More comfortable, and often more accurate than traditional impression methods.
What is a Digital Impression?
Traditionally, dental impressions are taken using a putty-like material that is placed in your mouth, which can sometimes be uncomfortable and messy.
Now, think of a digital impression as a high-tech version of that process. Instead of using putty, a small wand-like device with a camera is used to scan your teeth. This device captures detailed images of your teeth and gums from different angles and takes precise measurements.
These images are then put together by a computer to create a precise 3D model of your teeth and gums. This digital model can be used by the denturist to fabricate dentures or mouth guards. It’s more comfortable, and often more accurate than traditional methods. Plus, there’s no messy putty involved!
How Do Digital Impressions Benefit You?
Enhanced Comfort: With digital impressions, there’s no need for messy materials or uncomfortable trays. Our gentle and non-invasive scanning process ensures a comfortable experience for even the most sensitive mouths.
Unmatched Accuracy: Digital impressions provide incredibly precise 3D models of your mouth, leading to better-fitting dentures and dental appliances. This accuracy translates to improved comfort, functionality, and aesthetics for your smile.
Archival Records: Digital impressions can be stored electronically, making them easily accessible and available to reproduce an existing appliance, as well as for future reference, to assist us in tracking changes in your oral health over time.
Eco-Friendly: By eliminating the need for traditional impression materials, digital impressions help reduce waste and promote sustainability. This is part of our commitment to preserving the environment while supporting you in achieving optimal oral health.
