3Shape Launches Updated TRIOS Intraoral Scanner Solutions at 3Shape Discover Event

At 3Shape Discover, the company’s recent online digital dentistry event, 3Shape announced the launch of a trio of new intraoral scanning solutions. The new TRIOS Core model is a new economical scanner model, while the TRIOS 3 scanner was updated with a new design, and the new TRIOS Ready Tips are a single-use solution for the TRIOS 5 scanner.

Designed to provide highly accurate intraoral scanning and all the key functions of other TRIOS scanner models, the TRIOS Core intraoral scanner features TRIOS artificial intelligence (AI) technology, but is still priced at $12,400. The new scanner connects with the 3Shape Unite platform and is designed for in-office scanning with digital impressions then sent to outside dental laboratories or clinical partners through the network. The scans are saved in the cloud, and accessible from anywhere via a secure interface. The wired scanner model connects via USB-C cable and weighs less than 1 lb.

“Professionals seeking a lower-priced scanner should never compromise on the essentials like accuracy and usability,” 3Shape CEO Jakob Just-Bomholt says in a press release. “That’s what makes our new TRIOS Core intraoral scanner so exciting. TRIOS Core packs 3Shape core scanning technology and a seamlessly integrated workflow with treatment partners in our most affordable scanner to date.”

The updated TRIOS 3 scanner has been redesigned with a new tinted twilight titanium shell. Additionally, the scanner’s cradle pod is 30% lighter and 10% smaller to take up less counter space in the operatory. It includes integrated TRIOS engagement apps and also connects to the 3Shape Unite platform. Also a wired scanner with a USB-C connection, the TRIOS 3 is compatible with the TRIOS MOVE+ setup.

The update to the TRIOS 5, the new TRIOS Ready Tips, is aimed at making scanning more convenient and hygienic for clinicians and patients. The single-use tips are each stored in a sealed package, allowing a practice to use a new tip for every patient, reducing the risk of cross-contamination. New purchases of TRIOS 5 scanners will include both autoclavable tips as well as a box of 25 TRIOS Ready Tips.

“TRIOS Core along with the refreshed TRIOS 3, and our TRIOS 4 and 5 systems, now create an unmatched portfolio of award-winning 3Shape intraoral scanners enabling dental professionals to easily take advantage of digital pathways,” Just-Bomholt says.
