What is intraoral scanning?
A handheld wand that captures your whole mouth in 3D — no trays, no mess.
An intraoral scanner is a handheld device that captures thousands of images per second to build a precise 3D digital model of your teeth and gums. It replaces the messy, gag-inducing putty impressions that dentistry relied on for decades.
At The Tooth Story, the intraoral scanner sits at the heart of our digital workflow — feeding accurate data directly to the lab and our CAD/CAM unit for crowns, veneers, aligners and implant restorations. The result is a better fit, fewer remakes, and a far more comfortable patient experience.
In one sentence
Intraoral scanners replace putty impressions with a fast, comfortable 3D digital scan — improving accuracy and speeding up every restorative and cosmetic treatment.
Why it matters
Six reasons digital scanning beats putty impressions.
- 01
No more gagging
The biggest patient complaint about dentistry — putty impressions — is eliminated entirely. The scanner wand is small and comfortable.
- 02
Sub-millimetre accuracy
Digital scans capture detail that putty cannot, producing better-fitting crowns, veneers and aligners.
- 03
Faster appointments
A full-arch scan takes under five minutes — and the data is sent to the lab instantly, with no courier delay.
- 04
See your scan live
Watch your teeth appear on screen in 3D. We can show you exactly what we see and explain treatment clearly.
- 05
Fewer remakes
Accurate scans mean fewer ill-fitting restorations that need to be remade — saving you repeat visits.
- 06
Permanent digital record
Your scan is stored digitally, so future restorations can reference your exact anatomy without re-scanning.
How it works
Your digital scan, step by step.
A quick, comfortable process that replaces the old putty trays entirely.
- 01
Quick prep
1 minute
Your teeth are gently dried. No trays, no putty, no setting time — you simply sit back comfortably.
- 02
Scanning
3–5 minutes
A small wand glides over your teeth, capturing thousands of images per second to build a live 3D model on screen.
- 03
Review & send
1 minute
We review the 3D model with you on screen, then send it digitally to the lab or our in-house CAD/CAM unit instantly.

FAQs
The most asked intraoral scanning questions.
Have a different question? Call The Tooth Story on +91 92058 32143.
No. Intraoral scanning is completely painless and far more comfortable than traditional putty impressions. The small wand simply glides over your teeth — there is no gagging, no setting time, and nothing to bite into.
Digital scans are more accurate (capturing sub-millimetre detail), more comfortable (no putty or gagging), faster (under five minutes), and instantly transmitted to the lab. This produces better-fitting crowns, veneers and aligners with fewer remakes.
At The Tooth Story, the intraoral scanner is used for crowns, bridges, veneers, laminates, clear aligners, implant restorations and Digital Smile Design — essentially any treatment that previously required a physical impression.
No. Intraoral scanning is included in the cost of the treatments that use it, such as crowns, veneers and aligners. A standalone digital record scan is available separately for patients who want a baseline.
Yes — local anaesthesia does not affect driving ability. If you opt for nitrous oxide sedation or are particularly anxious, we recommend a friend or family member accompany you.
A full-arch intraoral scan typically takes three to five minutes per arch. The entire process — including review — is usually done in under ten minutes, far faster than waiting for putty impressions to set.
