How Digital Impressions Work at Our Practice

Our digital impressions process begins with a small, pen-like intraoral scanner that captures detailed images of your teeth and oral structures. The scanner uses optical technology to create thousands of images per second, which are instantly compiled into a precise 3D digital model. This digital file is then transmitted directly to our dental laboratory or used with in-office milling systems for same-day restorations. The entire process is comfortable, quick, and provides immediate results that can be reviewed during your appointment.
