Did you know we use advanced technology throughout the treatment process? For our patients, these advanced systems help with everything from the initial diagnosis to planning and implementing care. In today’s blog, your team at Brighton Family Dental Group talks about helping smile concerns with advanced technology in Brighton, MA! We can return your smile to a healthier and more beautiful state, and do so using advanced technology every step of the way.
Diagnosing Your Smile’s Concerns
Many of the tools we use can aid on the initial diagnostic portion of your visit. With digital x-rays, we can look into your teeth and beneath the gums to make a diagnosis and assess the presence and extent of issues like tooth decay, infection, and even periodontal disease. The system uses a fraction of the radiation that traditional x-rays require, and the images will be available instantly on chairside monitors, no need to wait for them to develop.
We also have intraoral scanners, which allow us to obtain pictures of your smile with precision. This advanced technology helps us diagnose issues like tooth decay, TMJ disorder, and even bruxism (teeth grinding). Again, this provides high-definition images to a chairside monitor instantly, so we can walk you through the diagnosis and discuss possible positions to any issue we may uncover.
Help with Digital Systems
Our team can also help with an iTero® digital scanner. With this advanced technology, we have a thin wand with a tiny digital camera at the end. We can then comfortably and quickly obtain images of your bite from multiple angles. The images are then combined into a digital impression, so we have an impression far more accurate than a traditional physical one. You don’t even have to bite down on a metal mold filled with gooey materials!
Being able to make digital impressions allows our team to design and craft custom Invisalign ® aligners, and to even plan extensive treatments, such as dental implant placement or wisdom tooth extraction. We can even plan custom restorations, such as crowns, or prosthetics like bridges and dentures.
