Nobel BioCare 3D Scanner

In the event of tooth damage, and even tooth loss, treatment is required. Damaged teeth can often be repaired with dental crowns, a protective cap that is secured to the affected tooth. Not only does it protect the tooth from further damage, but it also prevents bacterial invasion and strengthens the tooth. Teeth that are missing need to be replaced. There are several options available, including bridges and implants. Bridges are anchored to adjacent teeth and fill in the empty space. Implants, a revolutionary treatment, involve surgically implanting titanium rods that support replacement teeth. For optimal results, your restorations need to fit perfectly, and comfortably, in the mouth. At Kelly Smile Dentistry, we can create perfectly fitting restorations, including crowns, bridges, and implants, with the 3D Scanner from Nobel BioCare.

Traditional Impressions

Your mouth, and your restorative needs, are unique to you. A restoration that fits in the mouth of one patient will not fit, or function as it should, in yours. In order to create your dental restorations, whether it be a crown, a bridge, or a dental implant, impressions need to be taken. This is done to ensure that your restoration will fit in your mouth. Traditionally, impressions were taken with a special dental putty. The impressions were then sent to a lab where they would be used to create your restorations. Unfortunately, while decent restorations can be made, they do not offer exact measurements. This can lead to improper fit and the need to wait even longer while those errors are corrected.

Impressions With the 3D Scanner From Nobel Biocare

Advancements in dental technology have led to digital impressions, eliminating the need for impression putty. At Kelly Smile Dentistry, we have partnered with Nobel BioCare, and our office uses their 3D scanning technology. An optical scanner is used to create impressions with pinpoint accuracy. The impressions can then be displayed on a computer screen, and show the smallest details of your mouth. We are then able to design detailed restorations that will fit perfectly in your mouth and provide you with the best possible results.
