1. What is a Dental Intraoral Scanner?
A dental intraoral scanner is a digital imaging device that captures accurate 3D models of a patient’s oral cavity. By projecting structured light and reconstructing point clouds through triangulation algorithms, it replaces traditional impression materials and supports a fully digital workflow in modern dentistry.
2. Advantages of Dental Intraoral Scanners
Digital accuracy: Delivers high-resolution 3D images with 20μm accuracy.
Time-saving: Scans quickly with minimal patient discomfort.
Patient-friendly: Comfortable, no more messy impression trays.
AI-powered features: Automatic bite adjustment, margin detection, undercut analysis.
Real-time visualization: 3D model updates live on screen.
Integration-ready: Exports in STL/PLY/OBJ for CAD/CAM and 3D printing.
Versatile rendering: Realistic, enhanced, or vivid color rendering options.
3. Principles of Dental Intraoral Scanners
The scanner works based on structured light projection and triangulation. It projects a light pattern onto the object, captures the deformation through cameras, and reconstructs the 3D structure using point cloud algorithms. AI algorithms stitch the captured frames into a complete digital model.
4. Applications of Dental Intraoral Scanners
General dentistry: Crowns, bridges, and inlays/onlays design.
Implantology: Accurate implant scanning using scan posts.
Orthodontics: Simulation of tooth movement and aligner design.
Dental labs: Model design for digital workflows and 3D printing.
Treatment planning: Clear visualization for patient consultation.
Color matching: Automatic shade suggestion tool.
