3D Dental Imaging

3D dental imaging allows us to see clear, detailed images of your mouth in a way not possible with traditional x-rays or medical CT scans. The biggest difference lies in the fact that traditional x-ray machines only create a 2D picture of your mouth. A three-dimensional image allows us to better understand the condition of your teeth and gums so that we can formulate the most effective treatment plan.

There are several benefits of 3D dental imaging, including:

• Increased diagnostic accuracy
• Reduced time for scanning
• Non-intrusive methods
• Minimal radiation exposure
• Clearer display formats for patients

The Power of 3D Printing Technology

Over the past few years, 3D printing has revolutionized the dental industry, and The Dental Standard is up to speed on all the latest advancements. From protecting teeth from grinding and impact injuries to straightening misaligned teeth to fixing broken teeth, Dr. Vlad Crutcher implements 3D printing technology in a variety of ways to ensure optimal results for patients.

There are several ways that 3D printing can be implemented in dentistry, including:

• Night guards, mouth guards, aligners, and retainers – The process for each of these solutions begins with a professional scan of your teeth. Then a specialized software is used to generate a 3D model of your teeth. Guards and retainers are designed based on the precise specifications of the model. For straightening aligners, the model is adjusted to what the patient’s teeth should become, and then an aligner is created based on those adjustments. The primary benefits of 3D printing for aligners and guards is speed and accuracy.

• Same day crowns – The traditional method of creating crowns to fix broken teeth is incredibly time-consuming and expensive. With 3D printing, creating crowns is much simpler, faster, and more cost-effective. After scanning the broken tooth, the dentist uses specialized equipment to create the crown in less than 30 minutes. Thus, a treatment that used to take several weeks is completed in under an hour.

• 3D models – When it comes to treating a dental issue, it’s crucial to get things right the first time. By using 3D printers, dentists can create an accurate model of the patient’s mouth and ensure that the aligner, crown, or implant fits with precision.
