At Specialized Dental Clinic Bushkalova (Megadent § MDC Aesthetics) We have a Virtuo Vivo intraoral scanner from Straumann. This is one of the leading companies worldwide when it comes to implants and digital dental equipment.
The advantages of using an intraoral scanner include a fast and accurate process of creating 3D images, there is no need to create the more inaccurate plaster models. The production of dental structures is much faster and more precise with these modern digital technologies. In addition, the use of an intraoral scanner can reduce the stress and discomfort of the patient caused by traditional dental impression taking techniques.
The main advantages of this device are:
Precision – high-quality scanning of the teeth and oral cavity and creation of a 3D model in real time.
Speed – easier and faster image construction compared to traditional methods and most intraoral scanners on the market.
Comfort – It does not require the use of powder and completely replaces conventional impressions. The device is lightweight and small in size, making it convenient for the dentist to use and more comfortable for the patient.
Flexibility – Digital impressions can be shared with a dental laboratory very easily and quickly, and this speeds up the process of making the constructions.
High resolution – Teeth and soft tissues can be scanned from multiple angles simultaneously with high resolution and excellent quality. Even the most difficult to reach areas can be captured with this device.
Hygiene – The intraoral scanner has removable tips that are thoroughly cleaned after each patient examination. This ensures excellent hygiene during work.
An intraoral scanner is a dental equipment used to create three-dimensional 3D images of teeth and surrounding tissues. It is used as a replacement for traditional methods of taking dental impressions with silicone and plaster models and allows the dentist to very quickly and accurately assess the condition of the teeth and tissues.
The intraoral scanner Straumann Virtuo Vivo consists of a pen that contains a camera and optical sensors and a computer that processes the data and creates 3D images. Using an intraoral scanner, the dentist can create a high-quality digital model of the teeth and oral cavity, which is then used to create individual dentures, crowns, bridges and other dental structures.
The clinic has dental laboratory, so in our case the intraoral scanner transfers the images directly to the dental laboratory "Total Megadent". The resulting images are used to print a situational model using a 3D printer. The design of the structures can be made directly on the digital impression. Thanks to the accuracy of digital technologies, the final product – crowns, dentures and bridges – are much more precise and fit better when placed on the patient.
