Abstract:The intraoral scanners allow to be used in restorative or prosthodontic dentistry with several advantages such
as time efficiency, better patient satisfaction and accurate digital impression of small area. With the development of the
full-arch digital impression recorded intraorally, the intraoral scanners may be highly promising for digital orthodontic
workflows gradually. In the clinical application of orthodontics, different brands of intraoral scanners are mainly evaluated by
accuracy, operation time, patient acceptance and other indicators. Sophisticated impression is a prerequisite for the orthodontic
treatment. Therefore, the accuracy is the key to the success of digital impression. The common dental digital impression
instrument in orthodontic clinic was introduced, and the application effect of digital impression instrument in orthodontics
from the aspects of accuracy, scanning time and patient acceptability was reviewed in this paper.
