3M ESPE has expanded its digital impression product line with the new 3M True Definition scanner.
The system is supported by the 3M Connection Center, a cloud-based platform designed to enable choices for sharing clinical case files, the company explained in a press release, including open STL (3D) files. The digital impression system is also designed to connect with other systems, including chairside and lab-based mills.
The scanner features "3D-in-motion" video technology, which allows users to capture and simultaneously view a true replica of the oral anatomy, according to 3M.
The system will enter the U.S. market with a recommended retail price of $11,995. Data plans begin at $199 per month.
3M ESPE will have the scanner on display this week at the ADA Annual Session in San Francisco in booth No. 5644.
