3D Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT)
CBCT offers a three-dimensional view of the oral and maxillofacial region, allowing for deeper insight into structures that standard x-rays can’t capture. This advanced imaging is especially useful for full-arch dental implants, orthodontics, and airway assessments. It supports careful planning and confident, precise care.
- Detailed imaging power: Produces high-resolution 3D scans of bone, nerves, and sinuses.
- Better planning: Assists in surgical guides, implant placement, and airway evaluations.
- Lower exposure: Uses less radiation than hospital-grade CT scans.
- Efficient workflow: Helps reduce guesswork and streamline clinical decisions.
Digital Scanning Technology
Digital scanners replace traditional impressions with a more accurate and comfortable alternative. These handheld devices map the shape of your teeth and bite with excellent precision. The result is a smoother treatment process and better-fitting restorations or appliances.
- Precision fit: Captures detailed digital impressions for improved outcomes.
- Greater comfort: No trays, no mess, just quick, touchless scanning.
- Faster turnaround: Enables faster collaboration with dental labs.
- Eco-friendly workflow: Reduces disposable waste and materials.
Digital X-Rays
Digital x-rays produce detailed diagnostic images with minimal radiation exposure. They allow dental care providers to detect cavities, bone loss, infections, and more, often before symptoms arise. Results appear instantly on-screen to support timely, informed treatment planning.
- Low radiation exposure: Up to 90% less than traditional film x-rays.
- Instant image access: View results immediately during your appointment.
- Easy sharing: Facilitates coordination with specialists if needed.
- Improved clarity: Provides sharp images for accurate diagnostics.
Intraoral Cameras
Intraoral cameras show a magnified view of your teeth and gums on a screen in real time. This lets both the provider and the patient better understand oral health conditions. It also helps document and track changes over time.
- Enhanced diagnosis: Reveals cracks, decay, and gum issues with clarity.
- Patient empowerment: Increases understanding and trust in the care process.
- Record keeping: Supports insurance documentation and treatment planning.
- Small and comfortable: Reaches all areas without causing discomfort.
Laser-Based Treatments
Laser dentistry offers a gentler alternative for treating soft tissues. It’s commonly used for periodontal therapy, among other procedures. Patients often experience less bleeding, faster healing, and minimal discomfort.
- Minimally invasive: Replaces scalpels and sutures in many procedures.
- Quicker healing: Encourages natural tissue recovery.
- Less discomfort: Often requires little or no anesthesia.
- Versatile use: Ideal for gum contouring and soft tissue care.
