The Impression Scan function helps enhance intraoral scan data by substituting intraoral data with impression data. For example, capturing margins, post areas for Post & Core cases, and other areas that are challenging to fully scan with intraoral scanning alone.
How to scan margins with Impression Scan?
STEP 1: Collect oral data
Scan oral environment normally. Here, we took a physical model as an example.
STEP 2: Scan the impression
Click the “impression scan” button. Here, we trimmed the margins to simulate the areas with insufficient data. Click the “confirm” button.
Scan the impression for the margin area, and the impression data will automatically align with intraoral data, filling in missing data.
How to scan post areas for Post & Core cases?
STEP 1: Collect oral data
Scan oral environment normally. Here, we took a physical model as an example.
STEP 2: Trim data
Remove post area data before scanning the impression by an edition tool, and click “confirm” button to confirm changes.
STEP 3: Scan the impression
Click the “impression scan” button to scan the post areas of the impression. Combine it with the oral data and generate an intact oral model.
