Digital Imaging | Trios Intraoral Scanner

Precision and Comfort in Digital Care at San Francisco Bay Periodontics

At SF Bay Periodontics, we use the latest dental technology to make your care efficient and comfortable. The Trios intraoral scanner is one way we use technology to improve your experience.

What is an Intraoral Scanner?

An intraoral scanner is a handheld device that creates high-resolution 3D images of the inside of your mouth. Instead of using bulky trays and messy putty to take a physical mold, we use a small wand with a camera in the tip to capture thousands of frames per second. These images are instantly processed into a highly accurate 3D model of the inside of your mouth. These images are used to create digital impressions that are far more detailed than traditional dental putty casts.

Benefits of the Trios Intraoral Scanner

• Precision – The Trios scanner captures incredible detail. It creates a precise digital map of your teeth and gums, allowing us to accurately document your periodontal health. This accuracy helps us monitor your oral health better and spot subtle changes that older technology might miss.
• Efficiency – Because the images are digital, they are available for review immediately. This streamlines the consultation process and allows us to share files with our laboratory instantly. Whether we are coordinating complex care or simple restorations, the digital workflow creates a smoother treatment experience from start to finish.
• Enhanced Comfort – Traditional impressions can be uncomfortable or trigger a gag reflex for many patients. The Trios scanner eliminates the need for unpleasant impression materials. The wand moves quickly and easily over the teeth and gums, making the process fast, clean, and stress-free.

How We Use the Trios Intraoral Scanner at SF Bay Periodontics

Our practice uses the Trios scanner to elevate every stage of your periodontal and restorative care. One of its most vital roles is in implant planning. Using digital scans, we can visualize the exact placement of a dental implant before the procedure even begins.

This digital data is also essential for the fabrication of surgical guides. These custom-made guides serve as a roadmap for extreme accuracy during surgery. By using these tools, we make certain that every treatment is tailored to your specific anatomy, leading to predictable results and a more efficient recovery.
