About Compass3D®

Compass3D is the result of a legacy of passion and pioneering spirit that was passed from father to son since the early 70s.

As a student of dentistry, Mark Gribel imported in 1976, with the support of his father, the first dental radiography device in Minas Gerais. Working within his father's office, Joseph of Arimathea Gribel, one of the first orthodontists in the country, he rendered services to dentists in the state capital.  With courses in Germany, Spain and the United States, achieved thanks to the contacts of Dr. Joseph of Arimathea, Mark soon began to provide services not only for cephalometry in Belo Horizonte, but for the entire state of Minas Gerais.

With the arrival of the 1980s, Mark discovered the personal computer and saw the new technology as a way to streamline his work.  He developed a program to make the necessary calculations for cephalometry, and  never stopped. As the technology progressed, its software was upgraded to the newest platforms. His son, Bruno Gribel also trained in dentistry and passionate about technology, transported all the work for his father's 3D technology, which enabled the creation of a virtual model of the face in high precision, revolutionizing the world of orthodontic treatment, implants and surgeries.  The fusion of technology with technical dental knowledge resulted in the Compass being recognized as synonymous with excellence in the areas of diagnosis, planning and prototyping in various specializations of dentistry.
