Digital Impressions

The TRIOS 3Shape Digital Impression Scanner


Planning your dental restoration is a detailed process involving careful digital measurements and a highly-precise impression of your teeth and dental ridges. Traditionally, this impression is made from biocompatible alginate material, and is used to accurately create your dental crown, bridge, or implant-supported prosthesis.

What Is Digital Impression Scanning?

The Trios 3Shape digital impression scanner is a 3-in-1 solution that produces highly-detailed 3D color impressions with the ease of an intraoral camera. The scanner also has a wide range of applications, and can be used for most patients who require a custom, lifelike restoration. With the Trios 3Shape digital impression scanner, we can create most impressions digitally, eliminating conventional, messy material impressions for many patients. Digital impressions also allow us to perform high-tech dentistry in a more comfortable and expeditious manner, and offer a number of benefits.

For instance, the scanner is great alternative for patients who gag on the gooey, gel-type material of traditional impressions. Also, with a digital model instead of a material one, our trusted laboratory can craft your restoration faster, and with increased accuracy thanks to the scanner’s advanced tooth shade detection technology. Now, we can restore your smile faster, with more beautiful, lifelike, and effective results.
