3D Scanner

Only Orthodontics are proud to join the digital revolution. We have invested in a 3Shape Trios 3D intra-oral digital scanner. The scanner is used to produce accurate 3D images of the teeth, to be used in several ways: 

• Before and after records, at the start and end of treatment, replacing the traditional unpopular alginate impressions.
• Scans can be sent to Invisalign or Incognito to manufacture the appliances, replacing the traditional Silicone impressions and providing a much more pleasant experience for the patient. 
• The scans are also sent to the supporting laboratories to fabricate our removable orthodontic appliances. 
• The scans can be used for analysis and as an accurate treatment planning and audit tool. 

The scanner is purely a photographic imaging tool and does not use any radiation.
