CBCT
CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) is an advanced imaging technology that provides a more precise and detailed view compared to traditional CT scans—while using significantly less radiation. This system utilizes a rotating scanner and a cone-shaped X-ray beam to capture hundreds of images, which are then combined to create highly detailed 3D models of the jaws, face, and teeth.
CBCT scanners have become essential in modern oral surgery due to their accuracy and efficiency. They provide high-resolution, real-time 3D imaging, allowing our dental team to assess hard-to-reach areas with exceptional clarity. The images are instantly processed and transferred to a computer, enabling surgeons to plan procedures virtually—enhancing precision and reducing uncertainty in treatment.

SprintRay 3D Printer
SprintRay is a state-of-the-art 3D printer that creates high-resolution, ultra-precise models of a patient’s mouth in just one to two hours – offering a more realistic and accurate alternative to traditional dental molds.
Instead of using messy dental putty, we utilize digital dental impressions, captured with a small, handheld scanner resembling an electric toothbrush. This advanced device functions as a high-tech camera, taking thousands of detailed images as it moves across the teeth. Patients can even watch their digital impressions form in real time on a screen!
The entire process takes just a few minutes, providing a more comfortable experience for patients while offering enhanced accuracy and efficiency for dental professionals.

Digital Scanners
Also known as 3D intraoral scanning, digital scanning uses the latest technology to create precise, high-resolution images of your teeth and mouth—without the need for messy traditional impressions. This advanced process utilizes a small, handheld scanner that gently glides over your teeth, capturing thousands of detailed images to form a comprehensive 3D model in real-time.
With computer-aided software, digital scanning provides an extremely accurate view of both your teeth and soft tissues, helping our doctors create precise digital impressions for crowns, retainers, dentures, bridges, and more—all with greater speed and accuracy. It’s also an essential tool for diagnosing tooth alignment issues and assisting with orthodontic treatments.
