Dental Flash is a free case Design program was developed as a visual aid for case planning attachment and implant restorations. Dental Flash allows you to select the position for existing teeth, crown abutments, roots or implants. Symbols for the restorative components are then added. Each Case design can be saved into and recalled from a folder on your computer. The saved case designed can also be sent online as an e-mail attachment to a colleague who also has the program installed
