3Shape’s TRIOS® Color digital impression solution now features Teeth Shade Measurement, HD photo capabilities

At Chicago Midwinter 2014, 3Shape unveiled to the market its latest innovations in the TRIOS® Color digital impression taking solution, which includes Automatic Shade Measurement during scanning, HD photo capabilities and more.

As the dentist scans, the new TRIOS® Color automatically matches the various shades, and stores all the shade values together with the digital impression. Dentists can thereby omit the extra manual step that comes with visual shade taking using shade guides.

The dentist has the option to evaluate and highlight relevant areas for the lab, and the complete shade information is sent to the lab together with the impression.

Another new feature allows dentists to take high definition photos as they scan. The HD Photos add extraordinary detail levels and make it easier to place the margin line, while additionally providing images for case documentation and communication with patients. The accumulated HD photos are automatically packaged and sent along with the digital impression.

According to 3Shape, with its latest innovations, the TRIOS® solution has become a multifunctional digital solution for dentists that create 3D digital impressions, measures color shades of teeth, and takes intraoral HD photos - all in a single device. The combined case information can be effectively utilized by the dental technicians, and help them design and manufacture restorations of optimal quality.

The new 3Shape TRIOS® additionally presents support for implant bridges and removable partials, enhanced colors, improved detail capture, a new slim Cart design with a multi-touch screen, and a chair integration kit.
