Abstract

The last decades were characterized by rapid progress in the introduction of new digital technologies in the field of prosthetics. The intraoral scanning systems are data acquisition devices which make it possible to make precise prosthetic structures, to identify 
carious lesions, orthodontic anomalies. This article analyzes modern trends in the field of newly developed intraoral scanning technologies published in scientific journals in recent years. It summarizes the information provided by various databases: PubMed, ResearchGate, Google Scholar and on the internet sites of manufacturing companies. As a result, a historical review was made with a focus on the development of intraoral scanning systems and their characteristics, advantages and disadvantages were thoroughly discussed.
