3Shape Trios® intraoral scanner gets Dentrix® Connected

3Shape Trios® intraoral scanner gets Dentrix® Connected, allowing for an improved workflow.

3Shape announced that its TRIOS® intraoral scanner is Dentrix® Connected with Henry Schein’s Dentrix® patient management system.

The integration is powered by Digital Dental Exchange (DDX) OS, a web-based service that is said to enable practitioners to quickly and efficiently exchange and manage casework with a laboratory partner. This marks the first time that the Dentrix patient management platform Version 6.1 integrates with a digital impression solution.

Dentrix practices using the TRIOS intraoral scanner can insert its digital color impressions directly into Dentrix patient charts, which can then be automatically transferred to the TRIOS system when doctors begin new cases with TRIOS.

The Dentrix Connected version of TRIOS also allows Dentrix users to open intraoral scans of patients from within the patient management system, reportedly resulting in greater workflow efficiencies by having a comprehensive view of the patient’s billing information and clinical history on one digital platform. At the same time, having real color TRIOS scans easily accessible in Dentrix, makes it more convenient for practices to discuss treatment planning and oral health with their patients.

Other benefits of the integration for Dentrix users are said to include eliminating the need for re-entering patient data, having stronger case and patient documentation, improving communication with labs and viewing TRIOS 3D color scans on any PC in the practice’s network.

Integration roll out begins Q2, 2017. For more information, please go to www.henryscheindental.com/3shapetrios
