It’s a device (mostly handheld – but not always) that is useful in creating digital impression in dental practice. Do you remember the old days where your dentist would make dental impression from polyvinyl?
The process of taking physical impressions of patients’ mouths is fraught with difficulty. Applying the paste is uncomfortable, causes gagging, and can be inaccurate, leading to less-than-ideal prosthetic sizing and placement. Because of this, Korean company Medit began building 3D digital scanners in the 2000s. The idea was to make dentists’ and patients’ lives easier, […]
Understanding the structure of a patient’s mouth has been challenging dentists for decades. While X-rays are great for identifying solid tissues, like teeth and bones, they don’t reveal much about the soft tissues, like the gums and palate. Now, though, 3Shape (along with other brands in the industry) are using 3D scanning technology to transform […]
The world of dentistry is undergoing a drastic transformation, and it’s all thanks to digital tools that are making visits quicker, easier, and more accurate than ever. One of the biggest advancements is the intraoral scanner, a handheld device that’s replacing traditional molds and impressions with fast, clean, and incredibly precise digital images. These scanners […]
The need for faster, more precise digital impressions has never been more important in the dental world. As patient expectations rise and workflows evolve, dentists are increasingly turning to advanced intraoral scanners that streamline clinical processes, enhance diagnostic accuracy, and deliver a better overall experience for their patients. Whether it’s for restorative work, orthodontics, implant […]
Those working in dentistry need to consider the importance of having the right equipment that can help them with seamless workflow and smooth operation. With constant innovation in healthcare industry, it’s not really a surprise that modern (and sophisticated) machines have been created and developed. Modern dental intraoral scanner is one of them, and it’s […]
