Carestream Dental Intraoral Scanners Offer New Integration with 3M™ Oral Care Portal
ATLANTA—Doctors using Oral Care Portal to plan treatment for 3M™ Clarity™ Aligners and Carestream Dental’s CS 3500 and CS 3600 intraoral scanners now have an easy and efficient way to submit their digital scans: A new integration that allows doctors to conveniently send their files directly to 3M through CS Imaging software version 8, using the CS Connect portal.
There’s
no need to export the case from the CS Acquisition software and then
upload it through the 3M portal. Instead, the submission can be handled
automatically within Carestream Dental’s software, reducing clicks and
saving time.
“Any
time cases must be manually moved between software programs there’s a
risk for errors,” Ed Shellard, D.M.D., chief dental officer, Carestream
Dental, said. “Our new integration with 3M automates the process of
submitting cases and reduces confusion.”
The
CS 3600 features an orthodontic workflow and is known for its speed and
accuracy, both important features for capturing dual arches for clear
aligner cases. Its acquisition software allows for up to five HD 2D
intraoral quadrant “snapshots” to be extracted from the digital
impression, eliminating the need to take intraoral photographs for
documentation. Just recently, Carestream Dental introduced a new feature
that even allows the scanner to play music during the scanning process,
further delighting young patients.
“We’re
excited to offer this new integration with Carestream Dental as part of
advancing our open software platform, Oral Care Portal,” Beth Edgar,
Custom Orthodontics Business Director, 3M, said. “Having a process to
easily upload and transfer files eliminates manual steps and enables the
office to complete their order for Clarity Aligners in a streamlined
manner.”
