The system is supported by an open and secure cloud-based platform with open STL files, offering dentists and labs more ways to store clinical cases, share and connect.

The 3M True Definition wand is small and ergonomic like a handpiece. It never needs to be calibrated because it’s designed without fragile moving parts.

With 3D video technology, the 3M True Definition Scanner makes it possible to capture and simultaneously view a true replica of the oral anatomy, giving the flexibility needed for quadrant dentistry and the accuracy needed for full arch dentistry.

The accuracy of the data captured by the 3M True Definition Scanner also means that models are no longer necessary-saving time and lab labor without compromising the quality and fit of the final restoration.
