You can check by entering the Omnicam’s serial number (not to be confused with the AC serial number) into Dentsply Sirona’s database located here. Some of the 2012-2013 production year Omnicam ACs do not have Shade Guide compatible cameras. The ability of the Omnicam camera to detect the tooth shade while scanning was a new feature introduced with CEREC 4.5.2 software. The biggest consideration is whether or not the Omnicam camera is Shade Guide compatible. You will see a few hardware changes such as an updated processor or graphics card(s), but a 2012 Omnicam is by and large the same machine as a 2018 model. Generally speaking, Omnicam ACs don’t change a whole lot year over year. I am also going to break the answer into two parts: the Omnicam Acquisition Center and the milling unit. In order to provide a “simple-ish” answer, I am going to exclude Redcam and Bluecam from consideration. There are so many considerations that it makes an apples to apples comparison quite difficult. This is by far the most common question I field in my line of work and is a simple question with a complicated answer.
