IDSconnect offered us access to Main Stage exhibitor and Product Stage live presentations as well as access to virtual exhibitor Showrooms to glean information about the selected company, its products, and services. We also contacted many of our colleagues who made it to the event to discuss their findings.
What became evident during the 2021 IDS was that it was one of those incremental periods of change in the evolutionary and revolutionary advancements of digital dentistry.
There were few new intraoral scanner releases in 2021, unlike 2019, and even fewer breakthrough advancements. Instead, most new announcements this year were about improving existing technologies or launched digital innovations in 2019.
With that being said, our IDS 2019 intraoral scanner review was received with huge interest and shared globally. Over 70,000 dentists have viewed that article to date to get an impartial opinion on intraoral scanners.
So it is time to update our review of the entire intraoral scanner market. This also gives us an opportunity to consolidate all our intraoral scanner reviews that we released over the past couple of years and to compare each scanner on an even playing field.
So without further ado, enjoy the review!
