Dental Technology
Dental technology is constantly advancing, helping dentists create healthy, happy smiles for all their patients. At Dr. Dove Dental Office, we use several pieces of dental technology to ensure our patients’ health and well-being.
CBCT Scanner
Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scanners create detailed images of the mouth and facial area. They are used in many areas of dentistry such as implant planning, endodontics, and oral pathology making them a safe and accurate way to diagnose issues.
iTero Scanner
An iTero scanner is a piece of dental technology that provides a detailed digital impression of your teeth in seconds. This is typically used when creating custom-made appliances such as mouth guards and clear aligners.
Intraoral Scanner
An intraoral scanner is a handheld device used to create an efficient and accurate digital impression of your teeth. These scanners provide accurate 3-D models of your teeth in real time, eliminating the need for uncomfortable plaster moulds.
Dental Lasers
Dental lasers have a number of uses. Most commonly, they are used to perform biopsies to diagnose oral cancer and to clean out infected pulp during a root canal. They can also be used to whiten teeth, treat gum disease, and treat hypersensitivity.
