Finally – digital impression taking for Orthodontists By replacing manual methods with digital impression taking, orthodontists can reap a wide range of business benefits such as reduced chair time, increased patient com- fort, fewer retakes, and durable impres- sions. The digital format allows orthodon- tic clinics to reduce their storage costs and systematically access their case records. TRIOS Ortho’s integrated communication tools allow orthodontists to discuss cas- es and treatment plans in 3D with the lab and colleagues, easing cooperation and ul- timately achieving optimal results for the patient. Complete digital workflows with Ortho Analyzer™ Software 3Shape has bundled its user-acclaimed Or- tho Analyzer™ together with TRIOS® to give orthodontists a complete digital work- flow all the way to the lab. The scanned full-bite situation can be uploaded direct- ly into the Ortho Analyzer™ software run- ning on a server PC that is included with the TRIOS Ortho solution. Ortho Analyz- er™ makes it easy to create a digital study model, including a virtual base, and per- form treatment planning using 3D and 2D tools, virtual setups and digital articula- tors. The virtual model can then be opti- mized for digital appliance design in labs that use 3Shape Appliance Designer™ soft- ware and digital manufacturing machines. Digital database for impressions integrated in your clinic 3Shape TRIOS® Ortho also includes the Or- tho System TRIOS® Inbox software and the Ortho System™ database. The Ortho Sys- tem TRIOS Inbox facilitates efficient im- port of digital impressions from TRIOS® into the Ortho System™ database - which in turn can be made easily accessible from the clinic’s general practice management system for complete case integration in the clinic. 3Shape announces the official launch of its new TRIOS® Ortho solution 3Shape is a Danish company specializing in the development and marketing of 3D scan- ners and CAD/CAM software solutions de- signed for the creation, processing, analysis and management of high-quality 3D data for application in complex manufacturing pro- cesses. 3Shape envisions the age of the “full digital dental lab,” and its more than 140 de- velopers provide superior innovation pow- er toward reaching this goal. 3Shape’s flex- ible solutions empower dental professionals through automation of real workflows, and its systems are applied in thousands of labs in more than 70 countries worldwide, put- ting 3Shape technologies at the peak of the market in relation to units produced per day by dental technicians.
