T-Scan
T-Scan III
• T-Scan III technology is a bite analysis system that measures the efficiency of how teeth come together and separate to protect natural teeth, restored teeth, implants, and muscles.
Component
• Sensor and Support• Handle assembly• Computer software• Printer
Sensor
• Two sizes available• Large• Small
Mechanism• Two modes• Time analysis• Force analysis
• Provides information on the location and timing of contact displaying on the screen with the first , second and third or more contact in different colour.
• Relative force in 5 different colours.
Submodes
• Instant• Sequential
T-scan analyzes• Order of occlusal contact while
simultaneously measures the changes in force percentages of the same contacting to maximum intercuspation.
• Premature contact and interference can be identified.
• Centre of Occlusal force(COF) , Asymmetry index of occlusal force(AOF).
• Disclusion time and Clusion time
Clinical Application• Implant• Restorative
Dentistry• Temporomandibular
Disorder• Orthodontics• Prosthodontics• Oral and
maxillofacial surgery
Implant
• Helpful to meet the needs of patients for reliable measurement of occlusal biting forces.
Restorative Dentistry
• Improrperly restored tooth can cause several problem like• Headache• TMD related problem• Fracture of tooth / restoration
• Save time of finishing of restoration.
Temporomandibular Disorder
• Prolonged Disclusion time • Frequency of premature contact• Asymmetry in the occluscal force
Orthodontics• T-Scan usage before and after
orthodontic treatment for every patient helps to attain the goal of correcting malocclusion and maintaining the proper bite force.
Prosthodontics• Clinically useful as a
diagnostic screening method for occlusal stability of intercuspal position.
