One major benefit of digital dentistry is the use of advanced diagnostics technology like intraoral scanners and digital x-rays. Intraoral scanners create 3D images of the inside of the mouth by using optical scanning technology.

Difference between traditional & digital scanning :

1. Less chair time & less number of appointments required.
2. Improved quality of images for better-fitting restorations
3. Eliminates the need for uncomfortable and distasteful restoration materials that may cause gagging
4. Ensures more comfort and less anxiety for patients
5. Reduces the likelihood of errors and material inaccuracies
6. Storing impressions digitally makes it possible to keep them for a long time, saving space and ensuring efficient recordkeeping
