How is Sirona PrimeScan Used in Dentistry?

With the continuous development of dentistry technology, diagnosis and treatment methods are becoming faster, more accurate and effective. Sirona PrimeScan is one of the revolutions that these technological innovations have brought to dentistry. But what exactly is this device and how is it used by dentists? Here are all the details you are curious about.

Main Features of PrimeScan

Sirona PrimeScan is a digital scanning device and is equipped with an intraoral camera system. This camera scans the teeth and gums in the patient's mouth in high resolution. These images allow the dentist to plan treatment more accurately and effectively.

Use in Diagnostic Procedures

Detailed Screening

PrimeScan provides a detailed scan of the teeth and gums. In this way, problems such as cavities, calculus and gum disease can be detected at a much earlier stage.

3D Imaging

The resulting images can be analyzed as 3D models. This greatly facilitates the planning of complex treatments and surgical procedures.

Treatment Planning and Implementation

Restoration and Prosthesis Planning

PrimeScan is particularly useful for restoration (fillings, crowns, bridges, etc.) and prosthetic procedures. Based on the scan results, the physician can determine the best treatment options for the patient's needs.

Surgical Guidelines

Before surgical procedures such as implants, surgical guides can be created using 3D images. These guides enable the surgical procedure to be performed more accurately and safely.

Orthodontic Applications

In orthodontic treatments, PrimeScan can also be used to quickly and accurately analyze the current position of the teeth. This analysis is very valuable for the creation of the treatment plan.

User Friendly Interface and Training

PrimeScan has a user-friendly interface, so dentists can easily operate the device after a short training.

Sirona PrimeScan is one of the key tools accelerating the digital transformation in dentistry. Thanks to the convenience and advantages it offers in both diagnostic and treatment processes, it is indispensable for a modern dental practice.
