Technologies at Our Dental Clinic
At Grasslands Dental Care, we believe clear communication is essential for successful treatment. With the support of our technology, we keep our patients informed at every stage so that they can be active participants in their oral health.
Utilizing technology, such as digital X-rays and intraoral cameras, helps us get a better look in your mouth so we can spot any oral conditions that may be developing, and begin treating them before they get worse.
At the same time, we can use our technology to show you what we see in your mouth, and talk you through exactly how we plan to correct the issue.
iTero® Element
The iTero Element Scanner is a digital impression system that eliminates the need for putty. With our iTero Element Scanner, your dentist uses an optical scanning wand to digitally capture a 3D model of your teeth and gums. They can then use this digital replica to map out different types of dental work, such as crowns and bridges.
Magnification Loupes
Loupes assist your Grasslands Dental Care team in bringing dental health into greater focus. The Loupes help us to see small cavities, slight crown fractures, and other details that would be missed by the naked eye.
Digital X-Rays
Instead of traditional photographic X-ray film, digital X-rays use digital sensors to produce detailed computer images of your teeth and gums. Our computer system is able to easily store and retrieve digital X-rays. They are safe for patients and help create an overall picture of your mouth.
Intraoral Camera
An intraoral camera is a tiny, high-resolution device that fits inside your mouth. It provides a high level of access and detail in even the most hard-to-reach places. The sharp, accurate images are enlarged so you and your dental team can view them together.
