Understanding Traditional Dental Impression

The traditional dental impression process involves creating molds of the teeth, gums, and surrounding oral structures. Dentists apply a tray filled with a thick paste, often called “pink goop,” into the patient’s mouth to create a negative imprint. This paste hardens in the mouth, capturing their dental anatomy. Dentists then use this mold to produce a physical model for further treatment planning. Though effective, this method has its drawbacks, including patient discomfort and the potential for errors in the impressions due to the manual nature of the process.

What is a TRIOS Digital Scanner?

At its core, the TRIOS scanner is a sophisticated digital device that captures detailed 3D images of a patient’s mouth. This scanner employs advanced imaging technology to scan a patient’s oral cavity, producing a digital replica in a fraction of the time. A light source is projected onto the teeth and gums, capturing thousands of images per second. These are then compiled into an accurate 3D model by sophisticated software algorithms. 

The Role of the TRIOS Scanner in Modern Dentistry

By providing high-definition, real-time images, dental professionals can detect subtle issues that may not be apparent with conventional techniques. This leads to a more proactive approach to dental care, enabling dentists to tackle problems in their early stages with precision.

From a patient’s perspective, the benefits of the TRIOS scanner are immediately apparent. Patients experience less discomfort during the scanning process, a clear understanding of their dental health through visual aids, and the benefit of quick treatment turnarounds. This transformation caters to modern patients’ needs for convenience and efficiency in healthcare delivery.

Benefits of Digital Versus Traditional Methods

The advantages of the TRIOS scanner over traditional mold-based impressions are numerous and significant. Digital impressions are:

  • Accurate and Reliable: Traditional molds allow for imperfections or human error. Scans ensure dental restorations, like a dental crown or bridge, fit more precisely.
  • Faster: Waiting for physical molds to return from the dental lab could add days or even weeks to treatment timelines. Digital dental impressions are available within seconds.
  • Comfortable: Many patients have found taking traditional impressions to be uncomfortable and sometimes gag-inducing. The scanner presents a gag-free alternative that makes even lengthy dental appointments more tolerable for patients.
