Intraoral scanners are devices used to capture direct optical impressions in dentistry using a small camera inside the mouth. They create accurate impressions of teeth and crown preparations without the use of traditional impression material. For patients with a sensitive gag reflex or dental anxiety, digital impressions are much more tolerable than traditional impression material. Digital impressions can be used for custom night guards, crowns, bridges, partial dentures, complete dentures and clear aligner therapy.
