A light source from the scanner is projected onto the scan objects, such as full dental arches, and then a 3D model processed by the scanning software will be displayed in real-time on a touch screen.
Intraoral scanners have many advantages, including efficiency and fast results, lowered discomfort for patients, and better patient education as the results can be explained in real-time.
