Digital scanning is an efficient alternative to conventional dental impressions. At Baum Braces, we are an impression-free office, so no need to worry about messy, goopy orthodontic molds of your teeth! The iTero element Scanner is the next-generation scanner, capturing more information at 20x the speed of scanners introduced just a few years ago. These 3D scans of your teeth and bite can then be transmitted wirelessly over the internet with the capability to create orthodontic appliances, submit your case to Invisalign, simulate treatment or design customized braces. The benefit of this can be increased patient comfort and greater efficiency in your care.
Our 3D imaging offers Planmeca Ultra Low Dose™ technology– a proprietary low dose 3D imaging protocol that enables CBCT imaging with an even lower patient radiation dose than standard panoramic imaging. The improved diagnostic capability of the images and the ability to instantly and easily show them to you will create a deeper visual understanding of the need for treatment. Minimizing exposure to X-Rays and using the latest technology is extremely important to us! It’s also a very green technology that is better for the environment by eliminating the film, developer, and chemical waste of the past.
