Digital Impression Systems

Clinicians are leveraging their investments in chairside digital impression systems by partnering with digitally enabled laboratories to streamline their workflow and reduce the time and cost of treatment. We are able to accept digital impression files from:

• 3M True Definition
• 3Shape Trios
• Cadent iTero
• PlanMeca/Plan Scan
• Sirona Connect
• any open STL file

3M True Definition

For faster production, and more accurate results, 3M True Definition scan files can be sent to DPS for the design and fabrication of traditional restorations. True Definition Scanner users can contact 3M ESPE directly to add Dental Prosthetic Services to your list of “Favorite Labs.”

Cadent iTero

Minimize the need for chairside adjustments by taking digital impressions for your implant and restorative cases. iTero users can contact Align Technology directly to add Dental Prosthetic Services to your list of “Favorite Labs.”

Sirona Connect (CEREC)

To send a case for a traditional or implant restoration through Sirona Connect, follow the standard Sirona scan protocol. Select your restoration preferences, and send scans of the prepared teeth with adjacent teeth, buccal bite (using V4.0 software) and the opposing arch. For anterior cases, an additional scan of the preoperative condition or a scan with the temporary in place is recommended for the best correlation design.
