A remake is the re-fabrication of a dental restoration because the first result does not fit, breaks or misses quality requirements. Remakes cost twice: the material and machine time of the failed production plus the complete second fabrication, on top of schedule delays and coordination effort between lab, milling center and practice. A relevant share of remakes traces back to file problems that were detectable before production.
Which remakes are avoidable?
All those whose cause already sits in the production data: wall thickness violations, undercuts, margin defects, wrong orientation. Exactly this class is caught by an automated incoming file check.
