Benefits of Dental Imaging

At Kayscreek Dental, we utilize 3D imaging and printing technology to offer accurate and precise dental care. Through 3D imaging, we get a detailed view of the patient’s mouth and use that information to create custom-crafted appliances. For example, 3D imaging can help Dr. Nelson to identify problems such as impacted teeth, misalignment, and other issues that may not be visible on traditional X-rays. Detailed imaging ensures you get the best possible fit and results.  

More Treatment Options: 3D imaging and printing technology have allowed us to offer a wide range of restorative and cosmetic treatments. We can create custom-crafted dental crowns, bridges, veneers, and other prostheses. 3D imaging also allows us to create digital models of the patient’s mouth, which we can use to design and fabricate custom aligners and braces.  

Accurate Diagnoses and Treatments: 3D imaging and printing technology allow us to provide our patients with a more comfortable and precise dental experience. 3D imaging allows us to diagnose problems and plan treatments precisely and accurately. With this technology, we provide faster, more pleasant, and more accurate treatments.  

Lifelike Restorations: 3D imaging and printing technology allow us to create more lifelike dentures, crowns, and bridges. Using 3D printing, we can create a model of your mouth and use that information to craft dentures that fit perfectly. Custom-created restorations are comfortable and offer a natural-looking smile that feels like yours.  

Custom Dental Implants: 3D imaging and printing technology allow us to create custom-crafted dental implants. Using 3D imaging, we can get a detailed view of your mouth and use that information to make an implant that fits perfectly. The imaging and technology ensure you get the best possible fit and results.

3D Printing

3D printing in dentistry is a rapidly growing field that uses 3D printing technology to create dental prosthetics, such as crowns, bridges, and implants. 3D printing offers a more precise and accurate method for dental prosthetics than traditional methods. It works by printing layer upon layers of material, such as plastics, resins, and metals, to form a 3D object. Using a computer-aided design (CAD) model created from a scan of the patient’s teeth, a 3D printer can create a precise dental prosthetic model.

Intra-Oral Scanner

An Intra-oral scanner is a digital scanning technology used in dentistry to create digital impressions of a patient’s mouth. We use these scanners to create 3D models of the teeth and other oral structures, which we also use for various treatments and procedures. Intra-oral scanners use a combination of light and laser technology to collect the information, which we upload for further analysis. The accuracy and speed of the scan are typically much higher than traditional methods, such as taking impressions with molds and plaster.  

Intra-oral scanners offer many advantages over traditional methods. They are extraordinarily accurate and capture the fine details of your oral structure. These details can be especially beneficial for diagnostic and treatment planning purposes. Additionally, the scans are much faster than traditional methods, resulting in less time in the dental chair for the patient. Furthermore, the scans are easily transferable to other dental professionals, allowing for more accurate communication and collaboration. Dr. Nelson can use the scans to create 3D models and digital prosthetics, which we can use to fabricate dental restorations such as crowns and bridges.
