Planmeca has made its Onyx intraoral scanner available for order, offering wired and wireless scanning options and direct integration with the company’s software platform.
Planmeca has announced that its Onyx intraoral scanner is now available for orders. Initially revealed at IDS 2025, the scanner is designed to capture digital impressions using high-tech optics and LED lighting for various clinical indications, including orthodontic cases.
Scanning Capabilities and Workflow
The Planmeca Onyx allows dental professionals to approach intraoral scanning by capturing data in any order and in multiple segments. The device supports both wired and wireless operation, enabling users to choose the setup that fits their clinical environment.
Scanning processes are performed directly within the Planmeca Romexis software platform, which provides tools for diagnostics, dental analyses, treatment planning, and patient communication. After an initial setup, the scanner can be moved between rooms and used on any Romexis workstation on the clinic network.
Digital Ecosystem Integration
As part of the Planmeca PULSE digital ecosystem, the Onyx scanner integrates with the company’s CAD/CAM systems. Scans captured with the device are immediately available on Romexis workstations for clear aligner consultations, restoration design, and treatment planning. The digital designs can then be transferred directly to Planmeca PlanMill milling units or the Planmeca Creo X 3D printer for manufacturing.
Development and Manufacturing
“With Planmeca Onyx, our goal was to create a scanner that adapts to the way clinicians work—not the other way around. We believe that Planmeca Onyx is an intraoral scanner that every dental practice deserves. Its flexibility, accuracy, and integration with Planmeca PULSE make it an exceptional choice for any modern dental practice,” says Pontus Degerlund, CAD/CAM director at Planmeca, in a release.
The scanner is manufactured at Planmeca’s production facilities in Finland and features continuously updated scanning software to support clinical use.
