3Shape launches all-new TRIOS 5 Wireless intraoral scanner

3Shape’s brand new TRIOS 5 Wireless is a completely new, state-of-the-art intraoral scanner designed to make it easier than ever for dentists to go digital with their dentistry.

A breakthrough in intraoral scanners, TRIOS 5 Wireless makes scanning smoother and faster with its all-new ScanAssist intelligent alignment technology that comes housed in a redesigned, compact and hygienically optimised scanner - to deliver the highest standard in imaging performance and infection control.

With over 50 improvements in ease of use and design, TRIOS 5 Wireless is 3Shape’s smallest and lightest scanner to date and is perfectly balanced to fit comfortably in any hand.

TRIOS 5 Wireless delivers an unprecedented level of scanning simplicity. An LED ring and haptic sensory feedback guide you while you scan to make digital impression taking smoother and faster than ever. And now with ScanAssist technology, which minimises misalignment and distortion in 3D models, you can scan your patients in any direction you want - just create the scan path that works best for you.

TRIOS 5 Wireless also features a closed autoclavable scanner tip protected by scratch-free sapphire glass. The scanner body has been designed for easy cleaning and disinfection.

“At 3Shape, we have strived for perfection through five generations of intraoral scanner evolution. Using state-of-the-art scan software and artificial intelligence to deliver sharper colours, improved accuracy and increased efficiency, we believe TRIOS 5 surpasses all expectations. With its ergonomic and well-balanced look inspired by classic Danish design, TRIOS 5 Wireless simply makes sense,” said Jakob Just-Bomholt, 3Shape CEO.

Smallest and lightest intraoral scanner to date

TRIOS 5 Wireless is 3Shape’s most streamlined scanner ever. The sleek, pen-grip scanner is optimally balanced to fit comfortably in any hand. TRIOS 5 is 30% more compact and weighs just 300 grams (with battery) and is only 266 mm long. In comparison, some competitor scanners weigh up to 470 grams and are more than 330 mm in length. And you can take your TRIOS 5 anywhere using TRIOS Share to scan from every PC in your practice.

Simply effortless - introducing intelligent-alignment technology

At the heart of TRIOS 5 is the ScanAssist engine, which features intelligent-alignment technology to make scanning even easier. Dental professionals will enjoy the built-in LED ring and haptic sensory feedback that guide you while you scan to make digital impression-taking smoother and faster. In fact, intraoral scanning with TRIOS 5 is so easy to do that you create the scan path you prefer. Highlights include:

  • Optimise your scans while you scan, guided by LED ring and haptic feedback and driven by the all-new, robust ScanAssist engine that minimises misalignment and distortion in 3D models to make impression-taking so simple that you can create your own scan strategy or scanning routine.
  • All-day battery life with Smart Power Management that automatically switches TRIOS 5 to sleep-mode to save energy when not in use. Up to 66 minutes of scan time per battery.
  • Precision 3D models with no need for a calibration tool - that means you no longer need to calibrate your scanner every 14 days like with other intraoral scanner models.
  • LED ring and haptic feedback guide you while you scan to make scanning easier. Two-button design for improved software navigation and scan analysis.

A new standard in infection control

TRIOS 5 Wireless reimagines intraoral scanner design. It is so easy to clean because it is hygienically sealed up to its battery inlet with no cracks or crevices that can accumulate soil or contaminants. A sapphire glass window encloses the autoclavable tip to create a sturdy microbial barrier between patient and scanner. TRIOS 5 Wireless also includes ultra-thin, snug and near-invisible single-use sleeves to cover the scanner body and minimise risk for cross-contamination.

Powered by 3Shape Unite

Like all 3Shape TRIOS scanners, TRIOS 5 Wireless includes the 3Shape Unite platform with it for free. Together, TRIOS and 3Shape Unite seamlessly to connect you to over 2000 dental companies, treatment solutions, practice management systems and labs, represented as apps on the dental world’s most open and collaborative platform. Doctors can also take advantage of 3Shape engagement apps, included free with TRIOS 5 Wireless, to help boost treatment acceptance.

Peace of mind service

TRIOS 5 Wireless owners can take advantage of two TRIOS service agreement options: TRIOS Care, which delivers focused onboarding, extensive training and unlimited support for practitioners, including express replacement if your scanner is damaged and TRIOS Only - a scan-ready free service agreement with no monthly costs. TRIOS 5 is 3Shape’s fifth-generation model of the world’s most recognized intraoral scanner bringing industry-leading scanning experiences, award-winning design, and unparalleled clinic-to-lab workflows – powered by 3Shape Unite.
