You should try the trios 4 with the move configuration

Great video Dr.! I'm a few years late in this, but with your experience over the past few years, do you still feel the same about both? We do Invisalign but I like the C&B of Trios better, so deciding between iTero and Trios3 as in Canada we can submit to Invisalign with the Trios3.

How is the accuracy of the iTero vs Trios for crowns? If we can only pick one but we want to offer clear aligners is it more sensible to go with the iTero?

[@austindentist]

If you want to do clear aligners, Invisalign makes the best product and iTero is best to work with them. I like the Trios best for crowns because you can easily trim small sections to rescan and you can flip the image to see the margins clearer. My lab prefers the iTero because Align cleans up the scan before sending it to the lab. I have both and use both. The Trios tip is smaller and more comfortable for patients but the iTero is great for assessing the bite and changes over time.

Great comparison, are you using trios now? I'm an RDA in Austin, I'd love to talk.

[@austindentist]

I use both depending on the situation.
