3D scanning technologies are used to convert a physical model into digital 3D computer-aided design (CAD) file. This digital output is well used for designing and fabricating customised parts through additive manufacturing (AM) technologies. There is a need to identify the contemporary level of adoption of 3D scanning technology in the dental area. This structured literature review based research first tries to identify different types of scanning technologies and then the necessary steps as used to create a design and manufacture dental implant using the 3 D scanning. A large number of the relevant research papers on 3D scanning applications in dentistry are identified through Scopus and analysed using bibliometrics.

This analysis indicates towards an increasing trend of research on 3D scanning applications in the field of dentistry. Different applications of this technology are discussed in the context of dentistry and observed that this technology create innovation in dental products for a dentistry lab. The dentist can take advantages of this technology towards designing custom teeth, crown, braces, dentures, veneers and aligner. 3D digital models also support teaching in dental education for better understanding and practice of the teeth anatomy. Along with the scanning of the complete denture of the patient, direct printing of the same is done by using AM technology produces denture which directly fits the mouth of the patient. It helps reduction of the complexity and production cycle time. 3D scanning technologies seem to have the potential for denture positioning and denture retention and improvement in existing dental implants.
Why Digital Dentistry Advancements Are So Beneficial
Remember how, just 26 years ago, there wasn’t a cure for chickenpox? It was almost a right of passage for a young child. Anyone over the age of thirty can attest to the absolute torture of those small, itchy dots that took over your entire body.
In 1995, the CDC approved a vaccine for this nuisance. That’s why today, kids (and some adults) have been saved from ever having to experience this temporary, yet infuriating, event.
We’ve come a long way in the world of medicine, and that includes the dental world. Today, with digital dentistry, you’re saved from similar uncomfortable scenarios like chickenpox.
Most patients can bypass those annoying teeth impressions now because we have 3D dental scanners. At Lasry Dental Clinic in Los Angeles, we use the high-end CBCT scanner. Other providers, such as Invisalign, use the Itero scanner.
