Clinically Tested. Statistically Superior.

Accuracy is the combination of two important and complementary elements: trueness and precision. Trueness refers to whether a measurement matches the actual quantity being measured, while precision indicates the ability of that measurement to be consistently repeated.

According to “Accuracy of Four Intraoral Scanners in Oral Implantology: A Comparative In-Vitro Study”¹, the CS 3600 surpassed leading competitors by delivering the best performance in terms of overall trueness.

Not only did the CS 3600 have the best trueness results, it was also “significantly better” than the three other intraoral scanners. Because the “CS 3600 gave the best trueness results,” the study recommends its use in “similar clinical settings.”

The final takeaway gleaned from the study was that “no statistically significant differences were found in the precision among the four different IOS (intraoral scanners).”

"My staff loves the scanner because of how easy it is to use—they were able to pick it up after scanning only one or two patients."

Matthew Nichols, D.D.S.

Harness the Power of Intraoral Scanning

At your practice, every second counts. Every extra step during image acquisition is a distraction from your daily work. Fortunately, when digital scanning is made simple and easy, you have more time for diagnosis, treatment planning and, more importantly, time to focus on what really matters—caring for your patients. Carestream Dental intraoral scanners transform your practice by helping you and your patients move quickly and comfortably from exam to treatment. And now, with two great scanners to choose from, you can find a solution that meets your exact clinical needs for fast, easy and accurate digital imaging.

High-Speed Continuous Scanning

Continuous scanning allows the user to scan in a smooth, uninterrupted manner, greatly reducing the time it takes to capture a digital impression. This high speed makes it ideal for time-consuming dual arch scans.

Choose the Tip that Suits Your Needs

Comfortable scanning is made possible with the CS 3600. The normal tip is ideal for general scanning, while the interchangeable and unique side-oriented tip is specifically designed with a lower tip height to help scan in difficult-to-reach areas like the buccal, occlusal and posterior regions, while the posterior tip is designed specifically for scanning the posterior region in children and adults with smaller mouths. All styles are autoclavable to support optimal sterilization for infection control and can be used up to 60 times.* The CS 3600 tips also offer the shortest height of any autoclavable tips in the market, making it comfortable for even the smallest mouths.

*Tips can be autoclaved up to 60 times if the exposure is limited to 134˚C at no more than 4 minutes and if gauze is used, as outlined in the CS 3600 Family Safety, Regulatory, and Technical Guide (9J8269)

Intuitive Features for Improved Clinical Outcomes

Reach expert scanning level quickly with live scanning warnings that provide feedback in real time, indicating areas of the scan that lack detail and require additional scanning to optimize your clinical outcome.Green arrows guide the way: Green arrows display the ideal direction in which the user should rescan missing information, providing real-time feedback that significantly increases scanning efficiency. Get alerted of missing data: Yellow and green highlights alert you of any gaps or holes in the scan, indicating that the area needs to be rescanned for optimal detail.

Confirm your preparation

Undercut check automatically detects undercuts based on the selected area, helping to ensure your digital impression is optimal for the restoration. Aesthetic scans that reflect reality: Self-adaptive filling automatically identifies holes and selects the appropriate anatomical color for the optimal aesthetic outcome.

"In our opinion, the CS 3600 intraoral scanner is superior. It’s faster and makes image capture quite easy."

Stephen D. Poss, D.D.S.
