How Intraoral Scanners Are Changing the Game in Dental Diagnostics

Dentistry has evolved quite a bit over the years. New technology allows dentists to better serve our dental needs. An exciting addition to the world of dentistry is the intraoral scanner. This tiny handheld device is transforming the way dentists examine our teeth. It shaves time off and makes it easier to check our teeth for health.

The Rise of Intraoral Scanners

In the past, dentists had to take messy and uncomfortable molds of our teeth to create shapes. These molds could take a long time to form and were also often not correct, so dentists would have to redo them. Well, everything has changed with interoral scanners. These small devices are able to take clear pictures of our teeth in a matter of minutes. This means dentists can create 3D models of our mouths without making a mess or using anything uncomfortable.

Improving Dental Diagnosis with Intraoral Scanners

Not only do they make intraoral scanners much more comfortable, but they also enable dentists to make better diagnoses and treatment plans. Dentists, because they can build detailed 3D models of our physical teeth, can identify issues sooner than they may have been able to. That means that conditions can be addressed earlier, which is in the best interests of patients. And because intraoral scans are digital, dentists can share information with other healthcare workers more easily so care can be better and faster.

Transforming Dental Care with Intraoral Scanners

In general, intraoral scanners are revolutionizing the delivery of dental care. All of which ultimately assists dentists in examining our teeth more easily as well as with greater precision — and thus improving outcomes for patients. Traditional molds are a thing of the past with intraoral scanners. Instead, rapid and precise digital scans make visits to the dentist more pleasant for anyone. The beauty of the technology of intraoral scanners makes the future of dental checking a reality.

Exciting developments in the world of intraoral scanning are making dentistry better, and we dare say this trend is here to stay as technology and intraoral scanners will improve going forward. With these devices in the arsenal, dentists are able to provide better care, leading to healthier smiles and happier lives.
