Data scanning method
Intraoral operation principles The scanning distance is constant, and you
should not be too far or near.
27
PANDA P2 Operation Manual
Using fulcrums for intra-oral operations to ensure uniform and stable
scanning. Please scans the occlusal surface first to determine the dental arch
and then come back to scan the details. The current scan and the scanned data
are multiplexed to confirm that the data is complete.
Upper Jaw and Lower Jaw scan Recommended grip position: pen-holding style Scan
distance: 2mm~5mm Initial scan position: scan from the occlusal surface, and
parallel to the occlusal surface, scan along the
curvature of the dental arch NoticeWhen starts to scan, the probe is facing
the occlusal surface, do not tilt the probe to scan the data! Scanning path:
occlusal surfacetip of tongue/tongue surfacetip of cheek/lip
surfacecompensation of scan gap Scanning steps 1 Place the scanning head
directly on the posterior occlusal surface and start scanning. 2 When reaches
the position of No. 3 tooth, the probe is tilted to the labial and cheek side,
and the labial data and incisional data of the anterior teeth are collected at
the same time. After crossing the midline, the probe slowly turns to the
palatal side to collect lingual/palatal data, and from the palatal side to the
opposite side, collect data on the contralateral commissure until the
posterior teeth. Turn to the tongue/palate side to collect the palate side.
Turn to the buccal side and collect data on the buccal side. After reaching
the midline, take this product out of the mouth and place it on the opposite
posterior occlusal surface. After repositioning, turn to the buccal side
slowly to collect the buccal data completely.
28
PANDA P2 Operation Manual
Notice: -Clean up saliva and blood stains before scanning -When scans the
front teeth of the upper and lower jaw, the lips need to be opened -When scans
the lip and tongue side, it is necessary to cover the cutting end data to
avoid repeated scanning of the same position Bite scanning: When scans the
occlusion, you need to scan 1 to 2 occlusal points to determine the occlusal
relationship. When scanning the occlusion, if it is a full mouth, you can scan
an occlusal point on the left and right cheeks; if it is a half mouth, you can
scan an occlusal point directly. The patient clenches the upper and lower jaws
(doing swallowing movements) and keeps them still; Place the probe on the
buccal side of the patient, slowly move forward in an “S”-shaped path between
the upper and lower jaws, take 4 teeth, and match the upper and lower jaws;
then click the “S” button to pause and switch to the second bite point, move
forward slowly in an “S”-shaped path between the upper and lower jaws, take 4
teeth, and click Enter to finish the upper and lower jaws. Point switch: After
scanning one bite, pause the scan and switch to the second bite point.
Switching bite point can be realized by quick “P”. Planting scan: When the
selected treatment plan scan plan is implant, there will be two types as shown
in the figure below in the dental jaw selection area: dental jaw scan and scan
bar scan.
– Implant working jaw: first remove the healing cap and scan the working jaw
where the cuff is located. – Implant scan body: put on the scan body, and then
only need to scan the data of the scan body completely,

Step 1 Click the “Align” button to enter the alignment interface. Step 2 After
selecting “Upper jaw “, use the three-point alignment method or click “Align”
directly. Step 3 After selecting “lower jaw”, use the three-point alignment
method or click “Align” directly. Step 4 Click the “check” button, and the
display area will display the bite data after alignment.
Note -Direct alignment: select the “Align” button on the right side of the
upper and lower jaw for automatic alignment. – Three-point alignment: select
three points with obvious features in the corresponding place between the
current data and the standard data, click the “Align” button for alignment.
The “Reset” button can clear the selected points.
Distance After the alignment, click “Distance” to calculate the occlusal
distance and show the result. As is shown
below, the left side is the rainbow diagram for distance reference, and the
middle zone is the calculated results of the two jaws.
The darker the occlusal area is, the smaller the occlusal distance is. The
lighter the occlusal area is, the larger the occlusal distance is. When the
occlusal area is dark blue, it indicates that the distance is negative.
39
PANDA P2 Operation Manual
When there is no rainbow picture distribution in the occlusal face, it
indicates that the occlusal distance between the upper and lower jaw in this
area is greater than that of 2mm.
When it is found that the occlusion relationship of the scanned data is
significantly different from the actual occlusion state, you can use the
“Adjust” button to automatically optimize the occlusal jaw.
The occlusion relationship could be looked over by adjusting the Max distance.
Double-click to separate the upper and lower jaw to see the distance, as is
shown below, double click again to restore the occlusal state.
Distance Choose two arbitrary points and measure the distance between them.
