DIGITAL DENTISTRY LEARNING HUB

Digital dentistry continues to evolve rapidly, and intraoral scanners sit at the center of nearly every modern workflow. Among the fastest-growing names in this space is Shining 3D, a global technology company that has made significant inroads into dentistry with its Aoralscan family of intraoral scanners.

Intraoral scanning continues to be one of the most transformative technologies in modern dental practice. With every iteration, manufacturers push boundaries in speed, accuracy, comfort, and workflow integration.

Digital dentistry is no longer about early adoption—it’s about optimization, efficiency, and scalability. As we head into 2026, dental practices are shifting from “Should we go digital?” to “How do we get more from the technology we already own?”

For many dentists, the iTero® scanner is already a cornerstone of their digital workflow. But what far fewer clinicians realize is that hidden inside the iTero ecosystem is a powerful design tool that can fundamentally change how you approach in-house restorations.

Orthodontists are looking for intraoral scanners that strike the perfect balance of performance, ease-of-use, and cost-efficiency. In 2025, we personally witness Alliedstar emerge as a rising favorite among orthodontists (and dentists at large)—and it’s easy to see why.

The Digital Scanner Race Heats Up in 2026

As digital dentistry continues its rapid evolution, intraoral scanners have become one of the most transformative tools in the modern dental workflow.

As implant dentistry becomes increasingly digital, clinicians are seeking scanning technologies that offer precise control, flexible workflows, and intelligent software guidance.

Every month, over 7,500 are searching Google asking "how much does the Medit i900 cost"?

This video shows the full digital workflow with replacing old amalgams to a 3D-printed onlay. We are using the iTero Lumina™ and the SprintRay Midas for this case.
