Understanding Intra-Oral Scanners
A look into the technology behind intra-oral scanners and how they work.
Intra-oral scanners use advanced imaging technology to capture detailed, 3D images of your teeth and gums. During the scanning process, a small, handheld device is moved around your mouth, capturing thousands of pictures per second. These images are then compiled into a precise digital model of your dental anatomy. The process is quick, comfortable, and non-invasive, providing highly accurate results without the need for traditional impression materials. This digital model is used for a variety of dental applications, from designing restorations to planning orthodontic treatments.
