“Extraordinary” is how 3Shape’s CEO, Jakob Just-Bomholt, sums up the company’s first 20 years. From its beginnings as a visionary startup to its current status as an international industry leader, 3Shape’s rapid growth and success are, as he puts it, a direct result of its success in serving 3 different target groups with highly innovative solutions—first, the hearing aid industry, then CAD/CAM dental labs, and now, the groundbreaking TRIOS line of intraoral scanners for dentists., ,How does 3Shape accomplish its goals? “We do this by working with our customers—always listening to the clinicians and lab technicians, and making digital workflows based on their input and needs,” Just-Bomholt says. “Our systems work with most milling machines, materials, 3D printers, and implant systems, and dentists can connect to a huge range of treatment providers. Creating this open ecosystem of all digital dentistry can offer is one of our greatest achievements.”, ,“Good innovation, for us, needs to truly add value to dental professionals and, especially, their patients,” he explains. “With TRIOS and the innovative technologies within, 3Shape raised the bar in terms of scan speed, scan accuracy, and ease of use. Another market changer was our launch of the TRIOS 3 Basic scanner, which made intraoral scanning available to cost-conscious doctors and their patients. And, finally, 3Shape’s open system philosophy gives doctors […] and, thereby, their patients choices instead of locking them into specific treatment providers. [That’s] truly moving the needle forward in terms of the patient’s perspective of dental care.”
