[0010] The article is a disposable cover used to keep an intraoral scanner (a device for scanning a three-dimensional shape of an interior of an oral cavity mainly in dental treatment) hygienic when the intraoral scanner is used; a tip of the intraoral scanner can be detached and sterilized; on the other hand, the article may affect the accuracy of scanning if the article covers the tip of the intraoral scanner during the use of the intraoral scanner; in view of the above, the article is configured to cover portions other than the tip of the intraoral scanner; in addition, the intraoral scanner has air inlet openings and an air outlet opening in order to cool the intraoral scanner, and the article is configured such that the air inlet openings and the air outlet opening are not blocked during use; the article is transparent; the bottom view is omitted because it is mirror image of the top view; reproduction 1.7 is an enlarged partial cross-sectional view taken along the line A-A in reproduction 1.1 within the boundary of the line B-B in reproduction 1.1; reproduction 1.8 is a reference view showing the state in which the article is used with an intraoral scanner shown as broken lines; broken lines in reproduction 1.8 represent unclaimed environmental subject matter and form no part of the claimed design; the characteristic features of the design lie in the shape.
