Spend More Time Smiling and Less Time at the Dentist with Innovative New Ortho
Enhance Your Smile with Comfort and Ease!
Many orthodontic clients say the worst part of having braces is the preparation. Sure, you have to give up some of your favorite foods, like sticky candies or crunchy popcorn, but that’s manageable! The traditionally goopy molds with their off-taste, on the other hand, can someone hesitate to get the care they need, especially if their gag reflex is very strong.
Dallas Cosmetic Dental in Dallas, TX is bringing in an innovative new approach to how we do braces! Instead of traditional x-rays, cement molds, and uncomfortable photographs of your mouth, we use the iTero Intraoral Element Scanner. With its simple design and powerful technology, we can phase out the old-school methods, making the process faster, easier, and more comfortable for everyone involved!
How the iTero Element Scanner Is Beneficial To Your Treatment
The software allows patients and dentists to get a more accurate reading of your teeth and gums, plus we can send all of this information directly to an orthodontic lab to create your braces. Considering Invisalign braces instead of traditional metal wires? The iTero connects to Invisalign’s labs in just a few seconds. Plus, everything is stored digitally on our servers. This change helps to not only reduces our carbon footprints, making us more eco-friendly but also makes it easier for us to access your information.
The iTero Intraoral Scanner is time-saving, convenient, and portable. Its vibrant, full-color screen and intuitive technology allow you to see what your dentist sees, keeping you in the loop during every step of your orthodontic treatment.
Spend Less Time at the Dentist and More Time Smiling!
Before the introduction of our iTero Element Scanner, the process of orthodontics could take weeks for the construction of your braces.
Today at Dallas Cosmetic Dental, we put a small wand that fits comfortably into your mouth and it delivers a 360-degree-view. Most of the process can be completed in one appointment. After taking the scans, we send your information wirelessly to the orthodontic lab. They use the scans to make a stereolithographic mold, which is 3D printed and used to create the final set of braces. Dr. Alhadef and patients alike have noticed this technology leads to better fitting applications that deliver better results than ever before!
The scanner allows an experienced dental assistant to take up to 6,000 digital scans of your teeth and gums per second – and in real time. This speed means that the images are available almost immediately after the scanning process, which, by the way, only takes around 10 – 15 minutes to complete. Compared to the hours long, back-to-back appointments usually required for braces, this is an incredible upgrade!
