Omnicam is a powder-free digital impression system.  I will often enhance the scanning field by neutralizing the significant reflective surfaces:

1. Transparent ceramics

2. HT e.max restorations

3. Shiny metal surfaces like gold

4. Titanium implant stock abutments

5. Thin incisal edges (particularly lower incisors)

6. Subgingival dentin margins

By neutralizing the shiny oral reflective surfaces, the streaming speed is greatly increased and protocol will facilitate easy margin drawing (improved margin clarity). This tutorial demonstrates how I neutralize shiny oral reflective surfaces. View video.
