfortable orthodontic treatment that fits around your life. Because the aligners are removable, there are no dietary restrictions and cleaning your teeth is as straightforward as it has always been.
6. Digital Treatment Planning: Your Full Picture, Before Treatment Begins
At Lassus Tandartsen, every new patient receives a personalised treatment plan — including a clear cost overview. Digital tools allow the team to map out complex cases, combine information from scans, X-rays and clinical findings, and present patients with a complete picture of their oral health.
What this means for you: No surprises. You understand exactly what needs to be done, in what order, and at what cost — before any treatment begins.
7. Implantology: Replacing Missing Teeth with Precision
When a tooth is missing, dental implants offer the most natural-looking and functionally superior replacement. Lassus Tandartsen places implants using a combination of digital imaging and surgical guides, ensuring precise positioning within the jawbone.
Once the implant has integrated with the bone, a CEREC-milled crown can be placed on top — meaning the entire process, from implant to final restoration, is completed in-house.
What this means for you: A permanent, natural-feeling replacement for a missing tooth — without ever needing to visit an external specialist.
