3DISC HERON IOS Intraoral Scanner
The 3DISC Heron IOS color intraoral scanner is manufactured in the USA using state-of-the-art technology by 3DISC, a leading company specializing in the design and production of advanced digital imaging equipment for dentistry. This scanner offers numerous features, one of the most notable being its extremely lightweight design.
In older models of intraoral scanners, fogging was a common issue when placed inside the patient’s mouth, reducing usability. However, the new generation of scanners, including the Heron IOS, features an anti-fog system that ensures clear operation and convenience for dental professionals.
Function of the Color Intraoral Scanner:
The system creates a three-dimensional digital impression for dental restorations. The generated file contains tooth morphology data for use in CAD/CAM systems to produce restorative prosthetics. It can connect with dental clinic management software for patient data storage and with Exocad design software to design crowns, bridges, inlays, onlays, and veneers. The scanner also features shade detection and color matching during scanning.
