What is Digital Scanning with TRIOS 5?
Digital scanning with the TRIOS 5 is a modern alternative to traditional dental impressions. Traditionally, taking dental impressions involved using trays filled with a putty-like material that patients would need to bite down on for several minutes. This process could be uncomfortable and sometimes resulted in less-than-perfect impressions, requiring additional appointments or adjustments.
The TRIOS 5 digital scanner replaces this outdated method with a fast, precise, and comfortable scanning process. This device uses advanced 3D imaging technology to capture detailed digital impressions of your teeth and gums. The TRIOS 5 scanner is small, handheld, and completely non-invasive, making it a more patient-friendly option for dental impressions.
Benefits of TRIOS 5 Digital Scanning
There are several key benefits of using the TRIOS 5 digital scanner for dental impressions, both for patients and dental professionals:
1. Enhanced Comfort
One of the most significant advantages of the TRIOS 5 digital scanner is the comfort it provides to patients. Traditional impression materials can be messy, uncomfortable, and even induce gagging for some individuals. The TRIOS 5 eliminates the need for these materials, offering a more comfortable experience for patients of all ages. The scanner is simply moved over the teeth, capturing the necessary data without any discomfort.
2. Increased Accuracy
The TRIOS 5 scanner provides highly accurate digital impressions, ensuring that dental restorations, such as crowns, bridges, and veneers, fit perfectly. This level of precision reduces the need for adjustments and remakes, leading to faster treatment times and more successful outcomes. The scanner’s advanced imaging technology captures even the smallest details, allowing for a level of accuracy that is difficult to achieve with traditional methods.
3. Faster Turnaround Times
Digital impressions taken with the TRIOS 5 can be processed and sent to dental labs almost instantly, significantly reducing the time it takes to create dental restorations. This means that patients can receive their custom restorations, such as crowns or bridges, in a shorter period, minimizing the time spent waiting for treatment to be completed.
4. Improved Patient Communication
The TRIOS 5 scanner allows dentists to show patients real-time images of their teeth and gums, enhancing communication and understanding. This visual aid helps patients better understand their treatment options and the condition of their oral health, leading to more informed decisions about their dental care.
5. Environmentally Friendly
By eliminating the need for traditional impression materials, the TRIOS 5 digital scanner contributes to a more environmentally friendly dental practice. This reduction in waste is a positive step towards sustainability in dental care.
How TRIOS 5 Digital Scanning Works
The process of digital scanning with the TRIOS 5 at Matheson Dentistry & Implant Center is straightforward and efficient:
- Initial Consultation: During your initial consultation, Dr. Matheson will assess your dental needs and determine if digital scanning with the TRIOS 5 is the best option for your treatment plan.
- Preparation: If digital scanning is required, the teeth will be prepared as needed. This might involve cleaning the teeth or shaping them slightly to accommodate the dental restoration.
- Scanning Process: The TRIOS 5 scanner is used to capture a complete 3D image of your teeth and gums. The scanner is gently moved over the surface of your teeth, capturing thousands of images per second. These images are then compiled into a detailed digital impression.
- Review: Dr. Matheson will review the digital impression with you, explaining the next steps in your treatment. The digital scan can also be sent directly to a dental lab if a restoration is being fabricated.
- Follow-Up: Depending on your treatment plan, you may return for the placement of your dental restoration, such as a crown or bridge, or for further procedures that require the digital impression.
