“This new step forward in impression taking offers a win-win experience for clinicians, laboratories and patients.”Īccording to BIOMENT, greater patient satisfaction may occur as intraoral scanning eliminates the need for impression material some patients find this is a more comfortable experience. “We are pleased to offer the latest digital solutions, which will lead to aesthetic outcomes for patients,” said Bart Doedens, president of BIOMET 3i. The process is handled supragingivally by utilizing the BellaTek Encode Impression System, so no removal of the healing abutment is required to create the scan.
These codes provide the necessary information to design and mill the definitive abutment. Utilizing these combined technologies, clinicians are able to take an impression of a healing abutment with the use of an intraoral device that will scan embedded codes on the occlusal surface of the abutment, the surrounding soft tissue and adjacent dentition. The collaboration will create intraoral impressions for custom abutments, resulting in simplified aesthetic restorations. that utilizes the BIOMET 3i BellaTek ® Encode ® Impression System with the CEREC AC with Bluecam and CEREC AC with Omnicam.
