Advanced Dental Technology – Fort Worth, TX
Modern-Day Dental Care Made Easy
Much has changed in the field of dentistry in the last 30, 40, and even 50 years. This is especially true when it comes to technology. Although many dental professionals continue to rely on traditional techniques and equipment to produce long-lasting results, the truth is that newer inventions are now available, making patient experiences more comfortable and enjoyable. At Care 32 Dental of Fort Worth, our team uses the following advanced dental technology in Fort Worth to ensure greater accuracy and precision so that you and your family can walk away with healthier, more vibrant smiles.
How Technology Makes Our Dentistry Better
- Putty-Free Digital Dental Impressions for Restoration Creation
- Real-Time Viewing for Patients with Intraoral Cameras
- Comprehensive, 360-Degree Scans for Accurate Treatment Planning
3D iTero Scanner
When it comes to developing customized restorations (i.e., dental crowns, veneers, dentures, etc.), our 3D iTero Scanner is highly effective and easy to use. Capable of capturing high-resolution images that are far more detailed than regular X-rays, this device eliminates the need for cold, messy dental putty. Instead, we can insert the handheld wand into the mouth to scan teeth and gums, creating a three-dimensional model that is projected onto a nearby computer monitor. Once the visual scan is available to view, our dental team can make necessary adjustments before sending the model off to lab technicians for restoration creation.
This device also aids in giving patients a sneak peek of what their proposed treatment will look like when finished.
Intraoral Camera
Patients no longer need to remain unaware of what is going on inside their mouth. Instead, with the help of an intraoral camera, we can show you and your family in real-time problem areas that may be present and require treatment. Showing you what needs to be done minimizes confusion and allows for greater clarity and understanding when it comes to patient education. With intraoral cameras, we can better engage you and your loved ones so that you know what you need to do to maintain a healthy smile.
Digital Dental X-Rays
Digital X-rays are now commonly found in many dental offices throughout the United States. Emitting far less radiation (up to 90%) and producing higher-resolution images, our team can better analyze problem areas before fabricating a treatment plan that addresses your smile needs. With digital dental X-rays, we can detect cavities, gum disease, and other similar oral health issues early on, keeping them from spreading and causing more damage over time.
CBCT Scanner
Stepping up to this device might seem a bit daunting, but the truth is that our CBCT scanner is painless and completed in just seconds. Using its 360-degree arm to rotate around your head, it takes hundreds of photos of your head and oral structures so that appropriate analysis and treatment planning can occur. Combining the images into one 3D model, our dentists can make notes about the current location of nerves and blood vessels while also evaluating the state of your teeth, gums, and jawbone density. This allows us to better plan for dental implants, root canal treatment, tooth extractions, and more.
