The <a title=\"3shapescanner\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=vm4f0n4qUDU\">3Shape Digital Impression Scanner<\/a>. Not many things surprise me in dentistry anymore but the technology of\u00a0 3Shape scanner is simply amazing!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 How the scanner works is that when a dentist prepares a tooth for a crown (including veneers, onlays, implant crowns and many other dental restorations) a small camera is placed in the mouth and the scanner begins to take hundreds of color pictures of your teeth and gums.\u00a0 Once the dentist is satisfied that the scanner has captured all the information the scanner sends the 3D images to the lab by email. The scanner is in the mouth, taking its pictures, for about 45 seconds three times.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The advantages of the 3Shape scanner for patients are quick and comfortable impressions, high quality restoration fits and minimal grinding, reduced number of appointments due to fewer retakes, reduced overall chair time and most importantly a great patient experience.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0\u00a0Follow\u00a0my\u00a0Blog\u00a0as I will continue to\u00a0share more information\u00a0about modern dental advances which are leading to better accuracy and a much improved patient experience in the dental chair.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 One of the biggest complaints I hear from my patients is that the materials dentists use to take impressions for crowns, veneers and bridges is extremely unpleasant.\u00a0 The impression material when it is placed in a patient\u2019s mouth typically runs down the back of the throat causing patients to gag and usually tastes awful.\u00a0 [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15,14,26,4,1],"tags":[75,77,76],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Say Goodbye to Gooey Dental Impressions - Dr. Kenneth J.
