Useful Scanning Tips
•
Keep close to teeth
(recommended distance from tip to tooth is 0-12 mm)
•
Scan slowly and smoothly
, to avoid interrupting the 3D reconstruction
(minimum 1 second per tooth)
•
Keep teeth in center of the field of view
•
Angle the scanner tip
to take in
as much gingiva as possible
(bite alignment is based on gingival data)
•
Avoid extraneous items
(lips, cheeks, tongues, gloves, etc.)
•
Do not hesitate to
reset scan if necessary
Begin your scan by starting on the arch of chosen restoration. If you have selected to
scan the antagonist, you may start by scanning either arch.

Before You Scan: Important Notice
Before launching a scan:
•
Make sure the
EzScan Scanner is correctly connected to the computer via
the USB 3.0 cable provided and the EzScan-I software is running.
•
Make sure the
computer
on which the EzScan-i software is installed is
connected to an external power source.
IMPORTANT
: Before each patient, the scanner’s removable tip must
be sterilized using an autoclave. See below: Section 9.2
IMPORTANT
:
If using a laptop computer, make sure the power supply
is connected to a power outlet and not running on battery power.
Failure to do so will mean that the scanner will not have sufficient
power to produce images.
On laptop computers, battery settings in Windows should be
configured to high performance mode only, with no battery saving
option (Settings/System/Battery).
