The 3Shape Trios Intraoral Scanner represents a significant advancement in dental technology, replacing traditional impression techniques with state-of-the-art laser scanning. This compact, handheld device, similar in size to an electric toothbrush, captures precise digital impressions of the entire oral cavity in just minutes. Its real-time display enables both patient and clinician to view the scan as it is performed, minimising the need for adjustments in restorative procedures such as crowns, bridges, and dentures.
In addition to streamlining the impression process, the Trios scanner enhances diagnostic accuracy. Its detailed imaging capabilities provide a comprehensive view of the oral anatomy, allowing for early detection of issues such as tooth decay and structural wear, particularly in hard-to-reach areas. This innovation is a valuable tool in both preventative care and treatment planning.

Our practice is proud to be among the select few offering Cone Beam CT 3D imaging, a cutting-edge tool that elevates dental diagnostics and treatment planning. This advanced scanner provides a highly detailed, 3D image of the lower half of the skull, enabling precise implant placement and eliminating the guesswork from complex procedures. The superior accuracy of Cone Beam imaging also enhances the diagnosis of various dental conditions, ensuring that treatment plans are tailored with the highest level of precision and care.
Cone Beam CT 3D imaging represents the gold standard in modern dentistry, particularly for implant planning and surgical procedures. By utilising digital 3D planning, we can closely monitor treatment outcomes and deliver improved results with greater confidence. For patients, this means fewer complications, better long-term outcomes, and a more personalized treatment experience. Our commitment to offering the latest technological advancements reflects our dedication to providing the highest quality of care.
