DIGITAL IMAGING TECHNOLOGY

CUTTING-EDGE EQUIPMENT FOR CONVENIENT ORTHODONTIC CARE

UUtah Smiles focuses on providing effective orthodontic treatments in a shorter timeline and fewer appointments than standard solutions require. The technology at our practice in Murray helps us achieve this. We use advanced dental imaging to take detailed scans and digital impressions of your mouth. Focusing on this during your initial appointment helps us move forward with your treatment plan faster so you can enjoy a healthier smile quicker.

CARESTREAM SCANNERS

Our Carestream 9600 CBCT 3D Scanner generates remarkably vivid and precise 3D images of your dental and oral structures. Not only is it safe, but it also employs minimal radiation. The Carestream scanner enables us to accurately visualize all pertinent components, from teeth to the volume and density of your jawbone, leading to a prompt and comprehensive diagnosis and the identification of the optimal treatment plan for you.

ITERO DIGITAL IMPRESSIONS

We use digital impressions rather than traditional putty ones. With the iTero handheld wand, our team captures detailed 3D images of your teeth, stopping as needed. There is usually no need to perform a second scan. During the process, you can even look at the image appearing in real-time on the screen as we take the scan.

The iTero scanner also lets us electronically send the scanned 3D image to the lab rather than mailing them. This saves time and means you get your custom-designed orthodontic appliances more swiftly.

The benefits of digital teeth scanning include:

  • Less invasive than putty impressions

  • Superior accuracy without the risk of distortion due to patient movement, removal of impression, or disinfection
  • Detailed digital orthodontic scan in just a few minutes
  • Possible immediate adjustment thanks to the onscreen visualization

  • Increased patient comfort by eliminating the goop and gagging caused by putty impressions

  • Maximum cleanliness thanks to a single-use image shield

Precise impressions of your teeth are crucial for prompt treatment planning and effective orthodontic care. The iTero scanner delivers not only accuracy but also time efficiency for both our patients and our team.
