Hudson Orthodontics is proud to offer 3Shape TRIOS® digital impressions to our patients.
For patients who are candidates for Invisalign aligners, an accurate impression is essential for effective treatment planning and care. The accuracy and detail of the TRIOS scan is impeccable.
This scanner captures the contours of the tooth and gingival structures, producing an accurate digital orthodontic scan in minutes. This non-invasive procedure is ideal for patient comfort. No unpleasant putty material traditionally associated with taking impressions for your first visit!
How TRIOS Works
The TRIOS handheld wand takes a digital, 3D image of your prepared teeth, stopping as needed. The wand is non-invasive and you can breathe and swallow as needed during the procedure. If you need to move or adjust, you can do so – the accuracy of the handheld wand is first-rate. Needing to “re-do” impressions is rare. Plus, you can look at the 3D image on the screen in real-time as the orthodontist moves the wand!
Benefits of Teeth Scanning
*Alternative to Alginate Impression: Putty-like impressions used to be normal for taking orthodontic records. The iTero system eliminates the goop and unpleasant aftertaste of traditional impressions.
*Superior Accuracy – Impressions are many times more accurate with no distortion from patient movement during setting, removal, or disinfection.
*Onscreen Visualization – Real-time digital viewing capabilities allow for immediate adjustment to create the ideal orthodontic scan the first time.
*Single Use Imaging Shield – The process is built to ensure maximum cleanliness.
