TECHNOLOGY
CARIES DIAGNOSTIC AID
SURFACE CARIES
TRIOS 4 has built-in fluorescent technology that aids in the identification of possible caries. Using TRIOS 4, dental professionals can now be aided in the early detection of surface caries, without the need for an additional scanning device.
INTERPROXIMAL CARIES
TRIOS 4 will also feature a dedicated transillumination smart tip later this year. The smart tip will aid in the identification of possible interproximal caries undetectable to the eye, without emitting radiation, and is the first launch within 3Shape’s new smart tip platform
SMART TIPS
The new generation of TRIOS smart tips features instant-heat technology for optimized scanning.
- Be scan-ready in seconds with instant-heat technology.
- Scan 2-3 times as many patients with instant-heat in combination with 30% more battery life.
- Optimal scanning due to automatic use counter and tip-change alert.
- The wireless model of the scanner can be plugged in and used if the battery runs out, which is a smart design choice.
- The TRIOS MOVE has also seen a minor improvement in that the screen size is now larger.
TRIOS is the only scanner with a completely wireless option. Although we have heard many times from other reps that this can cause connectivity issues and problems with scanning, this was never the case. The wireless scanner works without any effect at all, and it is a great option to have.
Improvements to the Dental Desktop user interface and overall optimization of the software. The whole workflow is more intuitive and flows a lot better. The navigation of all aspects of the software using only the scanner ‘wand navigation’ is also a great feature.
The TRIOS software has also seen significant improvements to its scope, including Clear Aligners, Dentures, Sleep appliances, and splints. The software works well for the most part but is still having some issues with stability, causing the occasional crash or file corruption. Trios 4 comes in Pod, Move and Move + variants.
