Digital impressions represent a significant advancement in oral surgery technology, offering a more comfortable and accurate alternative to traditional impression methods. Our oral surgeon and team utilize digital impressions to enhance the patient experience and improve the precision of dental restorations.
What Are Digital Impressions?
Digital impressions use advanced scanning technology to create a highly accurate 3D model of a patient’s mouth. This process involves:
- Scanning the teeth and gums with a compact, handheld device.
- Capturing detailed images that are instantly processed into a digital model.
Benefits of Digital Impressions
Choosing digital impressions offers several advantages over traditional methods:
- Comfort: Eliminates the need for physical impression materials, which can be unpleasant and trigger gag reflexes.
- Speed: Digital impressions are faster, allowing for immediate review and adjustments as necessary.
- Accuracy: Produces highly precise models, leading to better-fitting restorations.
- Efficiency: Digital files can be easily shared with dental labs, reducing wait times for the fabrication of crowns, bridges and other prosthetics.
