Introduction

The TRIOS Ready Tip is a single-use scanner tip intended to be used together with TRIOS 5 & TRIOS 6 in a non-sterile workflow to capture digital topographical 3-D images of teeth, including bite, gingivae and palate directly from the patient’s mouth or models of the teeth. It is a ready-to-use tip which does not require any prior preparation as long as your software is up to date.

The TRIOS Ready Tip is always ready and therefore streamlines the workflow, giving dentists more time with patients and less time on preparation with the consistent TRIOS 5 & TRIOS 6 high scan quality. Hygienic by design in a single-use pouch, the TRIOS Ready Tip minimizes the risk of patient cross-contamination.

The TRIOS Ready Tip is compatible with TRIOS 5 & TRIOS 6.

There are 25 tips in individual pouches in the box.

Before using the TRIOS Ready Tip, always remember to update your UNITE software to the latest version.
