// Intraoral Scanning System

Primescan® 2 Powered by DS Core
Powered by the company’s DS Core cloud platform, Primescan 2 is a cloud-native wireless intraoral scanner capable of scanning on any internet-connected mobile or desktop device— without needing a dedicated computer. The versatile and innovative intraoral scanner is designed to deliver improved workflow efficiency and extended treatment capabilities, and when compared to Primescan AC and Primescan Connect, the new scanner allows practices to expand the services they offer to patients and grow their business, according to the company. Additionally, improved communication and diagnostic tools help dental professionals deliver a high standard of care and comfort. Benefits to clinicians include hardware-independence, versatility, simple handling, fast workflow (a full arch scan can be taken in less than 1 minute while delivering optimal accuracy), ease of delegation, always up to date (DS Core always runs on the latest version), primary storage in the cloud, and reliable hygiene. Primescan 2 is based on the patented scanning technology of Primescan — combining the speed, accuracy, and ease of use of the company’s original scanner with new cloud-native capabilities made possible through direct integration with DS Core. As a cloud-native intraoral scanner, the device allows dental professionals to scan anytime, anywhere — including visits to hospitals, partner practices, or labs — using any laptop, computer, tablet, or other internet-connected device at hand. The scan data is automatically processed and stored on DS Core, meaning that patient consultations, lab ordering, and treatment ?planning can take place independently on any internet-connected device available. Additionally, the size and outer shape of the scanner tip have been redesigned with Primescan 2 making intraoral scanning more comfortable for patients — helping clinicians easily scan molars and hard-to-reach distal surfaces.

Expedition

Imaging company PreXion has announced the launch of its Expedition CBCT Scanner. The Expedition is designed to produce vivid, high-quality images utilizing its IGZO flat panel detector (FPD). IGZO is named for the indium, gallium, zinc, and oxide that are contained inside the FPD. The IGZO FPD is designed for enhanced power-savings, using more current and reducing scatter, according to PreXion. This higher quality image can improve diagnostics in the dental practice while reducing power consumption. Expedition maintains 4 fields of view, including 5x5cm, 8x8cm,12.5x10cm, and an optional 15x15cm, giving clinicians a wide range of imaging capabilities to suit their specific practice’s needs ranging from general diagnostics to endodontics to implants and more, per PreXion. The open-source platform is designed to be compatible with most DICOM merging software. It reportedly requires no graphics card updates to operate. Purchase of the Expedition also comes with a 10 year all-parts warranty.

Clear Cast Resin

3D printing company Formlabs has announced the launch of new workflow applications, including 2 new materials and new post-processing tools. These new products are designed specifically to make 3D printing workflows more efficient, according to a press release from Formlabs. Among these new applications is the Clear Cast Resin material, which is said to feature optimal thermal expansion. This thermal expansion is able to cut down on turnaround times, reducing cost and improving efficiency both in-office and in the lab. It is reportedly accurate within 0.25mm and is designed to improve iterating flexibility.

SLA and SLS Post-Processing Tools

Formlabs has also introduced new SLA and SLS post-processing tools. These include the non-flammable Formlabs Resin Washing Solution, which is said to clean while dissolving twice as much resin before becoming saturated in comparison to IPA. Also included is the Fuse Blast Polishing System which is said to clean and polish parts from the Fuse shift, giving an optimal surface finish to SLS printed parts. The last Post-Processing Tool is the Fuse Sift Glovebox Bundle which combines the Fuse Sift Glovebox Panel and Fuse Parts Carrier. The bundle aspect cuts down on powder exposure and is said to streamline operations.

V-Print c&b temp
VOCO has introduced V-Print c&b temp, a 3D print resin for creating highly esthetic long-term temporary restorations. The new material, like all V-Print resins, is sedimentation-free, eliminating the need for shaking or rolling before use, thus saving time for clinicians and lab techs. With a flexural strength of 132 MPa, V-Print c&b temp is formulated to ensure durable and stable temporary restorations. Its high filler rate provides wear resistance, allowing crowns and bridges to last up to 12 months, offering patients long-lasting solutions, according to VOCO. Additionally, V-Print c&b temp has low water absorption, making it resistant to discoloration and ensuring color stability. Its high luster polish and natural fluorescence are designed to deliver the esthetic look of a final restoration, and to meet high esthetic demands. Available in 6 shades (A1, A2, A3, A3.5, B1, and BL), V-Print c&b temp offers versatility and customization for dental professionals. As a composite material, it can be easily characterized or combined with a flowable restorative, allowing seamless integration into various clinical scenarios. This material is part of VOCO's growing V-Print line of 3D printer materials and is validated for use with high-quality 3D printers such as Ackuretta, Asiga, Microlay, Shining 3D, and more. In addition, it is compatible with design software from 3Shape and Exocad.
