ROE Dental Laboratory introduced ArchBridge for Overdenture, a patent-pending, fully digital scanning system and workflow for fixed and removable overdenture cases, the company said on October 21, 2026. The Independence, Ohio laboratory said clinicians capture attachment positions intraorally with six reusable titanium scan bodies, and that housings are placed in the prosthesis under controlled laboratory conditions with no poured models, analogs or chairside pickup.

## How the ArchBridge Scan Bodies Work

[ROE Dental Laboratory](https://akta.pro/company-profiles/000imt8/roe-dental-laboratory) built the ArchBridge scan bodies and libraries around the abutment attachment itself, extending its Grammetry full-arch scan body system. Each of the six scan bodies has its own geometry, giving the scanner a distinct reference point at every position. The scan bodies press-fit directly onto the overdenture abutments, and tactile seating confirms when they are ready to scan. A sandblasted titanium surface reduces reflection to support reliable optical capture.

"Overdentures are a great solution for patients, but the traditional workflow is time consuming and costly for the practice," said BJ Kowalski, CEO of ROE Dental Laboratory. "We kept receiving cases where we couldn't confidently determine the attachment positions from the digital data, so we built a scan body system to solve that problem. Now the doctor scans, sends us the records, and we provide a definitive denture, ready for insertion."

ROE positions and cures the housings in the lab, so attachment placement no longer depends on chairside procedures. The company said this replaces chairside blockout and intraoral acrylic pickup, along with the rework that follows when a housing binds or a spacer shifts during cure. ArchBridge is compatible with most major overdenture systems and supports replacing an existing overdenture, converting a healing denture, and converting a removable overdenture to a fixed hybrid. The kit can be autoclaved between patients and comes with spacers and placement tools. Kits are available now at [roedentallab.com](https://www.roedentallab.com), along with a free ArchBridge for Overdenture guide in digital or print format.

## ROE Dental's Digital Production Scale

According to akta.pro [company records](https://akta.pro/company-data), ROE Dental tripled denture production capacity in May 2026 through deployment of 3D Systems' denture printers, and it launched Passivity Plus, an FDA-cleared self-adjusting titanium coping with a NikolasBase internal mechanism for full-arch implant restorations, in the same month. The same records list ROE as an authorized distributor of Shining 3D dental technology products and a provider of RealGUIDE software for reviewing and approving CT-based treatment plans. The records put ROE's crown and bridge output at 60,000 units annually and its dentures fabricated in the last decade at more than 200,000.
