The article is a tip used for an intraoral scanner which is a device for scanning a three-dimensional shape of an interior of an oral cavity mainly in dental treatment; the article can be detached from the intraoral scanner; the claimed portion of the article is a portion with which a finger of a user (e.g. a dentist) comes into contact; also, the shape of the claimed portion is substantially flat; as such, the user can recognize the orientation of the tip of the intraoral scanner by touch of the finger without looking directly at the intraoral scanner; the parts shown in dotted lines do not form part of the claimed design; the broken lines having alternating long and short segments define bounds of the claimed design and form no part thereof.
