Dental Technology

At South Dayton Smiles, we work hard to stay on top of the latest developments in our field because we believe this is important to provide our patients with the best service possible. There is a lot of research taking place in dentistry, and this includes dental technology.

We deliver some of the best care in the local area by combining our tremendous amount of experience with advanced dental technology. We may use several devices to improve the quality of the dental care you receive.

Dental Technology Equipment We Use

There are several examples of dental technology equipment we commonly use to help our patients. They include:

• Digital X-Rays: We use dental X-rays to see underneath the surface.
• Digital Impressions: We take digital Impressions to make sure we customize various oral appliances to meet your needs.
• Intraoral Camera: There might be situations where we have a hard time seeing inside of your mouth, and an intraoral camera can help us.
• CAD-CAM: We can use a computer to draw diagrams of different types of equipment we may use during your care process.

We will not use all of these devices during every visit, but we will employ them when we feel like they would benefit your care.

When Are These Devices Necessary?

Ultimately, these advanced pieces of dental technology are all about providing us with the information we need to take care of you. If we need more information to decide what to do next, we may use this equipment. 

For example, we may take X-rays to take a closer look at the alignment of your teeth. Or, we may use digital impressions to help us decide what type of retainer is best for you. We will clearly explain why we are using certain devices, and we will go through the benefits and drawbacks of each choice with you.
