Dental Impressions with digital scanner
The advent of new technologies in the field of medication and dentistry is giving enhancements that lead clinicians to have materials and procedures ready to work on patients' quality of life.
Digital Impressions (also known as 3D intraoral scanning) is an advanced technology in capturing a replica of the mouth. By utilizing a wand-like device connected to a computer and advanced software, a dental specialist can make a virtual model of the hard and soft tissues in the mouth. These replicas are more precise than mold and can be utilized for various needs. After taking a scan of the mouth, a dental specialist can promptly send the digital impression to a lab where dentures, crowns, bridges, and retainers can be made rapidly and precisely.

What are the advantages of digital impressions?
Digital optical impressions fundamentally increment productivity, efficiency, and accuracy, and make it feasible for dental specialists to email the virtual impression to the lab, rather than send a conventional impression or stone model utilizing normal transport. Likewise, digital impressions can be utilized to make same-day dentistry restorations, accordingly accelerating patient treatment and decreasing the need for multiple clinic visits.
Different advantages of digital impressions include:
- Improved image/impression quality for better-fitting restorations
- Less chair time
- No need for unpleasant impression materials that may cause some patients to gag reflexes.
- More comfortable, less anxious experience for patients and the dental team
- Minimized possibility of impression-taking errors and removal of material errors
- The digital impression can be stored electronically indefinitely, which saves space, contributes to efficient recordkeeping, and supports a paper-free environment.
- Patients will appreciate the innovation and cutting-edge dental care, so they become more engaged in, and better informed about, the treatment process since they can see their impacts on-screen chairside.
- The output can be completed in only 3-5 minutes.
