Buyer’s Guide to Choosing the Best Intraoral Scanners
Digital scanning has changed dentistry. Intraoral scanners have replaced traditional impressions with high-resolution digital models. This not only makes treatment more accurate but also makes the patient experience more comfortable. However, this transition presents a new question for dental professionals: With so many options available, how do you choose the right scanner for your practice?
Dr. Balanoff’s Take
Before purchasing new equipment, consider its ease of cleaning, maintenance, and the training needed for your staff. A machine that is difficult to sanitize can slow down your practice and pose a safety risk, while complicated maintenance can lead to costly downtime. I would also consider the training required to get the machine operational in the office. Do you have to pay to be trained? A digital scanner is a great investment, but especially if you pick the best one for your practice!
