Digital Models
Our office uses the most state-of-the-art technology available to help create the smile you want, which is why we use digital models. Digital modeling allows us to create three-dimensional digital model of your teeth, which help us keep you informed of your treatment options and progress, while also providing you with optimal results. After we create a personalized treatment plan that meets your specific needs and desires, digital models allows us to create customized bracket trays that lets us place your brackets all at one time, with increased efficiency and overall effectiveness.
Some benefits of digital models over traditional study model materials include:
- Accuracy: they require fewer appointments.
- Efficiency: they require less time in the treatment chair.
- Customizability: they provide a digital plan and allow for trays that are tailored to meet the individual needs and desires of each patient.
- Visualization: they provide each patient with a definite picture of what their teeth will look like following treatment.
- Innovation: they use the most advanced 3-D video technologies.
Digital X-rays
We offer one of the latest technological advances in dentistry with digital radiography (X-rays). A wireless sensor is placed in the mouth, and a computer generates an image in 30 seconds as opposed to the general 4-6 minute wait time for images taken on dental film. These X-rays can also be enhanced on the computer and enlarged.
Not only are they friendly to the environment, they are much safer than traditional X-rays. Digital radiographs reduce radiation exposure by 90 percent!
Digital Photography
We are proud to utilize the latest technology available to ensure our patients enjoy the best results. We use high-resolution digital photography to capture detailed images of your mouth, thus enabling us to maintain sharp, accurate records and keep you thoroughly informed of your treatment progress.
