ChairsideCAD, available from exocad, is the choice of software for leading manufacturers of dental CAD/CAM systems, according to the company, and it has been selected as a Cellerant Best of Class Technology Award recipient in 2019 and 2020.

“We are entering a new era in dentistry — one that will change how we diagnose, treat and manage our patients and practices,” said Dr. Lou Shuman, CEO of Cellerant and founder of the Best of Class Technology Awards. “This was a breakthrough year in product and services technologies. The panel spent hundreds of hours in close discussion reviewing and analyzing the corporate landscape. Pay close attention to our winners as they are truly leading the way to provide you what is best in today’s contemporary practice.”

With exocad’s ChairsideCAD, clinicians have the freedom to choose the best hardware and software for same-day dentistry regardless of the product or system they prefer. This is a groundbreaking evolution, according to the company, since historically the industry has been limited to specific workflows and specific hardware/software working together and adhering to a more closed architecture.

Derived from exocad DentalCAD, a signature software solution within the dental laboratory marketplace for more than a decade, ChairsideCAD includes dentalshare, a powerful collaboration tool for clinicians and labs, according to the company.

“We are honored to receive this prestigious industry award from our clinical audience. With exocad ChairsideCAD, clinicians can access labs, design and production centers with freedom of choice,” said Larry Bodony, president of exocad America. “With this open and flexible workflow, clinicians can maximize their return on investment as well as valuable chair time.”

“Our goal is to help the doctor make the best decisions for their office, which, in the end, benefits the patients that we all serve,” said John Flucke, DDS, Best of Class panel member. “I’m honored to be able to help my peers with the decision-making process and helping them wade through the plethora of high-tech products that can change offices and lives for the better.”

Bodony said, “Having received the Best of Class Award from the Cellerant Company and recognition from their exclusive panel of experts is truly an honor.”

The honour was awarded by the Faculty of Dentistry, RCSI, in recognition of Prof. Verma’s distinguished contributions to dental education, academic leadership, and higher education administration spanning several decades. RCSI is internationally recognised as one of the leading professional institutions in healthcare and dental education.

The Fellowship was conferred during the RCSI Fellows, Members and Diplomates Conferring Ceremony, which brought together academicians, healthcare professionals and graduands from several countries.

Reacting to the honour, Prof. Verma said the Fellowship was a humbling recognition of his academic journey. “This honour from the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland is deeply humbling. It reflects the collective efforts of colleagues and institutions I have been associated with over the years, and reinforces the importance of sustained academic collaboration and professional excellence in higher education,” he said.

The international recognition reflects the growing global engagement of Indian academic leadership and highlights the role of Indian universities in international professional and scholarly forums. The Fellowship enhances Prof. Verma’s academic profile and underscores GGSIPU’s expanding global outreach.
