Overview: This article provides essential information for practices switching from a legacy scanner (such as 3Shape Trios) to the Dandy Vision system. To ensure a smooth transition and prevent data loss, follow these guidelines before setting up your new hardware.
System Database and Software Platform Changes
The Dandy Vision system operates on a completely separate software platform from the 3Shape TRIOS system software. After the system transition is complete, the dental practice will begin operations with a brand-new patient list within the Dandy Vision system software.
Dental practices will lose all access to the TRIOS Chairside software following the system transition.
The Dandy Vision system utilises an entirely separate patient database from the TRIOS system database.
Patient lists will not automatically transfer from the TRIOS system database to the Dandy Vision system database.
Historical TRIOS system scan data is completely unavailable within the Dandy Vision system software.
Understanding what you can and cannot do after switching to Dandy Vision is critical for workflow management.
|
You Can |
You Cannot |
|---|---|
| Submit new cases using the Dandy Vision scanner. | Submit scans captured (but not submitted) on your old scanner. |
| View historical submitted scans in the Dandy Portal. | Continue scanning an existing case started on a different wand. |
| Upload refab scans directly into the new Vision & Cart system. | Transfer "in-progress" scan data between systems. |
| Communicate with the lab on previously submitted orders. | Re-open unsubmitted Trios files within the Vision software. |
Workflow Limitations and Case Transfers
Dental practices cannot begin a patient scan on the TRIOS system and complete that same patient scan on the Dandy Vision system.
Patient scans and active, in-progress cases do not transfer between the TRIOS system and the Dandy Vision system.
The TRIOS system and the Dandy Vision system operate entirely independently of one another.
