Advanced Dental Technology for Better Care
At SmileCross Dental, we are passionate about using the latest dental technology to improve oral health outcomes in our community. With new innovations in scanning and imaging, it's easier than ever to get a complete picture of your teeth and gums without invasive procedures. Here's a closer look at the technology we use in our office.
Digital X-Rays
Digital X-rays provide a faster, safer and more detailed way for our dentists to diagnose and monitor oral health issues.
This advanced technology uses significantly less radiation compared to traditional X-rays while delivering clear, high-resolution images almost instantly. It allows for early detection of cavities, bone loss, and other concerns, helping ensure timely and effective treatment.
Intraoral Camera
An intraoral camera captures high-resolution images inside your mouth, which makes detecting issues and explaining treatment options easier.
These detailed images are displayed on a screen in real time, allowing you to see exactly what your dentist sees. This improves communication, builds trust, and helps you better understand your oral health and recommended treatments.
Cone Beam Computed Tomography
Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) provides 3D imaging that gives dentists a detailed view of your teeth, jaw, nerves and sinuses for more precise diagnosis and treatment planning.
This technology is especially useful for complex procedures such as dental implants, extractions, and orthodontics. With its comprehensive view, it enhances accuracy and allows for safer, more predictable outcomes.
3Shape Intraoral Scanner
Rather than using traditional molds, an intraoral scanner creates 3D images of your teeth and gums without the discomfort.
This digital approach eliminates messy impressions and provides a faster, more comfortable experience for patients. The precise scans also improve the fit and accuracy of restorations like crowns, bridges, and aligners.
Soft Tissue Laser
A soft tissue laser allows our dentists to perform gum treatments with greater precision, less discomfort and faster healing times.
It minimizes bleeding and reduces the need for sutures, making procedures more comfortable and efficient. Patients often experience quicker recovery and less post-treatment sensitivity compared to traditional methods.
3D Printer
A 3D printer allows us to create custom dental appliances quickly and accurately in the office, so you don't have to come back for another appointment.
This technology streamlines the treatment process by reducing turnaround times and improving precision. It enables the creation of high-quality, customized solutions such as night guards, models, and other dental appliances with greater efficiency.
