Improves the scanning of bright surfaces in the mouth and on models
Especially suitable when scanning e.g. gold restorations or bright white stone models
When using Planmeca Emerald™, the dim mode is activated from a switch
When using Planmeca PlanScan®, the mode is activated by holding the scanner over the surface before hitting the dim mode button – this will allow it to adjust the intensity
Active filtering tool
Allows removing unwanted data that was scanned accidentally
There are two ways to activate the active filtering tool: - The first way is to click the trash can icon just above the scanner icon in the lower left corner of the software’s interface – this works with both scanners - The second way is to press and release the Planmeca Emerald™ scanner’s bottom button while the scanner is active
Once the active filtering mode is active, unwanted data can be removed by hovering the scanner over the desired area for 2–3 seconds
Snapshot function
Allows pictures of the live scanning view to be captured by hitting the Tab key
The perfect tool for documentation and communication
All captured images are stored in the Planmeca Romexis® 2D module
Dynamic bite alignment function
Allows automatic alignment of models when scanning the buccal bite – bringing each model into the live view when alignment occurs
Users can see when alignment is done, which saves time
Bite refinement tool
Allows users to refine the current bite and helps to determine the need of a buccal 2 scan
The tool can be accessed from a button on the bottom of the scan page while scanning the buccal bite
Occlusal contacts heat map and prep clearance
Provides an indication of the distance between arches in the align buccal option
Occlusal reduction is indicated by the cursor when it is moved over the preparation in the align buccal option
Bilateral bite scan option
The new bilateral buccal bite scan (Buccal 2 scan) option is now available for when an additional bite segment is needed to refine the bite
Allows more accurate bite alignment in full arch scans
Restoration positioning for Vita ENAMIC multiColor™
The chroma and translucency of the restoration can now be modified in the mill tab
The new software version enables designing implant abutments chairside in Planmeca PlanCAD® Easy and later on also milling of abutments with Planmeca PlanMill® 40 S (when materials from the manufacturer become available)
By using a Ti-Base connector, you can create one-piece screw-retained hybrid abutments and hybrid abutments with cemented crowns
Supported brands at the moment: - Astra - Biomet 3i - Nobel Biocare
Elos Accurate® Scanbodies are used to determine the exact position, angle, and rotation of an implant
Ivoclar e.max and Telio blocks with holes are used for milling with Planmeca PlanMill 40 S
The blocks can be ordered later on once made available by the material manufacturer
It is possible to send scans to dental laboratories for designing and manufacturing custom abutments
