Discover more at carestreamdental.com The waiT is over Restoration is becoming Easier and Affordable for all Dental Practices ByNorbertoVelázquez,DDS C S Solutions is the title name for the new CAD CAM system from Carestream Dental thatwaslaunchedintheMiddle East at AEEDC last February. The system consists of an intra- oral scanner, CBCT impression scanning system, restoration design software, and chair side milling machine. All of the parts are separate creating an open Web-based system that enables dentists to use the com- plete product family or choose any of the products as a stand- alone unit. The benefit that this offers is an easy sharing of res- toration cases between dentists and laboratories. The important thing about any system is not having to be tied into using every individual product, software or consum- able that is incorporated in that system. Although this may be beneficial if you feel there is security in working with one single supplier you may on the other hand prefer the features of another supplier’s product that you want to use instead of the one that is provided. At Carestream Dental we have seen many Dentists choose the CS 3500 Scanner to capture im- ages for their digital restoration work. They have preferred the elegant slim and easy to use design of the scanner which makes it simpler and more re- liable to capture detailed scans of the patient’s teeth that can then be e-mailed to their labo- ratory for completion. The CS 3500 scans patients’ teeth directly to acquire true colour, 2D and 3D images. With an average precision of 30 µm, the CS 3500 scans to a depth ranging from -2 to +13 mm and offers high-angulation scanning of up to 45 degrees. It features a light guidance sys- tem that enables dental profes- sionals to focus more on pa- tients’ mouths while capturing data by limiting the time practi- tioners need to watch a monitor during scans. The CS 3500 also has an internal heater that pre- vents the mirror from fogging during digital impression ac- quisitions. To further stream- line the scanning process, the scanner does not require a trol- ley or the use of powder, saving practitioners time and making the experience more pleasant for patients. Here is what Leading dentists have had to say about their ex- periencing using the CS 3500. Dr. Carsten Stockleben Hannover, Germany http://www.stockleben.com/ “With the CS 3500, it’s easy. You just say ‘I want my scanner,’ put it in, and start. It’s small, it’s light, it can be connected to any computer via USB, so I don’t have to have a big trolley with a computer and a monitor that have to be driven around the operatories. You don’t need powder, you don’t have to mess around in the patient’s mouth, keep it dry, put the powder in, and so on. It makes it much easier. It’s got a guiding system and that allows me to concen- trate and to take the impression or the scan in the mouth, and that’s fantastic.” Dr. Dan Delrose North Rive Dental Ellenton, FL, USA www.northriverdental.com “By using the CS 3500 intraoral scanner, we eliminate many of the problems that come with using impression materials and pouring casts—all you have to do is scan the tooth and send the data to your restoration software or the lab. But prob- ably the most important feature of the whole scanner is some- thing so simple—that it’s not connected to a trolley. It’s not connected to a tower or a work- station. You’re going to be able to take this light, ergonomic scanner and plug it right into your workstation in the opera- tory, quickly and easily.” Digital restoration and all the benefits it can bring to every- day dentistry, is now available for all dentists to use. The next step is to learn about the tech- nology and to visit the exhibi- tions and congresses where you can see what is on offer. Carestream Dental will be ex- hibiting in Dubai at: • CAD/CAM & Digital Dentist- ry International Conference on 9-10 May 2014 • Dental Facial & Cosmetic International Conference on 14–15 November 2014 • AEEDC 17-19 February 2015 But if you need to talk to some- one now then please do not hes- itate to contact me on: Ernesto.jaconelli@carestream. com
