3D Imaging
What is 3D Imaging?
3D imaging creates highly detailed three-dimensional representations of your teeth, jaw, and surrounding structures, offering a level of detail that traditional 2D X-rays simply cannot. This advanced technology helps us diagnose and treat dental issues with unmatched precision. Visit our page on oral surgery services to see how we integrate 3D imaging for complex procedures.
Benefits of 3D Imaging:
- Enhanced diagnostic accuracy for complex cases
- Precise treatment planning for dental implants, orthodontics, and oral surgery
- Reduced radiation exposure compared to older CT scan methods
- Quick, non-invasive imaging process, making it easier for patients
Our Cone Beam CT scans provide a detailed 360-degree view of your dental and facial structures, enabling accurate planning for surgical procedures like wisdom teeth removal, bone grafting, and dental implants. This is a significant step forward in ensuring successful outcomes for even the most complex treatments.
Intraoral 3D Scanners
What are Intraoral 3D Scanners?
Intraoral 3D scanners capture precise digital images inside your mouth, creating a full 3D model without the need for messy traditional impressions. This technology streamlines the process for treatments such as cosmetic injectables, TMJ therapy, and sleep apnea services, ensuring more comfortable and accurate results.
Benefits of Intraoral 3D Scanners:
- High accuracy for custom dental appliances and treatment planning
- Comfortable and quick scanning process
