More than Just an Impression
One of the most common complaints about orthodontic treatment and one of the most common reasons people avoid orthodontic treatment is impressions. Impressions are molds taken of the teeth with goopy alginate or silicon material in an impression tray. These impressions are taken for diagnostic records and to make various orthodontic appliances like clear aligners and retainers. We are dedicated to making your orthodontic treatment as easy, efficient, and comfortable as possible. That means using state-of-the-art TRIOS® digital scanning throughout your treatment. Our TRIOS® intraoral scanners are used with all treatments offered in our practice, including diagnostic models, clear aligners, retainers, expanders, and SureSmile® records.
The TRIOS® intraoral scanner allows us to have complete control over all aspects of your smile transformation, from your very first appointment to the day you receive your retainers!
Intraoral scanning with TRIOS®:
- No need for traditional alginate or silicone (goopy) impressions
- Allows us to start, stop, and restart scanning at any time (typical scan takes one minute per arch)
- High-quality digital impressions improve diagnostics, communication and appliance accuracy
- Accurately captures your bite in real time for comprehensive diagnostics and treatment planning
- Monitors your progress by virtually removing brackets and comparing your tooth movement with your treatment plan
- Allows us to scan your teeth for retainers, then 3D print your models for same-day fabrication in-office
- Allows us to save digital copies of your teeth and bite for future comparison or fabrication of replacement retainers
