Autonomous Dual-Arch Intraoral Scanner · In Development

Both arches.
One pass.

DITOXO is an autonomous dual-arch intraoral scanner. The patient bites once; every optical module fires in a single synchronized event — capturing both arches and their true bite relationship in seconds, with on-device AI reconstruction. No sweep, no stitching.

Conventional scanning sweeps a wand and weaves thousands of frames. DITOXO holds every sensor in a fixed geometry and fires them at once — so both arches, and the bite, are recorded in a single synchronized event.

The problem

Swept, sequential capture rebuilds the model — and the occlusal relationship — in software from many frames and a separate bite scan, accumulating error at every step.

The approach

A rigid frame fixes multiple optical modules in a calibrated relationship. A single trigger captures both arches simultaneously, bite-stabilized, in one shared coordinate frame.

The result

A pre-aligned dual-arch dataset with the occlusion measured, not estimated — reconstructed on-device in seconds, hands-free.

The platform

One synchronized event. Everything captured at once.

DITOXO replaces the swept wand with a fixed optical array on a rigid frame. The patient bites; every module fires together; the geometry does the aligning that software used to fight for.

A different approach

A fundamentally different approach to intraoral capture — designed to do in one synchronized event what conventional scanners reconstruct in software, frame by frame.

Protected by pending U.S. patents A novel dual-arch architecture.
01

Simultaneous dual-arch capture

A single synchronized trigger fires every optical module in the same instant, so both arches are recorded together — never swept, never stitched frame-by-frame.

02

Fixed-geometry optical array

Multiple modules ride a rigid frame in a calibrated spatial relationship, engineered for micron-level dimensional stability across the intraoral temperature range.

03

Measured occlusion, not estimated

Because all modules share one coordinate frame from the first frame of data, the occlusal relationship is measured directly rather than reconstructed from a separate bite scan.

04

Hands-free, guided capture

Real-time midline, arch-trace, and occlusal-plane guidance positions the device; capture fires automatically once a stable bite is detected.

05

On-device edge AI reconstruction

A 3D model is built on the device in seconds with no network required; an optional cloud path adds higher-fidelity reconstruction when connectivity is available.

06

Single-use sterile optics

A disposable optical sleeve with saliva isolation, capture channels, anti-fog airflow, and one-handed removal — over an autoclave-compatible housing.

Inside the device

A fixed array, fired as one.

Optical modules sit on a horseshoe frame facing both arches, with an anterior module closing the front. Tap a region to see how the geometry captures everything in a single synchronized event.

Why one pass

Stitching is the cost. We remove it.

A traditional wand builds a model by weaving thousands of frames together in real time — and that weaving is where the heavy compute load and the accuracy drift come from. It happens again to relate the two arches. DITOXO captures inside a fixed geometry, so alignment is solved once, in hardware.

Traditional wand

Capture, then weave

Sweep the wand to capture thousands of individual depth frames
Register every frame against the growing model, in real time
Re-optimize the whole frame network to fight accumulating drift
Fuse the overlapping point clouds into one mesh
Bite scan taken separately to relate the two arches
Reconstruct the occlusal relationship in software
// Heavy real-time compute
// Error accumulates along the sweep
// Path- & operator-dependent results
DITOXO single pass

Aligned at capture

One trigger fires every module inside a calibrated, bite-stabilized frame
Both arches arrive in one shared coordinate frame
Assemble pre-aligned data — no iterative stitching chain
Measure the occlusal relationship directly
// Light, bounded on-device compute
// No cumulative drift chain
// Deterministic, largely operator-independent
The work shifts from aligning data to assembling data that's already aligned — registration becomes calibration.
One architecture, four sizes

From primary dentition to large adult arches.

Every size shares identical optics, sensors, and software. Changing size requires no recalibration and no configuration — the same workflow, end to end.

Clinical

Two scans and a bite — or one pass.

The conventional workflow scans each arch separately and reconstructs the occlusion. DITOXO is designed to collapse that into a single, measured acquisition.

A unified dual-arch mesh designed to flow into restorative design and chairside or lab milling workflows.

Orthodontics

A measured inter-arch relationship to support treatment planning, aligner workflows, and progress comparison.

Implantology

Multi-angle capture of scan bodies in a single event, designed to resolve implant position and angulation by photogrammetry.

Education & tele-dentistry

Consistent, repeatable captures with open-format output and secure sharing across teaching and remote workflows.

Partners

We're building DITOXO with the field, not in isolation.

Odonteikon is engaging clinical, commercial, and technology partners as the platform advances toward submission and launch.

Clinical advisors & sites

Practitioners and institutions shaping intended use, workflow fit, and future evaluation.

Distribution partners

Channel partners positioned to bring a cleared DITOXO line to dental markets.

Technology & strategic

Optics, AI/edge-compute, and manufacturing collaborators across the development pipeline.

Investors

A structural advantage, not a software tweak.

DITOXO captures both arches and their true relationship in a single synchronized event, reconstructed on-device — a fixed-geometry approach that's hard to replicate with a swept wand, protected by pending IP and built for the established 510(k) pathway.

Differentiation

Single-pass, fixed-geometry capture

A calibrated optical array fired in one synchronized trigger, with on-device AI reconstruction — measuring the occlusal relationship rather than reconstructing it from a sweep.

Breadth

One platform, many markets

Restorative, orthodontic, implant, sleep-medicine, and pediatric workflows across four shared-architecture sizes — from a single device line.

Questions

Frequently asked.

An autonomous dual-arch intraoral scanner. The patient bites onto the device, and a fixed array of optical modules fires in a single synchronized event — capturing both arches and their bite relationship at once, then reconstructing a 3D model on the device.

A wand is swept across the teeth and weaves thousands of frames together in software, accumulating error and load — then relates the arches through a separate bite scan. DITOXO holds every sensor in a fixed, calibrated geometry and fires them together, so the data is aligned at capture and the bite is measured rather than estimated.

No. DITOXO is in active development and is being evaluated through the FDA 510(k) pathway. It has not been cleared or approved and is not available for sale or clinical use in the United States.

Capture is designed to take a few seconds, with an on-device 3D model produced shortly after. Output is designed for open mesh formats (STL / OBJ / PLY) and DICOM, flowing into CAD/CAM, PACS, lab, and practice systems. DITOXO Studio adds review, annotation, and secure sharing.
