Digital full-arch scanning

No. ScanLogiQ is not a metrology instrument and it is not photogrammetry. It works with intraoral scans (IOS) and uses statistical comparison across multiple Data Sets to validate the consistency of digital data before manufacturing.

In practical terms, the system does not “correct” errors; it identifies inconsistent scans and guides the user towards repeating or correcting the scan to reduce the risk of silent errors in full-arch cases.

ScanLogiQ is designed for workflows using intraoral scans without being tied to a specific scanner brand. The key requirements are input-data quality and adherence to the recommended procedure.

No. ScanLogiQ is intended exclusively for full-arch workflows on Multi-Unit abutments (screw-retained abutment systems). Implant-level workflows are not the target indication.

For zygomatic cases, the system can be used only when the restoration is managed through compatible Multi-Unit abutments.

ScanLogiQ is currently described by the manufacturer for All-on-X / full-arch abutment-level workflow. The primary supported coronal platforms are:

• Nobel Multi-Unit Ø4.8
• Straumann® SRA Ø3.5 / Ø4.6
• Biomet 3i® Low Profile Ø4.8

Yes. The workflow is designed to generate outputs that can be used in mainstream digital processing and continue into standard CAD/CAM workflows.

The key benefit is that CAD receives not an “unchecked” full-arch scan, but a Data Set that has passed consistency validation within the workflow.

It matters greatly. Output quality depends on input-scan quality: “Good scanner → good mesh.”

ScanLogiQ can detect inconsistent data and help prevent a poor scan from being sent to the laboratory, but it cannot overcome the physical limits of IOS or incorrect scanning technique.

AssistLogiQ evaluates consistency statistically across the Data Sets. More validated scans increase confidence in the result because the system has more independent observations for averaging and drift detection.

The protocol acquires 4 scans. For a reliable result, at least 3 out of 4 must be green. Four out of four represent the highest level of accuracy and reliability within this workflow.

AssistLogiQ does not technically block continuation, but a reliable result requires at least 3 validated (green) scans out of 4.

• 1–2/4: the output is labelled DRAFT; it is intended for passive-fit verification / a test framework. Manufacturing the definitive restoration from DRAFT data is not recommended.
• 3/4: reliable data; the definitive restoration can be designed using the corresponding SLiQ CAD files.
• 4/4: data with the highest accuracy and reliability; the definitive restoration can be designed.

ScanLogiQ is presented by the manufacturer primarily for All-on-X / full-arch restorations. The downstream IPD workflow includes both MUA-level solutions and workflows on IPD abutments:

Reverse iQ is a scan marker intended for extraoral registration of a provisional restoration / existing suprastructure within the Reverse workflow.

The phrase “works with any scanned structure” refers to the geometry of the marker and the scanned suprastructure, not to bypassing platform compatibility or determining implant positions from an arbitrary bridge.

ScanLogiQ is designed as a real-time validated IOS workflow for Multi-Unit full-arch cases. In many clinics it can serve as a practical alternative without the need for additional hardware.

This is a It uses a different technological principle: ScanLogiQ validates repeated IOS Data Sets and is not a photogrammetric measuring device. IPD currently references external in-vitro studies reporting results comparable with photogrammetry / videogrammetry; however, the clinical indication must always be assessed for the specific case and workflow.

At present, we do not publicly publish a complete technical white paper containing all metrological metrics. Validation materials are being prepared.

For specific B2B decisions, we can provide the available information as part of a consultation on the indication and the individual case.

• Edentulous full-arch cases with a risk of stitching drift and insufficient reference features.
• Clinics that want real-time scan quality control before sending the case to the laboratory.
• Multi-visit workflows involving surgeon, restorative clinician and external laboratory, where the data need to be standardised.
• Provisional and remake workflows where occlusion, soft-tissue relationships and suprastructure position need to be preserved (Reverse iQ).

Data Set 4 closes the workflow by exporting validated outcome files. The ScanLogiQ result contains aligned meshes / an SLiQ alignment mesh linked to the corresponding IPD CAD files. The laboratory then selects the required prosthetic restoration within the supported CAD/CAM workflow.

Yes. Supported IPD restorative options include workflows on IPD Ti-bases with either a straight screw channel or ASC. The validated SLiQ alignment mesh is used in the corresponding CAD library; subsequent manufacturing and bonding of the zirconia restoration follow the relevant component IFU and bonding-system instructions.

Scan Flag iQ is the core of Data Set 2, and its four scans pass through the AssistLogiQ validation logic. Reverse iQ belongs to optional Data Set 3 and registers information from a provisional restoration, prototype, try-in or impression; it should not be confused with a second 3/4 validation of MUA position.

Compatibility is governed by the coronal prosthetic interface of the abutment, not the implant connection underneath. IPD confirms MUA solutions for Straumann Bone Level and Osstem TS III, and the 2026 catalogue links the new MUA AP to ScanLogiQ.

The available documentation does not, however, support a universal statement that “every IPD MUA reference works without exception”. We therefore verify the specific Classic/AP reference and the corresponding ScanLogiQ kit before use.

Not as a standard ScanLogiQ workflow. The manufacturer describes ScanLogiQ as an All-on-X / full-arch solution. This must be distinguished from the indication of the Multi-Unit abutment itself.

For conventional straight IPD Multi-Unit abutments, IPD states that they may be used for single and multiple-unit restorations. That fact alone does not extend ScanLogiQ to routine single-unit workflows.
