Gone are the days of messy, uncomfortable dental impressions. With the advent of digital intraoral scanners, patients can now enjoy a more comfortable and efficient dental experience. In this blog post, we’ll discuss the advantages of digital intraoral scanners for patients.
No More Messy Impressions
One of the biggest advantages of digital intraoral scanners is that they eliminate the need for messy dental impressions. With traditional impressions, patients have to bite down on a tray filled with a gooey material that can be uncomfortable and messy. Digital scanners use a small wand to take a digital impression of your teeth, which is much more comfortable and less invasive.
Faster and More Accurate Results
Digital intraoral scanners also provide faster and more accurate results. Traditional impressions can take several minutes to complete and may require multiple attempts to get a good impression. With digital scanners, the process is much faster and more efficient, allowing your dentist to get an accurate impression on the first try.
Better Patient Communication
Digital intraoral scanners also provide better patient communication. With traditional impressions, it can be difficult for patients to understand what their dentist is seeing. With digital scanners, patients can see a digital image of their teeth in real-time, allowing them to better understand their dental health and treatment options.
More Comfortable Dental Experience
In addition to being faster and more accurate, digital intraoral scanners also provide a more comfortable dental experience. Patients no longer have to endure the discomfort of traditional impressions, which can make the dental experience more enjoyable and less stressful.
Environmentally Friendly
Finally, digital intraoral scanners are environmentally friendly. Traditional impressions require the use of disposable materials, which can be wasteful and harmful to the environment. Digital scanners are reusable and do not produce any waste, making them a more sustainable option for dental impressions.
In conclusion, digital intraoral scanners are the future of dental impressions. They offer a more comfortable and efficient dental experience, with faster and more accurate results, better patient communication, and a reduced environmental impact.
