Advanced Dental Technology Colorado Springs
State-of-the-Art Innovation Leads to Comprehensive Diagnostics
At Colorado Springs Complete Dentistry, we strive to remain at the forefront of technological changes. Recognizing the benefit these devices can provide when diagnosing a problem makes it possible for Dr. Patterson and our team to deliver more accurate and thorough guidance when preparing a treatment plan. From digital impressions and X-rays to intraoral cameras, we can now make it easier for individuals to be part of the dental process from beginning to end thanks to our advanced dental technology here in Colorado Springs.
Digital Dental Impressions
Patients no longer need to worry about sitting for prolonged periods while biting down on cold, messy dental putty for an impression. Instead, the process is now much easier thanks to our digital dental impression system. Quickly scanning a person’s teeth and gums using a handheld device, we can produce a three-dimensional model on a nearby screen that lab technicians can use to easily create more accurate restorations that look natural and fit comfortably.
Intraoral Camera
Helping patients better understand their oral health is key, and it is why Dr. Patterson uses an intraoral camera. Allowing individuals to view the inside of their mouth on a chairside monitor while we scan their teeth and gums makes it possible for our team to not only find areas of decay that may be hiding but also better explain the state of a person’s oral health and what they can do to improve it.
Digital Dental X-Rays
It is essential that we see what is happening beneath the gumline, as many dental issues can form in areas the naked eye cannot see. Using digital X-rays, we not only cut down on the amount of radiation a patient is exposed to, but we also retrieve images quicker, allowing us to work alongside individuals to build a treatment plan that positively benefits their oral and overall health.
