Information provided by Carestream Dental

	Carestream Dental has introduced CS Solutions for Implants, a digital integrated implant solution that is said to support more confident diagnoses, improved treatment planning, better patient/referral communication and greater confidence when placing implants.

	Prosthetically driven implant planning starts by combining the data sets from a digital impression taken by either the CS 3500 or CS 3600 intraoral scanner and a CBCT scan by either the CS 8100 3D extraoral imaging system or CS 9300 system. The two scans are reportedly automatically aligned in CS 3D Imaging software to create a virtual set-up with little to no manipulation from the doctor.

	Next, a new Prosthetic-Driven Implant Planning module of CS 3D Imaging allows doctors to virtually plan the crown and implant on the same screen to ensure that the implant is positioned according to the ideal future restoration. Doctors add the crown to the combined scanner/CBCT datasets and place the implant from a library featuring more than 60 manufacturers. They can also create their own implants and manage their own library.

	The software reportedly helps doctors make better decisions about optimal crown and implant position, which leads to more control over the final clinical and aesthetic outcomes.

	CS Solutions for Implants is an open system, so data can also be exported

into third-party software for the creation of surgical guides and digital impression files can be shared with the lab of choice for the creation of abutments and restorations.  

	From 3D scans to the finished surgical guide, CS Solutions for Implants is a fully integrated and digital solution for implant treatment. The digital workflow is said to improve efficiency by eliminating many treatment steps and appointments and improving collaborative planning.

New workflow from Carestream Dental improves predictability, which reportedly gives doctors more confidence when placing implants

Carestream Dental introduces CS Solutions for Implants

	The CS 3600 intraoral scanner from Carestream Dental is designed to simplify the scanning process with high-speed, continuous scanning; an Intelligent Matching System; autoclavable tips; and stunning high-definition full HD 3D images.

’s continuous scanning capabilities reportedly significantly reduce the time it takes to acquire a scan. Users can scan in a smooth, uninterrupted manner without worrying about the impact of unsteady hands or fidgeting patients between successive views.

To make scanning even more efficient, the CS 3600 also features an Intelligent Matching System that allows users to freely fill in missing information for any area in the data set. Simply jump to any position in the mouth; there’s no need to indicate an exact location to the system or to follow a specific direction, as the scanner will “auto-locate” for the user.

	Additionally, the broad 13 mm scanning range is designed to allow users to capture scans in a way that feels most natural to them. The scanner does not need to be kept at a fixed distance to produce optimal scans; whether hovering or briefly resting the scanner on a tooth, users can use whichever method they prefer without disrupting the flow or the image capture process.

The CS 3600 also comes with two rounded, interchangeable tips in different orientations-normal and side-oriented-so users can capture scans in hard-to-reach areas while considering patient comfort. Both styles are autoclavable to support sterilization for infection control and can be used up to 20 times.

No matter which tip is used, the scans captured by the CS 3600 are available as both 2D and full HD 3D color images. The HD 3D color feature offers superb image quality with more vivid color and texture that better reflect in-vivo anatomy.

The CS 3600 also includes many of the same features of 

’s previous generation of scanner, the CS 3500. It’s lightweight, making it easy to carry from operatory to operatory; includes an onboard heater; and produces open .STL and .PLY files that reportedly are easy to export to any open third-party design software or lab that accepts digital impressions. Plus, the CS 3600 has no additional fees to scan or to send scans to a third party.
