PRESS RELEASE: Scans from the CS 3600 Are Now Validated by MODJAW Tech in Motion

Aug. 9, 2018

Carestream Dental is pleased to announce that the CS 3600 intraoral scanner has been validated for use with MODJAW Tech in Motion, a digital jaw tracking device that animates 3D models from intraoral scanners. The validation of the CS 3600 with MODJAW opens new treatment planning options for dental professionals.

The CS 3600 generates open-format STL files, which can be then imported into MODJAW for the creation of a 3D digital model. MODJAW Tech in Motion records the patient’s jaw motion and applies the motion of the jaw directly to the 3D model without the need for X-rays. The data can then be shared with the lab digitally, resulting in faster turnaround times and improved communication.

“Our partnership with MODJAW further expands the capabilities of the CS 3600, enabling us to offer our customers a more dynamic treatment planning experience,” Marianne Belcari, global product line manager for CS Solutions, Carestream Dental, said. “Viewing the occlusal contact points in real-time helps the clinician prepare a restorative prosthetic that best meets the fit and functional requirements of the patient."

“There is a strong need for all dental technologies to interact with each other quickly and in a simple manner. MODJAW is thrilled by this partnership with Carestream Dental as it opens the way to new and powerful diagnostic functionalities for dentists and the hope for optimized patient treatment planning,” said Antoine Rodrigue, CEO of MODJAW. “Combining the CS 3600’s great accuracy and MODJAW’s visualization of jaw motion in real time is a major step in bringing the full digital workflow in reach for dental professionals.”

MODJAW offers a unique 4D solution at the diagnostic and therapeutic stage for rehabilitation planning. By simply capturing jaw motion via a facebow and coordinated tracking device, MODJAW models the kinematics of patients and applies it to 3D digital models.
