Our Technologies
We combine proven dental techniques with the latest technologies to provide quality care for all our patients. Our digital X-rays are much safer for patients and emit 80% less radiation than traditional X-rays. We also have intraoral cameras. These technologies allow us to detect changes in our patients’ mouths before small issues become major problems.
Our laser whitening equipment effectively whitens teeth without making them sensitive. We also have cutting-edge cancer-screening devices which can accurately detect oral cancers and get our patients the treatment they need sooner.
CBCT 3D Imaging
Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is 3D Imaging that allows a practitioner to evaluate osseous pathology, evaluate tooth / bone relationships, see locations of impacted teeth, and observe tooth and bone landmarks and anatomy. It’s widely used for evaluation of dental implants.
During dental/orthopedic imaging, the CBCT scanner rotates around the patient’s head, taking nearly 600 distinct pictures. Scanning software collects the data and reconstructs it, producing a three-dimensional anatomical image with data that can then be manipulated and visualized with specialized software.
iTero® Element™ Intraoral Scanner
The iTero Element Scanner is a state-of-the-art digital impression system that eliminates the need for messy putty in your mouth. With our iTero Element Scanner, we can digitally capture a detailed 3D model of your teeth and gums. Not only is this process far more comfortable than the old putty based impressions, but it’’’s faster and can offer a superior clinical endpoint.
- No goop or gag to worry about
- Fast, accurate impression
- Ideal for crowns, bridges, implants, and Invisalign® clear aligners and retainers
- See a simulation of your potential Invisalign treatment outcome
During the impression process, you can breathe or swallow as you normally would. You can even pause during the process if you need to sneeze or just want to ask a question. The scanner gives us a 3D model of your mouth that can be used for your dental services including the Invisalign Outcome Simulator to show you what your new smile might look like.
