Why Technology Matters

Advanced technology means better outcomes, faster treatment, and a more comfortable experience for our patients.

  • Faster Treatment
    Digital technology streamlines every step, reducing overall treatment time.

  • Greater Precision
    Advanced imaging provides detailed 3D views for accurate diagnosis and planning.

  • Enhanced Comfort
    Digital scans eliminate uncomfortable traditional impressions and reduce radiation.

digital impressions

Digital impressions use advanced imaging technology to capture highly accurate models of your teeth without the discomfort of traditional molds. This modern approach allows your orthodontist to plan treatment with exceptional precision while giving you a faster, more comfortable experience.

CBCT & 3D imaging

advanced diagnostic capabilities

Our Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) with 3D Imaging technology provides incredibly detailed 3D images of your teeth, jaw, and facial structures. This advanced imaging system allows us to see what traditional 2D x-rays cannot reveal.

  • Complete 3D view of teeth, bone, and airways

  • Detailed analysis of jaw joint (TMJ) structure

  • Accurate assessment of impacted teeth

  • Airway analysis for sleep apnea screening

  • Precise treatment planning for complex cases

  • Lower radiation than traditional CT scans

  • Fast scan time with minimal patient discomfort

How we use this technology

Our advanced technology enhances every aspect of your orthodontic care.

Initial Diagnosis

Comprehensive 3D imaging reveals the exact position of teeth, roots, and bone structure for accurate treatment planning.

Planning for clear aligners & invisalign

iTero scans create precise digital models that ensure your Clear aligners & Invisalign fit perfectly and move teeth efficiently.

Impacted Teeth

CBCT imaging shows the exact location and orientation of impacted teeth, guiding safe and effective treatment.

TMJ Evaluation

Detailed 3D views of jaw joints help diagnose and plan treatment for TMJ disorders and bite issues.

Surgical Planning

For cases requiring surgery, 3D imaging provides surgeons with precise information for optimal outcomes.

Process Monitoring

Digital scans track treatment progress with precision, ensuring we stay on schedule and achieve ideal results.

Fewer Office Visits

In addition to shortening treatment times, the greater efficiency of the SureSmile system also helps reduce the number of wire changes and adjustments you’ll need, and that means fewer trips to the orthodontist. The SureSmile system’s 3-D software lets your orthodontist analyze how to effectively and efficiently align your teeth. Through this software, personalized arch wires are designed to move your teeth into proper alignment smoothly and directly, reducing the number of maintenance visits.
