Only 6 months after its launch, Primescan 2 sets yet another new standard in intraoral scanning and further drives the industry into the era of cloud-powered connected dentistry with enhanced performance and new features—such as the Primescan 2 cart, caries detection functionality1 and a significant reduction in internet requirements

Dentsply Sirona continues to drive innovation in digital dentistry by presenting major enhancements to its Primescan 2 at IDS 2025. Only six months after the initial introduction of Primescan 2, the first cloud-native intraoral scanning solution has already evolved significantly, leveraging the power of the cloud. With an emphasis on seamless connectivity, faster workflows, and smarter integrations, Primescan 2 takes its own intraoral scanning capabilities to the next level.

Pioneering the Future of Intraoral Scanning with Next-Level Enhancements

  • Integrated Caries Detection1: Featuring advanced near-infrared and fluorescence technologies, complementing conventional methods to help clinicians effectively identify and successfully treat caries, and help patients better understand their treatment needs via DS Core.
  • Optimized Smart Compression2: Cutting bandwidth requirements by up to 50%3 and making Primescan 2 more accessible without additional infrastructure and therefore simplifying installation procedures.
  • Faster SureSmile® Simulations: The automatic initiation of tooth segmentation and smile simulation right after taking a Primescan 2 treatment scan reduces calculation times by up to 90%4, allowing for a more efficient patient consultation.

Dentsply Sirona also introduces new accessories for Primescan 2, designed to improve both scanning experience and patient engagement:

  • Primescan 2 Cart5: Featuring a slim, ergonomic design for smooth mobility and a smart display for effortless patient communication, allowing dental professionals to tailor the scanner solution to their specific needs. With a wireless connection, a cart battery and a built-in charger for the scanner batteries, the Primescan 2 Cart is always scan-ready, delivering a seamless experience personalized to the needs of dental professionals.
  • Multi-Use Steel Sleeve6: Enabling durability, sustainability, and optimal hygiene for long-term use, with high-level disinfection (HLD) capabilities for enhanced patient safety. Designed to fit the individual needs of each practice, Primescan 2 offers versatile hygiene solutions to protect against contamination risks with a choice of multi-use but also single use sleeve.

Smoother, Smarter and More Intuitive

  • Regulatory Clearance7 for Canvas as a diagnostic viewer: Enabling Imaging customers to use DS Core for diagnose purposes.
