An intraoral scanner is a handheld device used to directly create digital impression data of the oral cavity. Light source from the scanner is projected onto the scan objects, such as full dental arches, and then a 3D model processed by the scanning software will be displayed in real-time on a touch screen. The device provides accurate details of the hard and soft tissues located in the oral area through high-quality images.

It is becoming a more popular choice for clinics and dentists due to short lab turnaround times and excellent 3D image outputs.
