Frequently Asked Questions

The fastmill.io In‑Office Mill is a dental mill that allows doctors to fabricate restorations chairside. That means faster appointments, no more lab bills, and better clinical control.

The fastmill.io meets the demands of most everyday restorative cases—including crowns, inlays, onlays, veneers and select bridge applications—making it a versatile solution for both routine and more complex treatments. With a range of materials available for multiple indications, it supports everything from chairside provisionals to long-term permanent restorations.

With the ability to make restorations yourself, that means you can complete cases in just a single appointment—often in under an hour. No more waiting on the lab, no more waiting for remakes.

Yes. The fastmill.io is an open system designed to pair with your preferred intraoral scanner.

  • Manufacturer support from Glidewell—the biggest lab in North America
  • Faster turnaround
  • Greater control over quality
  • Reduced lab costs
  • Better patient experience
  • More predictability

The biggest cost-saving advantage is that chairside milling helps reduce non-revenue visits that can quickly add up. Dental chair time can represent $300–$500+ per hour in combined overhead and lost production opportunity, making every additional appointment costly. Instead of prepping a case, placing a temporary, and bringing the patient back once the crown returns from the lab, you can deliver the restoration the same day. That means fewer follow-up visits—and fewer headaches when a temporary comes off.

With each crown you mill using fastmill.io™, that’s one less lab fee, one less shipping cost, and reduced material expenses. The more you use it, the greater your return on investment. Interested in a personalized ROI based on your actual case mix and production numbers? Check out our ROI calculator.

Absolutely! The fastmill.io supports everything from posterior crowns to more esthetic anterior cases, helping practices deliver high-quality restorations efficiently. We also offer a number of educational courses, including an advanced anterior program, to help fastmill.io users broaden their skills with in-office restorations.

No one likes having to spend time booking multiple appointments, especially patients. The fastmill.io makes it possible for your patients to receive permanent, lab-quality restorations in just one appointment. That means fewer visits, faster results, and no need for patients to take additional time away from work or school—or return for follow-up appointments if a temporary comes off. The added convenience creates a better patient experience and encourages patients to recommend your practice to others.

Training starts right in your office. A fastmill.io specialist will handle the installation and provide hands‑on training for you and your team, walking through the full workflow—from designing restorations to milling and day‑to‑day operation—so you can feel confident using the system from the start.

After installation, you’ll be assigned a dedicated Customer Support Manager who serves as your main point of contact.
