Types of Digital Dentistry Services
Digital X-Rays
Digital x-rays are faster and use less radiation than the older film x-rays. The resulting image appears on the computer screen immediately after taking the x-ray. They can then be enlarged and otherwise enhanced to aid in diagnosis.Digital Scanning
A digital scan creates computer-generated replicas of the soft and hard tissues inside a mouth. It uses lasers and other optical devices to scan the oral cavity and take highly accurate impressions in minutes. These scans can then be sent to a lab, where an extremely accurate restoration, such as a crown, can be fabricated.Soft Tissue Laser
These diode lasers create precision cuts in the mouth’s soft tissues, such as the gums, for some surgical procedures. The laser cauterizes the wounds instantly to reduce bleeding and encourage faster healing.Digital Imaging
We use several digital imaging devices in our office to ensure that we get the most accurate scan of our patient’s mouths. For instance, intraoral cameras use bright LED or halogen lights to project a live video of the mouth to a screen to show various areas with more clarity.Improve Your Oral Health Today With McDonogh Dental’s Digital Dentistry Services
