Intraoral Scanner

Revolutionizing Dental Impressions

An intraoral scanner is a state-of-the-art digital tool used in modern dentistry to capture highly accurate 3D images of a patient’s mouth. This handheld device replaces traditional impression materials with a quick, comfortable, and precise scanning process.

What It Does:

• Digital Imaging: The scanner captures detailed, real-time images of your teeth and gums, creating a comprehensive 3D model of your oral anatomy.
• Comfort and Convenience: Unlike traditional impressions that use messy materials, the intraoral scanner provides a comfortable experience, reducing the need for retakes and improving patient satisfaction.
• Precision and Speed: It delivers highly accurate results swiftly, allowing for precise planning and design of restorations, such as crowns, bridges, and aligners.
  Enhanced Workflow: The digital images integrate seamlessly with computer-aided design (CAD) systems, streamlining the process for both diagnosis and treatment.

Digital X-ray

In the past, most dental professionals had to use the traditional x-ray systems, which require film development. These days, we use digital x-rays due to their many benefits. A digital x-ray is safer and much quicker than its film predecessor. If the image comes out blurry, we can instantly retake a new one. Digital x-rays are a crucial diagnostic tool that helps us gain a better understanding of the inner workings of your mouth, more specifically the teeth, roots, and alveolar bone.

Same Day Crowns

Dr. Flores understands how valuable your time is, which is why we offer same-day dental crowns. This means we can prepare your tooth, take an impression, and fabricate your restoration, all within a single appointment.

Traditional dental crowns typically require multiple appointments for multiple procedures. The data we capture with our intraoral wand is wirelessly transferred to our computer system. We then use CAD/CAM software to design your crown “chairside” as you watch in real-time. Next, this information is sent to our milling unit, which transforms a single block of porcelain into your aesthetically-pleasing restoration.

3D Imaging

3D imaging gives Dr. Flores a more comprehensive overview of your teeth and gum tissues. This allows us to better diagnose any potential problems and determine the next step in an effective treatment plan. We may utilize 3D imaging for cosmetic or restorative purposes, orthodontic treatment, and dental implants.

Cone Beam CT Scan

A cone beam CT scan is a diagnostic tool that produces a 3D representation of your teeth, gums, nerve pathways, and underlying bone structure within a single image. We typically utilize cone beam CT scans when a regular x-ray is not enough. Cone beam CT scans are ideal for surgical planning, the diagnosis of TMJ disorders and tumors, and the evaluation of bone structure and tooth orientation.
