Passionate About Making a Difference
in the lives of patients and denturists. 

At Perfit, we are passionate about helping practitioners transition to digital dentures. 

Canada's Leader in Digital Dentures 

2007 - 2015 - Owned and operated 5 denture clinics in Calgary, Alberta. Perfit purchased their first intra-oral scanner and completed their first prototype in 2012.

2015 - Founded Perfit and sold the clinics. A year later, Perfit created the world's first FULLY digital denture. A patients mouth was scanned, a flipper was designed digitally and milled all within 2  hours. This proof of concept helped propel the company forward to further innovation. 

2016 - 2022 - Perfit became experts in all things digital - milling machines, 3D printers, face scanners, box scanners, intra-oral scanners, extra-oral scanners and all major CAD software. Perfit scaled their solutions with partners in Canada, the USA and Europe. With funding from the National Research Council, Atrium Ventures and local super angels, Perfit jumped into digital denture production.

Dentistry in the Information Age

Certainly for some this will be a disruptive era, but for others it will open up a world of new possibilities. In an ever-changing world, it is hard to imagine what the future will look like.

And as jobs become less physical and more virtual, people will increasingly have to compete with a global workforce.
