A digital impression in dentistry is a technology-driven process that allows dentists to take a digital scan of a patient’s teeth, gums, and mouth structures to create an accurate representation of their oral anatomy. With digital impressions, dentists use a specialised digital scanner or intraoral camera to capture the details of the oral anatomy in real-time. The resulting digital model is then used for a variety of dental procedures, including planning for restorations like crowns, bridges, and implants and designing orthodontic appliances like braces. A scanner records the size and shape of each tooth automatically, instantly combining the retrieved data into a 3D rendering of the patient’s mouth that’s then visible on a monitor.
This technology replaces the traditional method of taking physical impressions using putty and trays. These high-tech systems are growing in popularity because they simplify the impression process, increase accuracy, decrease procedure time, and enable digital integration with dental laboratories. Digital impressions eliminate the technique sensitivity and patient discomfort of using impression materials, and the 3D digital models they create are highly accurate and detailed.
At Paul Dental Clinic, we use a digital scanner to capture the details of the oral anatomy of the patient and use this digital impression for planning and restorations like crowns, bridges, implants, and braces.
