Nexus iOS, a fully-digital full-arch solution, creates an end-to-end prosthetic journey from the first scan to the final patient arch.
Complete digital full-arch, no verification jig
Nexus iOS is a fully-digital full-arch solution, forming an end-to-end prosthetic journey from the first scan, to the final patient arch. Nexus iOS requires only a validated intraoral scanner and a Nexus Scan Gauge Kit.
The search for an accurate method of full-arch implant capture has been a continual point of debate amongst implant dentistry professionals, particularly in relation to intraoral scanning (IOS).
New technologies adapted to the dentistry field like photogrammetry have sought to solve these challenges, however, they often carry significant investment and offer just one part of the puzzle. Nexus iOS utilises existing IOS technology with a proprietary and patented novel horizontal scan-body, known as a Scan Gauge.
What is the outcome of using Nexus iOS?
A series of intraoral scans and patient photographs are performed to attain digital references of the patient’s implant positions, bite and aesthetic considerations. The implant scans are checked chairside using Nexus Connect to ensure they are accurate and have been performed correctly.
Next, data is simply uploaded to the Nexus online cloud platform, and a titanium bar-retained prosthesis is ordered. Design considerations including tooth shade, gingiva colouring, distal cantilever and more are all taken into account during ordering.
After submission, a digital design is created – the clinician receives back a 3D approval of the tooth setup in relation to the patient’s photograph for aesthetic reference. Using the online portal, all design changes are made until the clinician is happy with the setup.
A 3D-printed try-in is available before going to the final manufacture of the permanent appliance, this provides peace of mind to visualise aesthetics and function for the clinician and patient.
Nexus iOS’ was developed by industry-leading implant prosthetic manufacturer, Osteon Medical headquartered in Melbourne, Australia with a North American production facility located in Irvine, California.
