What Makes OPTISPLINT ® Different? Unlike other systems on the market, the OPTISPLINT® recommended workflow allows clinicians to scan the scan body extraorally, minimizing intraoral movement that can compromise scan accuracy. The scan body also serves as a verification jig, making OPTISPLINT an elegant bridge between analog and digital workflows. #DigitalDentistry #FullArchImplants #DentalImplants #allonx #AOX
