How to Unlock the Power with Intraoral Scanner

FAQ

How Does an Intraoral Scanner Work?
An intraoral scanner uses optical and digital technology to capture 3D images of a patient’s oral cavity. The handheld device projects a light source onto the teeth and soft tissues, which is then reflected back and captured by sensors. Specialized software processes this data to create a detailed digital 3D model in real-time, allowing dentists to analyze and design restorations without the need for traditional impressions.
What Are the Types of Intraoral Scanners?
Intraoral scanners can be categorized by technology and usage. Common types include confocal scanners, Structured Light scanners, and intraoral photogrammetry (IPG). Some are wired, others wireless; some focus on speed and full-arch scanning, while others are optimized for accuracy for all all-on-X implant cases or integration with CAD/CAM systems. Each type varies in resolution, ease of use, and clinical application.
How to Use Intraoral Scanner?
To use an intraoral scanner, the dentist or technician gently inserts the scanner into the patient’s mouth. The scanner is moved smoothly over the teeth and gums, capturing images in real-time. Proper technique involves steady hand movement, correct angulation, and ensuring full coverage of all surfaces. The scanned data is then processed into a 3D model for diagnostics, planning, or restoration design.
Why Use an Intraoral Scanner?
Intraoral scanners offer enhanced comfort, speed, and accuracy compared to traditional impressions. They reduce patient discomfort, improve communication with labs, and enable digital workflows like CAD/CAM and 3D printing. Scanners also help in better diagnosis, treatment planning, and documentation. Overall, they streamline procedures, save time, and improve clinical outcomes.
What are the Clinical Applications of intraoral scanners?
Intraoral scanners are used in a variety of dental specialties. Common applications include orthodontics (for aligners and retainers), prosthodontics (crowns, bridges, inlays, veneers, etc), implantology (guide planning, full arch restorations, etc), and general dentistry (cavity detection, records, and oral health management). They also assist in digital smile design, monitoring wear or gingival changes, and facilitating patient education through visual models.
What Makes Shining 3D Dental Intraoral Scanners Special?
Shining 3D Dental intraoral scanners stand out due to their comprehensive product range, covering everything from entry-level models to the high-end Elite series, which is suitable for complex full-arch implant cases.
