June 2025 – Stuttgart, Germany – SHINING 3D proudly announces a dual milestone in its journey to advance global digital dentistry:
The Digital Dentistry Society (DDS) has officially certified the Aoralscan Elite, recognizing its excellence in intraoral scanning and integrated photogrammetry.
SHINING 3D has also been named a Gold Partner of DDS, joining an exclusive group of innovators shaping the future of digital dental care.
These recognitions validate SHINING 3D’s position as a leader in precision dental technologies and reflect its continued investment in education, research, and global collaboration.
“We are honored to be acknowledged by the DDS for both our technology and vision,” said Tao Li, CEO of SHINING 3D. “This certification and partnership reaffirm our mission to deliver efficient, intelligent, and accessible solutions for dental professionals worldwide.”
Aoralscan Elite IPG: Certified Innovation
At the center of this recognition is the Aoralscan Elite, SHINING 3D’s flagship scanner that uniquely combines intraoral scanning and video-based, patented photogrammetry in one device. This integration eliminates the need for separate equipment or manual data alignment and significantly enhances accuracy and speed, especially in full-arch, implant-supported restorations like All-on-X cases.
The DDS certification reflects a rigorous evaluation of the device’s clinical performance, with verified results of precision within 5 microns.
These metrics position Aoralscan Elite at the forefront of intraoral scanning systems, especially for demanding implant workflows.
Built on a Legacy of Innovation
With two decades of R&D excellence and over 590 patents, SHINING 3D has developed multiple proprietary technologies across intraoral and industrial 3D scanning. The company’s solutions are supported by ISO certifications (including ISO 13485 for medical devices), a CNAS-accredited metrology lab, and a commitment to reinvesting more than 20% of its annual revenue into research and development.
The company’s continued growth is fueled by strategic innovation across such things as chairside scanning and photogrammetry, cloud-based dental design, data management, integrated software, and hardware ecosystems.
A Global Vision, Shared with DDS
The DDS partnership reflects a shared commitment to elevating clinical care through validated technologies and trusted education. Joint initiatives between SHINING 3D and DDS will include:
· Collaborative clinical research
· Development of evidence-based protocols
· Expansion of educational programs for digital workflows
“Technology is only as powerful as the workflow it supports,” added Mr. Li. “That’s why we focus not only on innovation but also on integration – helping clinicians achieve better outcomes with less complexity.”
