HANGZHOU, China: SHINING 3D is proud to unveil a groundbreaking advancement in dental technology with the launch of the Aoralscan Elite, featuring the company’s revolutionary IPG (intra-oral photogrammetry) technology. This innovative solution sets a new benchmark for accuracy and efficiency in dental implant restoration, especially for full-mouth cases and all-on-X treatments.

The Aoralscan Elite is the first device in the world to integrate intra-oral scanning and photogrammetry into a single unit. As an advanced intra-oral scanner, it captures detailed images of dentulous cases, including teeth and oral structures. Additionally, it functions as a photogrammetry system, precisely recording the location of implants in edentulous cases. This dual functionality streamlines both conventional dental work and complex implant restoration procedures, enhancing versatility and efficiency.

Advanced photogrammetry technology

IPG technology is a cutting-edge solution that combines structured-light 3D reconstruction with photogrammetry. Developed by SHINING 3D, a leader in high-precision 3D vision technology, IPG technology is based on advanced photogrammetry techniques originally used in industrial metrology. This technology has been innovatively adapted for dental applications, particularly for scanning full-mouth cases treated with implants, delivering exceptional accuracy.

Key advantages of IPG technology:

  • Exceptional accuracy: The Aoralscan Elite utilises advanced image processing algorithms and real-time tracking to ensure high accuracy. Encoded patterns on scan bodies serve as control points for accuracy, optimising recognition and calculating the precise position and orientation of the implant for consistent results. The large IPG scanner tip minimises the influence of soft-tissue changes, further improving the accuracy of implant location.
  • Enhanced efficiency: IPG technology streamlines multi-angle intra-oral scanning, capturing accurate data from fewer angles using panoramic photogrammetry. This innovation minimises the need for multiple devices and complex workflows, allowing the Aoralscan Elite to handle full-mouth implant cases with ease.
  • Increased success rate: By providing accurate design and placement of large-span implant restorations, IPG technology reduces the likelihood of reworking caused by the conventional trial and error approach, compatibility issues and soft-tissue deformation, thereby improving treatment success rates.
  • Greater comfort and speed: Patients benefit from faster, more reliable diagnosis and treatment. The Aoralscan Elite’s precision reduces anxiety and uncertainty by providing accurate results quickly, enhancing the patient experience throughout the diagnostic and treatment process.

Seamless scanning for edentulous cases

The Aoralscan Elite’s IPG tip, being larger than standard, ensures wider and faster capture of edentulous oral geometries. High-resolution data enables dentists to accurately assess soft-tissue contours and identify abnormalities, leading to superior results in edentulous cases.

Comprehensive digital dental solutions

SHINING 3D offers a complete suite of advanced dental products, including intra-oral scanners, face scanners, laboratory scanners, 3D printers, washing and polymerising systems, and the Dental Cloud platform. With integrated design and communication tools, SHINING 3D provides an end-to-end digital dental solution, ensuring a seamlessly integrated workflow for all dental applications.
