With the Trios scanner, we no longer need to take goopy impressions of your teeth in order to create customized appliances or aligners. We can perform a quick scan and then send your scans directly to the dental laboratory. Advanced Trios scanners also allow dentists to identify dental issues, track the progress of treatments, and more. This fantastic new technology makes your dental experiences faster, more comfortable, and more convenient. 

Electric handpieces are advanced tools used for various procedures, such as drilling, cutting, and polishing teeth. Unlike traditional air-driven handpieces, electric handpieces are powered by an electric motor, which provides consistent and adjustable speed and torque. This results in smoother, quieter operation and greater precision, allowing dental professionals to perform delicate tasks more efficiently and with better control.

Individual x-rays are beneficial for identifying decay, infection, and many other dental conditions. Having a full-picture view is often helpful, and that’s where panoramic x-rays come in handy. Panoramic x-rays take a full-picture view of the teeth, bone, jaw joints, and other biological landmarks. These types of x-rays are helpful in planning oral surgeries, such as extractions and dental implant placement, as well as identifying tumors, cysts, and jaw joint problems.

Modern digital dental x-rays benefit patients in a number of ways: 

• Digital x-rays expose patients to considerably less radiation than conventional film x-rays.
• Digital x-rays require almost no time for development, reducing time spent waiting in the dental chair.
• Digital x-rays allow for incredibly precise and accurate images for timely diagnoses.
• Digital x-rays are securely stored in your digital file and can be securely sent to your insurance company or specialists, when necessary.

Because no chemicals are needed for developing and no space is needed for film storage, digital x-rays are better for the environment.
