DPR talked to 3M ESPE's Chad Naughton, Western Regional Sales Director, and Mark Cotton, Marketing Manager, about the slew of major announcements the company has made of late.

First, Mark Cotton outlines 3M ESPE's new Imprint 4 VPS Impression Material. Said to be the fastest impression material on the market, Imprint 4 reportedly sets in just 75 seconds.

The material is super-hydrophilic, and displaces moisture right from the start in the unset state, which helps prevent detail-disrupting voids. This leads to impressions with precise details , precise-fitting restoration and fewer adjustments.

Second, Chad Naughton covers the 3M True Definition Scanner and how this solution is helping advance impression taking. Recently, this system has been updated to include a new wand, which is designed to fit in the hand like a traditional dental handpiece, with a narrow, angled tip and a slim profile said to be so ergonomically balanced it allows for one-handed scanning.

This reportedly enhances the reach to the challenging posterior anatomy. The small profile and fast scan time are engineered to make scanning with the redesigned 3M True Definition Scanner system more comfortable for dentists, orthodontists, their staff and patients.
