Are you ready for a more comfortable visit to your dentist?
Introducing the Lava™ Chairside Oral Scanner C.O.S. from 3M ESPE.
With Lava™ C.O.S. your dentist will take highly accurate, digital impressions of your teeth. It's the beginning of a new, more comfortable and interactive process for restoring your smile.
Interactivity
Watch as the Lava™ C.O.S. captures and simultaneously displays real-time video images of your teeth. Then review, rotate, enlarge and even use 3D glasses to view your impression with your dentist on the touch screen monitor.
Comfort
About the size of an electronic toothbrush, the Lava™ C.O.S. wand is designed to glide comfortably over your teeth while capturing continuous 3d-video images. It replaces the uncomfortable traditional impression process which involves plastic trays, putty-like impression material and an unpleasant wait as the material sets in your mouth.
Precision
Your precise-fitting finished restoration is the result of proprietary and innovative technology that consists of advanced hardware design, high-speed image processing algorithims and robust real-time modeling software. It is likely the most sophisticated optical system your doctor has ever used.
Speed
Revolutionary 3D-in-Motion technology enables the Lava™ C.O.S. wand to continuously capture detailed video images, so you and your dentist can start reviewing your impression in a matter of minutes.
Award-Winning Design
In addition to its substantial innovations in optical technology, the Lava™ C.O.S. has also won a 2008 IDEA® Award. One of the premier international competitions for product design excellence, the IDEA® (International Design Excellence Awards) program recognizes breakthrough thinking in a wide range of new product areas. The award is one more indication of the innovative thinking behind the Lava™ C.O.S. and your assurance that your dentist is using the latest advancements in technology to improve your dental experience.
