Cone Beam CT Imaging
At Platinum Smiles Family Dentistry, we use advanced Cone Beam CT and digital impressions for top-notch diagnostics. One scan gives us detailed 3D images of your teeth, tissues, nerves, and bone structure, while digital impressions provide precise and comfortable scans for a complete view of your oral health. Cone Beam CT has many benefits over conventional X-rays, including:- Comprehensive view: In a single rotation, it records the whole oral and maxillofacial region.
- Accurate planning: Perfect for intricate processes such as orthodontics and dental implants.
- Less radiation: Compared to traditional CT scans, it emits up to ten times less radiation.
- Quick and comfortable: Complete the scan in 20–40 seconds without experiencing claustrophobic enclosures.
The Intra-Oral Scanner
Eliminate messy, uncomfortable dental impressions. Our advanced intraoral scanner and CT technology swiftly and accurately create digital imprints of your teeth and gums. This integration of digital dentistry ensures a more comfortable and accurate experience for capturing detailed impressions.
Our intra-oral scanning technology has the following advantages:
- Increased comfort: The impression material won’t make you gag.
- Time-saving: Digital scans deliver directly to dental labs and become available for evaluation quickly.
- Greater accuracy: Digital scans eliminate the distortion that traditional impressions might cause.
- Improved patient experience: During the scanning procedure, you may see your own teeth in real time on the screen.
Our advanced CT scanner and intraoral scanning technology are used for various procedures, including veneers, crowns, bridges, and Invisalign aligners. By significantly reducing radiation dose and improving accuracy, we achieve better-fitting dental work and more productive appointments.
Digital X-rays
At Platinum Smiles, we use digital X-rays and advanced CT exams for their benefits to our team and patients. This technology enhances image quality and allows for more accurate diagnostics, especially in complex cases.
- Less radiation: Digital X-rays use up to 90% less radiation than traditional film X-rays.
- Instant results: Digital images appear on our screens within seconds, allowing for rapid analysis.
- Enhanced imaging: For the best clarity in diagnosis, we can alter brightness, improve contrast, and zoom in.
- Eco-friendly: No chemicals are needed for processing, so there’s no harmful waste.
- Simple sharing: We can promptly forward digital photos to experts or insurance providers.
Our use of digital X-ray and ray beam technology ensures early detection and treatment of dental problems, often before they become noticeable or uncomfortable. This includes precise diagnostics for complex procedures such as root canals, ensuring timely and effective treatment.
