Intraoral Scanning and Inspection Systems Locate Any Abnormalities in Inner Ear, Oral Cavity, Teeth, and Jawbone

 

Intraoral Scanning and Inspection System

Intraoral scanning and inspection systems are used in diagnostic procedure of the dental and oral cavity. They are used to locate any abnormalities in the inner ear, oral cavity, teeth and jawbone. The system uses light waves that are able to penetrate any type of material that is in front of it. Intraoral scanning is usually used for preoperative imaging as well as dental imaging. It has many potential applications, such as the detection of the common conditions such as cavities and infections.

Intraoral scanners are in high demand in European countries such as the U.K., Germany, and Switzerland, which has prompted manufacturers to expand their presence in the region. In December 2020, Medit, a South Korea-based manufacturer of intraoral scanning and inspection systems, partnered with Straumann Group, a Switzerland-based provider of tooth replacement and orthodontic solutions, for the distribution of its intraoral scanners. North America, on the other hand is witnessing approval and launch of new products. In March 2020, Align Technology, Inc., a medical device company, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval for its iTero Element 5D Imaging System for commercial availability in the U.S. Moreover, initiatives to boost digital transformation in the dental sector is also expected to boost demand for intraoral scanners in the country. In January 2021, Aspen Dental Management, Inc., a healthcare business support organization in the U.S., partnered with 3Shape, a manufacturer of dental scanning solutions, to provide 3Shape hardware, software, and service solutions, TRIOS 4 intraoral scanner, and other transformative technologies to patients and practitioners across 900 Aspen Dental locations in the country.

Adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in intraoral scanning and inspection systems is expected to boost their efficacy. In March 2021, Intelliscan, a dental scanning solutions provider, launched INTELLISCAN 3D, an open-source intraoral scanner.
