3D Printing<\/h2>\n

3D printing is revolutionizing the field of dentistry, offering a wide range of benefits for both patients and practitioners. This innovative technology allows for the creation of highly accurate<\/em><\/strong> and customized dental restorations, such as crowns, bridges, and dentures, directly from digital scans of a patient’s mouth. 3D printing also enables the production of surgical guides and models, enhancing precision and efficiency during complex procedures. By streamlining workflows<\/u><\/em> and reducing treatment time<\/u><\/em>, 3D printing ultimately improves the overall patient experience.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Digital Impressions<\/h2>\n

Digital impressions, aka 3D intraoral scanning is an amazing technology that captures a replica of the teeth and mouth<\/em>.\u00a0 A virtual model is created using a small wand, which can be used for a variety of dental needs<\/u>, such as crown restorations, implant planning, full mouth rehabilitation mockups, veneer design, clear aligner therapy simulations, and so much more!\u00a0 There is often no need for messy impressions<\/em><\/strong> that can be uncomfortable for some, especially those with a severe gag reflex. Also, we can correct an inaccuracy in the digital impression right there! This digital model allows us to keep your records on file easily and to work with the dental lab almost instantaneously.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

CBCT Technology<\/h2>\n

Our practice utilizes state-of-the-art<\/strong>, small volume cone-beam CT (computed tomography) technology that provides highly accurate, 3-D radiographic images for the diagnosis, planning and treatment of endodontic disease. This allows three-dimensional visualization of teeth, bone, sinuses and surrounding structures with minimal radiation to the patient, enabling a level of anatomical accuracy and patient care not possible with 2-D technologies (regular dental x-rays). With the addition of Vatech\u2019s CBCT\u00a0technology<\/u><\/strong> to our office, our practice is committed to providing innovative, high-quality, patient care.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Digital Dental X-rays<\/h2>\n

Digital radiography uses\u00a0a TINY sensor placed in the mouth acts like a miniature VCR camera with an x-ray sensitive chip, exposing you to much less radiation exposure<\/u><\/em> than with traditional x-ray techniques.<\/p>\n

The resulting highly detailed image of your mouth is almost instantaneously translated onto our computer screen, carrying with it all the conveniences of other digitized \/images. We can rotate it, magnify it, adjust it for contrast, and even color-code it for educational purposes. Because it helps our patients clearly understand the root issues behind their dental health, we\u2019re able to work together<\/strong> to determine the very best treatment options for each case.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

This wonderful technology allows you to relax in your chair while simultaneously observing real-time pictures<\/em><\/strong> of the inside of your mouth magnified beyond normal size on an adjacent computer monitor! Not only does this make it simple to see and understand what the doctor is telling you, but it also makes it simple for us to keep incredibly accurate records<\/u>, from one visit to the next.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
