As digital dentistry continues to redefine clinical and laboratory workflows across Europe, many Dental Service Organizations (DSOs) still face a fundamental barrier to transformation: high upfront investment. Godent, an end-to-end digital dental laboratory service provider, is addressing this challenge by launching its Free Intraoral Scanner Program for European DSOs — a zero-investment model designed to accelerate the transition to fully digital dental workflows.
Headquartered in Istanbul, Turkey, Godent operates at the intersection of dental technology, centralized manufacturing, and cross-border logistics. The company delivers a fully integrated digital workflow that covers every stage of dental laboratory operations, from intraoral scanning and case communication to production and international delivery. By combining proprietary software infrastructure with a cost-efficient manufacturing hub and optimized logistics for Europe, Godent aims to remove both financial and operational friction from digital adoption.
A Scanner-as-a-Service Model Built for Scale
The Free Intraoral Scanner Program is built around a scanner-as-a-service approach tailored specifically for DSOs that have not yet completed their digital transition. Instead of purchasing scanners, software licenses, and IT infrastructure, participating organizations receive intraoral scanners and the required digital ecosystem at no upfront cost.
Under this model, Godent takes full responsibility for the digital transformation process. This includes scanner deployment, software integration, workflow standardization, training, and ongoing operational support. Clinical teams are onboarded into Godent’s lab portal and communication infrastructure, enabling seamless collaboration between clinics and the laboratory from the first scan to final delivery.
For DSOs operating across multiple locations, this approach offers a standardized digital workflow without the complexity of managing multiple vendors, platforms, or internal IT resources. It also allows organizations to convert from analog to digital processes without disrupting daily clinical operations.
First European DSO Agreement Marks Operational Launch
The launch of the Free Intraoral Scanner Program follows Godent’s first strategic DSO agreement in Europe, which serves as the operational starting point for the company’s zero-investment digital model in the region. As part of this partnership, Godent has already begun installing intraoral scanners across clinic locations and integrating dental teams into its end-to-end digital laboratory workflows.
This initial agreement validates the scalability of Godent’s model and demonstrates how DSOs can modernize their laboratory operations without capital expenditure. By centralizing production in Turkey while maintaining tight digital integration with European clinics, Godent is able to offer competitive turnaround times and consistent quality across borders.
Eliminating Investment Barriers in Digital Dentistry
For many DSOs, the transition to digital dentistry is not a question of strategic intent but of financial feasibility. High equipment costs, fragmented software systems, and the need for internal digital expertise often slow adoption. Godent’s approach directly targets these barriers.
By eliminating upfront investment, the company allows DSOs to shift their focus from infrastructure spending to clinical performance and patient outcomes. Standardized digital workflows also improve predictability, reduce remakes, and enhance communication between clinics and the laboratory — factors that are especially critical for large, multi-site organizations.
Expansion Plans: 10+ DSO Groups and Private Clinics by 2026
Looking ahead, Godent plans to scale its European operations aggressively. The company aims to partner with more than 10 DSO groups across Europe by the end of 2026, expanding its scanner-as-a-service network and strengthening its logistics and production capacity to support growing demand.
In parallel, Godent intends to open the program to private dental clinics before the end of 2026. By extending the same zero-investment model to independent practices, the company seeks to democratize access to digital dental laboratory services beyond large organizations.
This dual expansion strategy reflects a broader trend in healthcare technology: shifting from ownership-based models to service-driven platforms that prioritize accessibility, scalability, and operational efficiency.
