Danish orthodontist Dr Karin Becktor highlights the scanner’s time-saving efficiency: “We find digital procedures just as accurate and more efficient, as staff do not need to spend time with retakes or pouring and trimming models.”

With 20,000 partner laboratories, TRIOS 3 users benefit from seamless workflows. As Dr Douglas Watt, a digital dentistry expert from the UK, explains: “The workflows make it easy to communicate. I can add photos to my case, send those to the lab, and receive designs back, which I can then validate and return to the lab. Brilliant.”

TRIOS 3 also includes free engagement apps, which serve as visual tools to help personalise patients’ experiences and ensure their concerns are addressed. These apps offer dental professionals various ways to engage with patients, enhance treatment proposals and support case acceptance.

The new TRIOS 3 pod optimises workspace by being 30% lighter, 10% smaller and with fewer cables compared with previous models. The LED indicator light clearly shows when it’s connected and ready.

Dr Barbara Jurim, a prosthodontist from New York, shares her experience: “My learning curve with using a TRIOS unit was nonexistent. Essentially, I picked it up, and from the very first moment, I was able to take a full-arch scan.” For instances where guidance is needed, the TRIOS service plan, TRIOS Care, includes onboarding, consultation, support and ongoing training from experts, with the first year on the plan included.
