3M True Definition Scanner Connects with Straumann CARES Digital Implant Workflow

 3M True Definition Scanner Connects with Straumann CARES Digital Implant Workflow

A new trusted connection is available linking dental practices using 3M ESPE’s 3M True Definition Scanner directly to dental labs using Straumann’s CARES CAD/CAM system.

The new digital implant workflow allows clinicians with a True Definition Scanner to capture the digital impression using a Straumann CARES Mono Scanbody and then select the implant platform and restoration or abutment to be designed. This prescription and the digital impression are then sent to the lab via the Straumann CARES system, and the lab can design the restoration and order prosthetics or implant parts as needed. Several options exist for the lab workflow, but the end result is the dentist receiving the completed case in a single shipment, according to a press release.

The new connection with Straumann is available to North American True Definition owners who subscribe to the Advanced Data Plan which includes access to the 3M Connection Center and unlimited software upgrades. The connection will be available in the Belgium, Spain, Portugal and the Netherlands in the summer of 2014 with other European countries to follow in the fall.

More information on the connection is available at www.3M.com/TrueDefinition/Straumann.
