Intraoral scanners (IOS) and digital impression technology are modern tools in prosthodontics that capture accurate 3D images of the oral cavity, replacing traditional impression materials. They are used for designing crowns, bridges, dentures, and implant-supported prostheses. These technologies improve accuracy, patient comfort, and efficiency, while integrating seamlessly with CAD/CAM systems.Key benefits include better fit of restorations, faster turnaround times, and improved communication with dental labs. IOS are particularly useful in fixed and implant prosthodontics, and increasingly in removable prosthodontics. However, they come with challenges such as high initial cost, learning curve, and difficulty scanning subgingival areas.Overall, digital impressions are becoming essential in modern prosthodontic practice due to their precision and streamlined workflow.
