Trios 5 Scanner

Modern dental technology brings an innovative way of planning and providing detail-oriented care to dental patients. Our dental office uses state-of-the-art technology for patient education and extensive treatment planning. High-quality dental technology ensures that we can efficiently yet accurately take impressions and educate patients about their treatment options. Dr. Andrew Nguyen uses the Trios 5 Scanner from 3Shape to treat patients in his Sunnyvale, CA office. This wireless dental scanner takes accurate images of the smile and displays them on a monitor, so Dr. Nguyen can explain to patients what dental treatment can do for their smiles.

Small and Light Design

The Trios 5 is much lighter than other scanners, which means we can easily hold and maneuver the scanner around the mouth.

Hygenic Treatment

This scanner is simple to clean and contains an FDA-approved, sterilized tip with a microbial barrier. We also use a single-use body sleeve during scanning to prevent cross-contamination.

Minimally Invasive Care

The Trios 5 intraoral scanner does not require messy putty and is much more comfortable than traditional impressions. It can only take five minutes to make a complete scan.

Accurate Dental Impressions

We take detailed, three-dimensional images of the teeth and gums that we can see on a computer screen. Our team can also re-scan portions of the smile to create the most complete picture possible.

TREATMENT WITH THE TRIOS 5 SCANNER

When we use the Trios 5, we gently move the scanner over the teeth and gums. The scanner is wirelessly connected to a computer, which captures a 3-dimensional image of the teeth and gums. Using haptic feedback, we follow the contours of the smile and thoroughly scan the smile to create a complete, precise 3D model. Haptic feedback creates a vibration to give feedback, so we don’t have to refocus our attention from the screen to the scanner constantly.

Using the digital model from our complete scan, we can see a variety of dental problems, from malocclusion to missing teeth. The Trios 5 Scanner is a valuable tool for planning Invisalign treatment and implant-supported restorations like dental crowns, dental bridges, and dentures. Intraoral scanners like the Trios 5 are also valuable because they show patients the emergence of problems like gum disease or TMJ problems.
