I never felt so good afterward. I’m going to find a T-Scan dentist in Philadelphia, because I’m tired of losing good teeth due to traditional occlusal indicators.” Patients can visualise their occlusal disorders on-screen to help them understand the need for treatment. Dentists use the data to pinpoint bite issues and non-visible indicators that could be contributing to symptoms. T-Scan Novus has been under development for some time and over 17 clinicians were part of the initial beta test. The new system was released in Sep- tember, sparking interest among existing users and prospective customers alike. “T-Scan Novus is the biggest release this product has seen in over a decade,” said Sarah Hutchinson, ProjectManagerfortheTekscanDentalDivision.“The recent software upgrades bridge the gap between digitalrenderingsandmeasuredocclusalforce,while the hardware has been redesigned to reflect the style and functionality of modern dental hardware you’d see in labs or operatories.
