DS Core Dental Lab Integration for Sirona Digital Workflows
DS Core has become a central hub for many practices using Sirona digital technology. When it is paired with a reliable, quality-focused dental lab, the result is a streamlined workflow, predictable restorations, and fewer surprises at the seat appointment. This resource explains how to connect your DS Core account with Rohling Dental Laboratory, what to expect from the workflow, and how to get the most from your Sirona ecosystem.

Add Rohling Dental Laboratory on DS CoreWhy You’re Here
If you’re reading this, one or more of the following is probably true:
- Your practice is already using Primescan, Omnicam, or the DS Core platform.
- You’re looking for a DS Core compatible dental lab that values quality over volume.
- Digital cases feel efficient on the front end, but inconsistent lab results are costing you time on the back end.
- You want a straightforward way to connect your Sirona workflow to a lab that actually communicates.
The goal of this page is to give you a clear, non-technical overview of DS Core integration with our lab, so you can make an informed, low-risk decision about your digital lab partner.
What DS Core Integration Means for Your Practice
A digital system is only as strong as its weakest link. If your scanner, software, and scheduling are dialed in but your lab work is unpredictable, your patients still feel the impact.
When your DS Core account is connected to a lab that is built for small-batch, quality-driven crown and bridge work, you gain:
- More predictable seats with fewer adjustments and remakes.
- Consistent contact, occlusion, and margins from case to case.
- Reduced administrative friction—no more exporting, zipping, and emailing STL files.
- Faster communication when something needs clarification.
Our intention at Rohling Dental Laboratory is simple: let DS Core handle the data transfer, and let our technicians handle the craftsmanship.
What Is DS Core in Practical Terms?
DS Core is Dentsply Sirona’s cloud-based platform for managing digital dentistry. In day-to-day use, it functions as:
- A central hub for Primescan and Omnicam data.
- A place where your team can review, annotate, and organize case information.
- A secure channel to send cases directly to a DS Core compatible dental lab.
When your clinical team captures a scan, it can be uploaded to DS Core, reviewed, and then transmitted to Rohling Dental Laboratory with just a few clicks. There is no need to manage separate export settings, email attachments, or third-party transfer tools.
Why a DS Core Compatible Dental Lab Matters
Connecting your scanner to “any lab” is not the same as connecting to a lab that is intentionally structured around quality, communication, and long-term consistency.
When your DS Core cases are routed to a quality-focused lab, you benefit from:
- Clean digital intake: consistent file formats and case data reduce errors at the design stage.
- Standardized preferences: once your occlusal, contact, and material preferences are documented, they carry across cases.
- Technical feedback: if something in the scan can be improved, we can point it out early, not after a remake.
- Aligned priorities: our lab is intentionally not a high-volume, low-touch operation. Your cases are not competing with mass production jobs.
In short, DS Core optimizes data transfer, but the lab you choose determines the clinical outcome. Our role is to be a reliable extension of your digital workflow—not a bottleneck.

DS Core Case Workflow With Rohling Dental Laboratory
Once your DS Core account is connected to our lab, your daily use becomes very straightforward. A typical DS Core case flow looks like this:
- 1. Capture the scan using Primescan or Omnicam, with your usual retraction and moisture control protocol.
- 2. Review in DS Core and confirm that the margins, contacts, and occlusion are clearly visible.
- 3. Select Rohling Dental Laboratory as the receiving lab during case submission.
- 4. Add instructions including material choice, shade, special design requests, and any photos you wish to attach.
- 5. Case intake at our lab where a technician reviews your scan and prescription before design begins.
- 6. Fabrication and quality control with attention to fit, occlusion, and esthetics rather than throughput volume.
- 7. Delivery and follow-up with clear communication if anything in the scan or preparation can be optimized for future cases.
From your side, the workflow feels like using DS Core with an integrated, responsive lab. From our side, it gives us the data we need to support you with the same level of consistency case after case.
Tips to Optimize Sirona Digital Cases Through DS Core
Digital workflows are powerful, but they still depend on strong fundamentals. A few practical tips help your DS Core cases perform at their best:
- Margin visibility first: before you leave the preparation screen, confirm that the margin is visible 360° with adequate retraction.
- Moisture control: saliva and crevicular fluid can reduce scan clarity. Isolate and dry as you would for a traditional impression.
- Opposing and bite scans: complete, accurate opposing and bite registrations give us the information needed for clean occlusal design.
- Clear notes in DS Core: use the comment fields for special instructions, preferred emergence profile, or esthetic concerns.
- Photos when helpful: pre-op photos, shade maps, and smile views can be attached to support anterior esthetics.
If we consistently see a specific pattern in scan quality or prep design, we’ll let you know. Our goal is not to criticize, but to help you reduce friction at the seat appointment.
How We Partner With DS Core Practices
Many practices come to us after working with high-volume labs that are also connected to DS Core, but don’t offer much support beyond fabrication. Our approach is different:
- Direct access to technicians: you can speak with someone who actually works on your cases.
- Case-by-case feedback: if something in the scan or prescription could be improved, we’ll let you know in practical terms.
- Consistency over time: once your preferences are understood, we aim to make each case feel familiar—not like working with a different lab every time.
- Digital plus analog experience: our technicians understand both digital workflows and the fundamentals of crown and bridge dentistry.
DS Core is the delivery system; our lab is the craftsmanship behind the restorations your patients experience.
Key Takeaways
- DS Core centralizes Sirona digital workflows and simplifies sending cases to your lab.
- A DS Core compatible dental lab is essential, but outcomes depend on the lab’s priorities—not just the software connection.
- Rohling Dental Laboratory is intentionally small-batch and quality-driven, making DS Core a natural fit for our style of work.
- Connecting your DS Core account to our lab is fast and reversible; you can evaluate us with a single case before making any broader changes.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to change my scanner settings to use DS Core with your lab?
In most cases, no. If you are already sending cases through DS Core or Sirona Connect, connecting to Rohling Dental Laboratory is mainly a matter of adding us as a receiving lab. If any specific settings need to be updated, we’ll walk your team through them.
Can I try one DS Core case before fully switching labs?
Yes. Many practices start with a single crown or bridge case to evaluate our fit, communication, and turnaround. You do not need to stop working with your current lab to test a case with us.
Is DS Core more accurate than traditional impressions?
Accuracy depends on preparation, tissue management, and technique. DS Core offers efficient digital workflows, but scanners still require clear margin visibility and moisture control. When fundamentals are respected, both digital and traditional methods can be highly accurate.
Can you help train my team on DS Core case submission?
We are happy to support assistants, hygienists, or administrative staff with basic DS Core submission workflows, preferred case information, and tips to reduce remakes or delays. A short call or virtual session is often enough to get everyone comfortable.
