What is the intraoral scanner?
The intraoral scanner is a cutting-edge device that replaces the traditional method of taking physical impressions of your teeth and gums using dirty impression materials. Instead, it uses advanced digital technology to capture detailed and accurate 3D images of your oral structures.
BENEFITS
The benefits of intraoral scanner technology
- Enhanced accuracy: Intraoral scanners provide high-precision digital impressions of your teeth, gums and bite. This precision ensures accurate treatment planning and helps us achieve optimal results for procedures such as crowns, bridges, orthodontics and more.
- Comfortable experience: Say goodbye to the hassle and choking reflex often associated with traditional imprinting materials. Intraoral scanners are designed to be non-invasive and non-irritating, offering a more comfortable experience for our patients.
- Efficient workflow: With digital fingerprints, we can streamline the treatment process by eliminating the need for physical fingerprints, reducing appointment times and minimising the number of visits required.
- Improved communication: Our intraoral scanner technology allows us to project the digital images onto a screen, giving you a clear visual representation of your oral condition. This helps us explain treatment plans, discuss potential concerns and involve you in the decision-making process.
- Improved patient engagement: By involving you in the digital imaging process, we can educate and empower you to take an active role in your oral health journey. You can better understand your dental condition, visualize treatment options, and make informed decisions about your care.

DIGITIZE YOUR SMILE
Digital Smile Design (DSD)
"Digital Smile Design" (DSD) is a concept and technology used in cosmetic dentistry to improve smile rejuvenation and dental treatments. DSD combines digital imaging, photography and computer software to create a detailed analysis and simulation of a patient's smile.
The process includes the following steps:
- Data collection: The dentist or dental technician takes high-quality photographs, videos and digital impressions of the patient's teeth, gums and face.
- Digital analysis: The collected data is then entered into specialised DSD software, where the dentist can carefully analyse the patient's smile and facial features.
- Smile design simulation: Using DSD software, the dentist can create a digital simulation of the desired smile makeover, allowing the patient to see the potential outcome before any treatment is performed.
- Design of the treatment: The dentist can use digital simulation to plan and discuss various treatment options with the patient, ensuring that the end result meets the patient's expectations.
- Precision dental restorations: In cases where dental restorations, such as crowns or veneers, are required, DSD software can help create custom restorations that fit perfectly and match the desired smile design.
- Communication and cooperation: DSD facilitates better communication and cooperation between the patient, the dentist and the dental laboratory, ensuring a more predictable and satisfactory result.
DSD has become increasingly popular as it allows for a more personalized and patient-centered approach to cosmetic dentistry, leading to greater patient satisfaction and more predictable results.
