Scan Criteria
• ELOS Accurate™ Intra Oral Single Unit scan bodies only are supported for this workow.
• Place the angled surface of the scan body toward the buccal or labial in the mouth.
• Check for proper t of the scan body on the dental implant and hand-tighten the screw. X-ray to verify correct seating.
• The scan body should not contact the adjacent teeth when screwed in place.
• The occlusal scan of the scan body should have no data holes.
• At least half of the scan body should be above the gingiva. At least 80% of the surface must be captured.
• Interproximal areas must be captured.
• A quadrant scan is sucient for simple implant cases (cases limited to a quadrant).
Without Emergence Prole
Remove the healing cap from the implant and
place the scan body with the angled surface of the
scan body toward the buccal or labial.
Check that the scan body is seated correctly on
the implant and tighten lightly by hand to NO
MORE THAN 5Ncm. Over tightening can result
in a distorted scan body and inaccurate scan
result. An x-ray is recommended to verify
correct seating.
Lightly spray the area to be scanned.
Choosing the appropriate arch on the Scan
Screen, capture the scan body, surrounding
tissue, adjacent contacts and rest of the operative
arch desired.
Remove the scan body and replace the healing
cap to protect the head of the implant.
Capture the opposing arch, following
recommended scanning techniques.
Scan one bite for a quadrant scan or three bites for
a full arch scan.* Refer to Scanning Positions and
Protocols in the 3M™ True Denition User Manual.
Add, review and accept the scanned implant
area in the Scanning Screen, as you would for a
conventional crown preparation. This must be
done to complete and send the prescription.
With Emergence Prole
Remove the healing cap from the implant site.
Lightly spray the area to be scanned.
Capture the opposing arch, following
recommended scanning techniques.
Choose the appropriate arch on the Scan Screen,
capture surrounding tissue around implant site,
adjacent contacts and rest of the operative arch
desired.
Scan 1 bite for a quadrant scan or 3 bites for a
full arch scan. Refer to Scanning Positions and
Protocols in the 3M™ True Denition User Manual.
Place the scan body with the angled surface of the
scan body toward the buccal or labial.
Check that the scan body is seated correctly
on the implant and tighten lightly by hand to
NO MORE THAN 5Ncm. Over tightening can
result in a distorted scan body and inaccurate
scan result. An x-ray is recommended to verify
correct seating.
Choose the additional scan feature on the screen,
lightly re-spray the area if needed, capture scan
body and surrounding tissue around implant site,
adjacent contacts and rest of the operative arch
desired.
Remove the scan body and replace the healing cap
to protect the head of the implant.*
Add, review and accept the scanned implant
area in the Scanning Screen, as you would for a
conventional crown preparation. This must be
done to complete and send the prescription.
