so glad to see my ortho isn't the only one who does this
I know I’m REALLY late on replying to this comment, I just wanted to say tho that if you didn’t do this before getting braces you would have to bite down on some clay stuff for 1 minute and it looks very uncomfortable 😬
I hated gooey impressions always made me gag no matter what flavor of goo I got glad to know this exists
Nice video. The scanner is much nicer for patients. No more messy impressions
I have taken out my Invisalign and this is the album ©
IM SO HAPPY I THOUGH IWAS HAVEIMG TO GET IMPRESSIONS AND BRACES ON THE SAME DAY YAY THEY DID THE SCAN ON THE 2nd DAY IM SO HAPPY
Hi Ms Roxxann
Good no more impressions
Vertical moment of tooth occur during the bracing procedure
Had this done.. it was quick and comfortable... but not to comfortable when they want the back deep parts of your teeth..
Glad it was a good experience. I agree that that scanning the back teeth in the mouth can be challenging for us sometimes.
is the scanner used for retainers after treatment with braces?
oh thank goodness. I have braces and am getting them off soon and my orthodontist never took impressions before I got them on and I never knew why and we have the same scanner. Ive always heard bad stories about the impressions so Im not a fan lol Thank you for the info!!!
Bradley Nirenblatt 1 second ago I researched many different scanners before choosing our 3Shape Trios. Our patient's love not having impressions and seeing their teeth and the way they meet (occlusion) in 3D. For me as the doctor, 3 Shape has developed some amazing software to allow us to make our own aligners in house with a 3D printer. We are not quite there yet but stay tuned! Another great benefit is that the aligners and retainers fit amazingly well; much better than using impression material.
Galaxy Eyes did u have to do the impressions with the gooey stuff after you got your braces off ?
I am doing the scan on Jan 8th and I wanted to see what the scan looked like and it looks cool
It is cool! This technology is amazing and your aligners will fit much better than traditional impressions.
Does this had sideffects ?? Radiation poisioning?
In general, how long after a retainer scan would someone get their braces off?
It depends on your orthodontist but typically around 4 weeks as the “braces” need to be digitally removed from your .STL file ( your 3D teeth models) then the models are 3D printed and then the retainers are made from the 3D printed models. It can certainly be accomplished faster than 4 weeks but this is average.
I have a question: does the devise touch the teeth when doing the scanning, or does the dentist only "hover over" them? I'm about to get a retainer for my lower teeth but I have veneers on my upper teeth (I broke them as a kid) and I can't stand having those touched my anyone or anything!
Hi Cynthia, you don't have to worry about your upper veneers because the scanner does hover over the teeth and shines a light over them to take images. We don't physically have to touch your teeth. The technology is really amazing. The image creates a 3D imaging file called an .STL file which can be 3D printed in our office to make retainers and clear aligners without sending them to a lab or a mail order aligner company.
@@Drnirenblatt Great, thank you so much for your reply! :) :)
Is that for every orthodontist in USA
Hi, only orthodontists that purchase a 3D Scanner will be able to provide this service. Here is a link to the scanner we use: www.3shape.com/products/trios/intraoral-scanners
hi does this make you gag like the gooey impressions ? or does this not make you gag at all ? if that makes sense
No gagging because it is essentially a camera taking pictures of the surfaces of the teeth.
Nirenblatt Orthodontics oh thank you
