Improved buccal bite alignment

The new buccal bite alignment function can be used after the buccal scan by clicking on the buccal refinement button in the Scan tab. The new function makes an automatic 3-point cusp alignment and fixes the bite in most cases. The user can toggle between the two ways of buccal alignment by clicking on the buccal refinement button again and choose the one that is more suitable for the case.

Modified button controls

The button functionalities of Planmeca Emerald™ S and Planmeca Emerald™ intraoral scanners have been modified. With the new software version, a short press on the lower button during the scan takes a snapshot while a long press turns the Active Delete function on or off.

In the previous software versions, it was the other way around. In the new software version, there are also helpful on-screen visualisations for the button controls


Support for Planmeca Cariosity™ tip

The new software version now supports the use of Planmeca Cariosity™ tip with Planmeca Emerald™ intraoral scanners. The Planmeca Cariosity tip can be used to visualise cracks and fractures in the patient’s teeth, and it helps detect supragingival proximal carious lesions and monitor their progression. The tips are autoclavable and connected to the scanner the same way as the other scanner tips. See Attaching / removing scanner tip in the user’s manual and Tip infection control procedure quick guide for more information.

The tip will be available for orders once the device has received EU MDR approval.
