My office just got a scanner and we had a difficult time to capture the inter-proximal spaces where the prep was. Thank you for your review , it is very helpful.
Hi Varun, I am also Prosthodontist similar like you from mumbai. I wanted to buy the scanner but was not sure about the reason behind it.Many different company salesman are visiting clinic every now and then. That made me so confused. It was quite detailed and unbiased intraoral scanner video. You articulated it really well. Thanks for taking so much effort to make this video.
Excellent presentation Dr Varun especially your comment on trying to circumvent learning how to make good analog impressions by using a scanner. My experience with scanners is very limited, but I'm sure that we need to know both methods of impressions ie analog and digital for the next 5 years at least as you have mentioned.
Thanks for you honesty.... Great video.... I hope you do this again for scanners in 2024 so i would know if its that time for me to switch to scanners or not
“I hope I have confused you enough” /s Also (Paraphrasing) “The scanner forces you to be a better dentist” This is the person I want to listen closely to what they say. Such honesty is not often found Thank you and please make more videos.
Thanks for the information but I'm not totally agree with many of your scaneers limitation...I use for the last 10 years..and there are so many tips to help to take good digital impression...we do all upper and lower reconstruction with scaners..I will suggest to doctors, listen other videos tips too...but I am really appreciate this video..that help to get more ideas and opinion...
Super sir Sir please tell me about the life of a scanner in a regular use , for example if we take RVG sensor, it’s life is 10-12 years, like that what is the life a scanner ? will Trios 3 work more years than shining 3d? I’m interested in trios 3 or shining 3d , which one do u prefer sir
I've had a trios 3. First one was wireless (2017), after a while connection issues. Under warranty got a wired one. After a few years cable had a loose connection. Got the scanner replaced just under warranty, otherwise a new cable install would have costed 1700 euro without VAT. Now the laptop is broken, and needs to be replaced (2400 - 3000 Euro). Don't forget license fees. Trios 1800 a year in my case. Updates and new installs needed to be done with TeamViewer. Now bought a Medit i700 without license cost. Easy install, and any high speed USB C cable would work if the cable gets damaged. First day use. It's a litlle less snappy in capturing, and a little more post scanning processing time. But seems to be a good scanner for a reasonable price. But too early to tell if it is as good as the trios 3. At least no yearly fees.
I would have understood your point in 2019 to 2020 but nowadays I feel you just need to get a good scanner and have a proper training. I do FMRs and All on X on IOS with no problems and actually easier then in analog workflows .
Hi Dr. Have been following you form quit along time. Big fan of you and thankyou for puttingout such informative video. I have a doubt regarding buying a scanner I'm an orthodontist based in a location where lab support is not adequate. So sir which scanner according to you is best for me keeping in mind the orthodontic perspective(virtual planning,treatment simulation etc) and restorative dentistry perspective in mind. Thanking you in advance sir
No unfortunately not. We had the prime scan. Gave it back after scanning 10 patients. Takes too long and the crowns that came back had a terrible fitting. Patients don’t mind taking an impression at all. It’s just a marketing trick from the company that built them.

Thanking you in advance sir
If you need to do Invisalign, only itero and trios 3 (not 4 or 5, only trios 3).
thank you for sharing
You're welcome!
