The award-winning 3Shape TRIOS intraoral scanner and its supporting software have gotten significant updates. Besides improvements to functionality in the scanner, there are now specific scan workflows for dentures and many more exciting enhancements.
Wired and wireless in one
The 3Shape TRIOS 4 IO scanner now comes with a smart cord so you can plug in the wireless scanner if you're concerned with your battery running low.
2-in-1 simultaneous scanning
TRIOS 4 now includes 2-in-1 simultaneous scanning. So, when you take a 3D colour scan, you can, at the same time, use the fluorescent light scan to detect bacteria concentration and surface caries.
Denture scanning workflow
There are now 3 options for scanning denture patients so you can choose the scan type most relevant to your case.
When you choose the denture workflow, you now have the option to:
- Intraoral scan the patient;
- Scan the actual denture (using copy denture workflow); or
- Scan the analogue impression of the edentulous patient.
Easier edentulous cases
The workflow for edentulous "bite scanning", whether it be 3D bite plates, wax rims or more, is now easier. There is now an option to choose from "Centric tray bite scanning" and the "normal bite scanning" in the Denture workflow.
Better usability
Now when you scan with TRIOS, you will experience a more visual approach that can help improve your scanning. Tutorials provide step-by-step guides and "hints" will highlight features to improve your workflow. Lastly, as an option when exporting your scan, you can choose PLY exports to send a combined 3D format that includes colour (STL files do not include colour or texture).
Personalised order forms
Dental laboratories can now customise the TRIOS order form to only show and promote the services and materials the your laboratory provides. Using the order form "Editor", you can now easily personalise the form and upload it to 3Shape Communicate.
