New Innovations from Carestream Dental Enhance Workflow in the OMS Practice

The implant-borne restorative workflow of the CS 3600 is designed specifically for handling implant scanning, supported abutments and scan bodies. A dual scan mode allows the user to scan the same implant region of interest twice —once with the scan body in place and one without—to capture more precise data. Also, the scanner’s software allows for split-screen viewing for side-by-side comparison of the digital impressions with and without the scan bodies/abutments in place.“The CS 3600’s implant workflow makes it easier than ever for oral and maxillofacial surgeons to adopt an intraoral scanner into their practice,” Gary Salman, U.S. director of oral and maxillofacial surgery, Carestream Dental, said. “The scanner allows for easy custom healing abutments, surgical guides and orthognathic digital models, so oral surgeons can perform faster, more accurate treatment.” The CS 3600 also features high-speed continuous scanning to significantly reduce the time it takes to acquire a digital impression. Unsteady hands or fidgeting patients have no impact on successive views; users simply continue to scan in a smooth motion. Continuous scanning contributes to faster, easier dual arch acquisition and, ultimately, more ...
