At the forefront of digital technology for over a decade, 3Shape continues to improve its TRIOS technology by making scanning easier and faster than ever before.
From “The best scanner I have used” to “It exceeded my expectations” to “Patients LOVE it,” doctors were far from tongue tied when asked to share their experiences with TRIOS intraoral scanning. A DPS Best Product thanks to a variety of high-scoring criteria—including ease of use, speed, and scan quality—TRIOS is on a mission to make life easier for practitioners and their patients.
Packed with intuitive software modules, TRIOS elevates the patient experience and creates a visual prompt when educating patients about dental issues. “It makes treatment discussions easier and illustrates treatment needs for patients,” said Miriam Carmean, DDS. “Patient perception is everything—and they love seeing this product at work.”
The latest iteration of the scanner is TRIOS 5, designed for an effortless scanning experience, next-level ergonomics, and improved hygiene. Here, we explore 3 of the most game-changing improvements built into the TRIOS 5:
3Shape’s smallest and lightest scanner to date, TRIOS 5 is 20% smaller and 30% lighter than TRIOS 4 and weighs just 10.6 ounces.
With a sleek, pen-grip design, it houses an improved battery that scan up to 33 patients on a single charge, while simple 2-button operation makes it easy to capture a digital scan quickly and accurately.
An all-new ScanAssist engine in the TRIOS 5 uses intelligent-alignment technology to ensure precise scanning, regardless of each user's scanning method.
“This new scanner is completely independent of how you move it inside of the mouth—to the point where new users need minimal instructions to begin scanning and do not need to be highly trained,” noted Dr. Rune Fisker, SVP for Product Strategy at 3Shape. “It defines an entirely new level of scanning.”
In compliance with the FDA’s most recent hygiene requirements for dental devices, TRIOS 5 sets a new standard in patient protection.
With the near absence of openings or crevices, TRIOS 5 is easy to clean, while ultra-thin, snug, and virtually invisible sleeves designed for single use minimize the risk of cross-contamination.
The scan tip and mirror also have been redesigned to be closed and autoclavable, which further reduces the risk of infection.
TRIOS Share technology allows practices to easily move between operatories with one TRIOS wireless scanner by simply mirroring the scanning software to any PC in the practice.
Because TRIOS Share runs over a practice’s existing Wi-Fi network, it does not require practices to purchase additional 3Shape licenses. This makes it easy for dental team members to scan every patient from any room.
