1. Pre-Scan Preparation

• If this is the first time you are scanning a BellaTek Encode Healing Abutment, please call 3M ESPE Customer Care to activate the workflow at 1-800-634-2249. Then, sync labs by selecting Home > Management > Lab > Sync All.

• When entering patient information, use only patient initials for data privacy protection. BIOMET 3i will not accept full patient names.

• Ensure the BellaTek Encode Healing Abutment is fully seated on the implant with a radiograph. The Healing Abutment must be at least 1mm supragingival for the information to be captured correctly.

2. Use Appropriate Amount of Powder

• Sufficient powder is essential for data capture. The reflective surface of the BellaTek Encode Healing Abutment distal and mesial areas must be covered in order to prevent an incomplete scan.

• Verify that the surface features and the screw head is not obscured.

3. Scanning Workflow

• Begin the scan on the occlusal side of the adjacent tooth to the BellaTek Encode Healing Abutment and continue scanning the healing abutment and contact walls of the adjacent teeth, making sure to capture complete scan data.

• Review the image(s) to ensure the BellaTek Encode Healing Abutment and contacts are completely captured.

• Scan the remainder of the operative quad/arch, the opposing arch and bite. As with the typical workflow, review implant images in high resolution. Select the correlating tooth number to the position of the BellaTek Encode placement. Save successfully scanned implants by selecting the green check.

4. Enter the Prescription

• Select the Rx tab on the scan screen to display the prescription screen.

• Request a delivery date.

• Select the desired Restorative Lab.

• Verify that the system has the correct dentist assigned to the case.
