3D Oral Scanners

A 3D oral scanner is a small handheld wand that captures thousands of images as it moves over the teeth and stitches them into a detailed digital model. The scan appears on screen as it is taken, so you can see your own teeth from every angle.

Why it helps

More comfortable — no impression trays or putty to hold in your mouth.
Accurate records — precise models for planning aligners, appliances and retainers.
Quick to share — digital files go straight to planning and fabrication.

Where it is used

Scans support treatment planning, clear aligner and retainer fabrication, and progress checks, and they sit alongside our other imaging to give a full picture of your bite.
