Area of Science:

  • Dental Technology
  • Digital Dentistry
  • Oral Healthcare Innovation

Background:

  • Modern dentistry is increasingly adopting digital technologies.
  • Intraoral scanners (IOSs) represent a significant advancement in this digital transformation.
  • IOSs offer an alternative to traditional dental impression materials.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight the impact of digital technology, specifically IOSs, on modern dental practices.
  • To outline the key considerations for selecting an intraoral scanner for a dental practice.
  • To emphasize the importance of practice assessment before choosing an IOS.

Main Methods:

  • The study discusses the capabilities of intraoral scanners in capturing 3D digital models.
  • It emphasizes the process of evaluating practice-specific needs.
  • Comparison of IOS advantages and disadvantages is presented in the context of practice requirements.

Main Results:

  • Intraoral scanners eliminate the need for traditional impression materials.
  • Immediate digital capture of 3D objects is a key feature of IOS technology.
  • The selection of an "ideal" IOS is contingent upon a thorough practice assessment.

Conclusions:

  • Intraoral scanners are a transformative technology in contemporary dentistry.
  • Key factors for IOS selection include procedure types, practice demands, and patient demographics.
  • A practice-specific assessment is crucial for effectively comparing and choosing among various IOS options.
