A digital scanner is a cutting-edge dental tool that utilizes advanced technology to capture precise, three-dimensional images of teeth and oral structures. Unlike traditional impression methods, which involve the use of physical molds, digital scanners employ a handheld device to scan the patient's mouth, creating detailed digital images. This innovative technology offers numerous advantages over traditional methods, including increased accuracy, reduced patient discomfort, and faster treatment planning.
