Our Orthodontic Technologies

iTero® Element Intraoral Scanner

No Goop, No Mess, No Putty

 

With the iTero Element Digital Scanner, taking digital impressions is a quick, comfortable process. This advanced scanning technology replaces the need for traditional putty impressions, which means no goop or gagging during impressions! 

 

The iTero intraoral scanner creates a precise 3-D model of your teeth in only a few minutes. The accuracy of iTero scans allows us to create 100% personalized treatment plans for each patient and achieve highly-predictable results with braces and Spark™ clear aligners. 

 

We use high-tech digital scans over traditional impressions at all of our offices.

Panoramic X-rays

We use panoramic x-rays to produce a high-quality, 2-D image of the structures of your teeth, jaws and tissues. These x-rays are safer than traditional x-rays, allowing for only an eighth of the radiation exposure that traditional x-rays emit. 

 

This advanced technology doesn’t require us to place anything in your mouth. The device simply rotates in a semi-circle around your head to produce the image.

Sirona CBCT Machine

What does a CBCT scan show? We use advanced 3-D CBCT imaging technology in our Bossier City orthodontic office to detect possible airway problems, TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorder, or other conditions in the tissues, muscles, joints or jaw bones.

 

It’s important that we see the full picture of your teeth and everything that lies underneath to create a clinically accurate treatment plan. Our orthodontists consider every detail when creating your personalized treatment plan!

3-D Printers

We have two 3-D printers in our Bossier City office for in-house printing. We are able to print models for almost all of the orthodontic appliances and retainers we use in our very own office, with the utmost precision.

 

This reduces turnaround time compared to using outside labs and enables us to keep our treatment costs down for you!
