Advanced Tech in Summerlin Smiles

iTero

This new method is designed to replace the uncomfortable and traditional method of clinical impression taking. Powered by proprietary imaging technology, iTero enables the dentist to take a digital scan of the patient's teeth and bite, make any necessary adjustments in real-time, and then transmit the file digitally.

The digital scan is, quite literally and digitally perfect. This level of precision virtually eliminates the need to reimpress patients and renders remakes a thing of the past.

Digital scans are the next level of technological advancements for Invisalign. iTero ensures a more accurate record from the start which results in improved orthodontic treatment. An accurate impression of the mouth digitally is the foundation required for effective treatment planning and orthodontic care. This procedure is also one of the most simple and painless procedures involved in daily orthodontic therapy.

Digital X-rays

Digital x-rays are a modern alternative to old-fashioned X-rays. These are computer-based systems producing virtually instant pictures of excellent quality on the computer monitor. The image is large and can be manipulated in a variety of ways. This aids in offering a better diagnosis which can result in better treatment outcomes. They are also useful in helping our patient better understand their dental situation. Most importantly, digital X-rays greatly reduce the amount of radiation emitted, exposing you to 90% less radiation than traditional X-rays.

Intra-Oral Camera

"Smile" you're on TV. Advances in dentistry have led to the development of very small video cameras for use in the dental office. Using a camera about the size of a pen, we can take pictures inside the mouth and display them on the monitor 10-40 times their natural size! This technology allows you to see exactly what the dentist or hygienist sees and aids in better diagnosis and communication. Being able to view decay, gum disease, and other possible dental problems helps patients make informed decisions about their dental condition.
