Abstract

Rapid advancements in digital technology have changed a number of sectors in recent years. Artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics are two examples of advanced technology that have been adopted into the medical industry. The intraoral scanner is a portable device with a tiny optical camera that collects virtual dental models that is widely employed in dentistry that works by projecting structured light (white, red, or blue). The program then compiles the individual photos or video that are captured after identifying certain locations of interest. The points of interest captured from various perspectives are then matched to create a 3D model. One of the biggest benefits of intraoral scanning is that it eliminates all the painful parts of taking a traditional impression and allows for the simple rescanning of certain areas that may not have been recorded completely. Hence, this review article will be discussed on principles of imaging, different brands of IOS, advantages and advancements in IOS.
