Why Go Digital? Our director Graham Littlejohn, shares his expert opinion on the new wave

of digital dentistry.

I have been working with digital

scanners for almost 20 years and I have always been excited about what the future could bring. The main obstacle has always been that companies creating digital systems tend to forget that these are a tool for making restorations, selling them into the market without a solid list of indications and workflows. This will not give the desired outcome. Only a few have mastered the workflow that changes an oral scanner into an essential piece of equipment for a dental practice. There is a huge lack of good quality advice and education to ensure they deliver to their full potential in a dental practice. With the launch of the TRIOS®3, from world leaders 3Shape, we have a game changer. The scanner is easy to use. It is also full colour, with an HD camera and a shade taking device. With full arch scanning speeds of around 20-30 seconds, it knocks everything else out of the park. Add a knowledgeable laboratory to the existing advantages of most oral scanners (accuracy, constancy, patient acceptance) and I believe 3shape have developed the very first everyday use oral scanner for Crown & Bridge, Orthodontics, Implants and soon Prosthetics. Its not just the scanner that makes the time right: the modern materials available make CAD/CAM restorations more aesthetic, stronger, more consistent and, in some cases, cheaper than traditional dentistry. DTS, Core3dcentres, Core3daCADemy and Cordent are proud to be the UK specialists in this exciting new future.

The 3Shape TRIOS®3 is an intraoral scanner for fast and easy 3D colour impression.
