3D Dental Digital Impressions

The first step in creating a new crown or bridge restoration is making a dental impression. In the past, this meant having to bite into a tray filled with putty-like impression material. The 3M ^TM True Definition Scanner helps replace that unpleasant procedure. It allows your dentist to take extremely accurate digital impressions of your teeth.

How 3M ^TM True Definition Scanner makes dentistry more comfortable.

1. Prep and Dust - Your dentist preps your teeth and applies a light dusting of a tasteless powder.
2. Scan and Review - Your dentist then passes the wand over your teeth. Sophisticated optics gather precise digital images and a 3D impression appears immediately on the touch screen monitor.
3. Send - Your digital impression and a lab prescription are sent electronically to a dental lab, which creates a highly accurate, precise-fitting restoration.
4. Final appointment - Your smile is complete with the seating of the finished restoration.
