Hi Mark,

If you dont mind me asking, what sort of cash did that beauty cost?

Hi Mark,
I may have missed it. Who is making it or what is the web address?
Thanks,
Bob

I checked the website out last night. IOS FastScan Digital Impression and Modeling System - IOS Technologies, Inc.
Seems good enough, don't know why they are using the bruxzir anterior bridge in the vid though, looks awful! And I think Glidewell had their hand in this scanner one way or another.

Mark I'd love to try the scanner. Just completed our first completely digital Valplast case for a Doc in CA that has IOS FastScan, had Glidewell print the models then we used 3Shape to design and print the Valplast baseplate. The case went perfectly without a single adjustment during try-in or delivery of the final restoration. Can't wait to do more removables cases with this technology!

Our experienece has been the same. We have been using the intra-oral version in our dental office and the fits have been remarkable. We have a new doctor who we picked up through the IOS network and he said his model-less BruxZir have been dropping in with no adjustments. Very, very happy so far.

Hi Mark (Jackson),

You've had your lab Fastscan now for almost 10 months. Can you give us some observations about the unit now that it's been used extensively in a production lab setting? How is the resolution, speed, ease of use, software useability, durability, product support, output quality, etc? It's a tempting product for a small lab. Any info would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
