# How to choose the best CAD software?
24 June, 2022
One of the most important allies of a digitised dental technician's laboratory is good CAD software. This solution will not only save time, but also provide daily support and help the specialist in carrying out his work.
But what exactly is a CAD software? CAD software has been an established reality in various sectors for several years (industrial, aeronautical, automotive). Today, a CAD (Computer Aided Design) software can also be useful for dental technicians as it is a system that enables them to carry out the digital design of dental devices and then produce prosthetic restorations (crowns, implants and prostheses) using CAM (Computer Aided Manufacturing).
The CAM/CAM dental technician laboratory is therefore the one that has reached such a level of digitalisation that it can operate by exploiting the potential of specific software for the design and manufacture of artefacts.
## The most important features that a CAD software must have
Let's focus, in concrete terms, on what are the advantages of using CAD software:
- High level of accuracy;
- Easier to evaluate digital dental impressions than traditional ones;
- The **design is extremely precise** thanks to the previously acquired accurate measurements, which are useful for the final manufacture;
- The **speed** of creating prostheses, crowns or any other restoration is increased, improving the overall treatment workflow;
- It is possible to get an idea of the final result on the patient's mouth even before the necessary prosthesis has been made.
For these reasons, it is important to remember that a CAD software should be flexible, open, with the possibility of integration with other software.
In conclusion, we can state that choosing to exploit CAD potential represents, for a Dental Laboratory, the first and truly great step towards a concrete and successful digital evolution.
