At Natural Smiles Family Dentistry, we use technology to improve the care we provide for our patients. Here are some of the ways we use the latest in modern dentistry to make your visit successful, comfortable, and streamlined.
Digital X-Rays and Sensors
Digital x-rays are a necessary part of a full dental exam as they allow us to see things like cavities, infections, bone loss, and other conditions that are otherwise impossible to see with the naked eye. Using minimal radiation, digital x-rays provide detailed images of your teeth, gums, and jawbone, allowing for early detection of problems. Digital x-rays are safe and play an essential role in maintaining your overall oral health.
Digital Workflow
At Natural Smiles Family Dentistry, we take great pride in utilizing a fully digital workflow to enhance the quality and efficiency of your dental care. This advanced technology allows us to provide precise, efficient treatments that not only save you time but also ensure a more comfortable experience throughout your visit. From the moment you schedule an appointment to completing your health history and forms, our digital system streamlines the entire process, making it faster and more convenient for you.
The benefits of digital workflow extend beyond patient convenience. Using digital imaging and records can reduce the need for physical paperwork, minimize energy consumption, and decrease unnecessary waste. This eco-friendly approach contributes to a more sustainable and cost-effective dental practice while maintaining the highest standards of care.
Additionally, digital tools enable us to create highly accurate treatment plans and restorations. Whether it’s digital impressions for crowns, bridges, or other dental work, the precision of our technology ensures better-fitting, longer-lasting results. This allows us to provide faster, more effective solutions, making your dental experience smoother and more successful. At Natural Smiles Family Dentistry, our commitment to innovation helps us deliver the best care possible while prioritizing your health, comfort, and satisfaction.
Digital Impressions/Intraoral Scanning
We use intra-oral scanning technology to take digital impressions of your mouth. Intraoral scanners are a leading-edge technology used to capture detailed, digital images of your teeth and gums. Unlike traditional impressions, which can be uncomfortable and messy, intraoral scanners provide a quick, precise, and comfortable experience.
The handheld device creates high-resolution 3-D images of your mouth, which can be instantly displayed on a screen, allowing your dentist and you to assess your oral health more accurately.
These digital impressions are used for a variety of procedures, including crowns, bridges, clear aligners, and other restorations. Intraoral scanning eliminates the need for traditional impression materials, making your visit more pleasant…No more goop!
