How to Import Digital Impression Overlay (DIO) Files in T-Scan Software

In this video, Shane Varga, T-Scan Regional Sales Manager for Tekscan, Inc., shows you just how easy it is to import your intraoral scanning STL files into T-Scan Novus software.

An intraoral scanner can’t replicate a patient biting or performing functional movements in real time. So while an intraoral scanner can help you visualize a patient’s bite, it doesn’t provide any actionable data about the patient’s bite. That’s where T-Scan comes in.

Not only will this help enhance your digital workflow, T-Scan will provide an accurate picture of your patient's bite, complete with force measurements.
