CHICAGO, Ill., USA: Straumann USA, LLC, of Andover, Mass., is launching its Straumann CARES Intraoral Scanner by Dental Wings, a new digital dentistry solution built on a patented and compact 3-D capture technique called Multiscan Imaging, at the 2016 Midwinter Meeting. The Straumann CARES Intraoral Scanner is designed to address the specific need of dental professionals looking for an intuitive digital impression technology.

With the overall objective to help the dentist focus on the patient rather than the technology, the Straumann CARES Intraoral Scanner system offers a remarkably small handpiece to ensure patient comfort and excellent clinical access, visual and audible feedback, according to the company. This allows the user to focus on the patient and not the system’s screen, the company asserts, adding that there is also optimized gesture control and voice command, allowing for touch-free operation of the system while the user has gloves on.

The Straumann CARES Intraoral Scanner is an integral part of the Dental Wings ecosystem of open digital technologies, giving dental professionals the freedom to choose between open architecture and trusted workflows. According to the company, Straumann CARES offers flexible solutions that enable customers to transform their prosthetic expertise into great clinical outcomes.

The Straumann CARES Intraoral Scanner will be distributed through Benco and Burkhart Dental, two industry leaders serving more than 40,000 dentists and dental laboratories. Through the combination of these two distributor networks, Straumann will broaden its reach to a larger audience.
