Dental Technology
Our Dental Technology Helps
Overview
Your enjoyable dental experience depends on your comfort and safety. Phipps Dental Practice utilizes the latest technological advances in dental equipment and techniques to ensure your satisfaction with your visit and your continued excellent health.
Itero
iTero is a technological advancement that allows Dr. Phipps to take a digital impression of your teeth. Digital impressions are more comfortable for you, and give your Phipps Dental team an instant, more accurate, three-dimensional image to use in crafting the perfect restoration for your mouth. When your restorative dental treatment requires an impression of your teeth and bite, you no longer have to put up with the goop, gagging and discomfort that you would expect from having an impression made using the conventional method. iTero is one of many advanced tools Drs. Phipps uses to ensure you have a wonderful experience with us.
Digital Radiographs (X-rays)
We offer digital radiographs (X-rays), which use less radiation and which are safer for you than traditional film-based X-rays. Radiographs are a necessary diagnostic tool in the field of dentistry. More than half of each tooth is hidden and surrounded by bone, and the only way to truly evaluate the health of your teeth and the bone surrounding your teeth is through these necessary, diagnostic radiographs. At Phipps Dental Practice, we research the latest trends in technology to find the solutions that best promote your overall health, safety, and comfort.
Cone Beam
Understanding the unique composition of your smile is vital to a proper diagnosis and treatment plan. Enjoy the latest digital X-ray technology at Phipps Dental Practice ― Cone Beam 3D Imaging. Unlike flat, two-dimensional X-rays, Cone Beam images provide a 3D digital replica of the bones and tissue of your face, teeth, jaw, and head. Your computerized image is easily manipulated, allowing your dental team to zoom-in on specific areas and to view your scan from various angles, ultimately understanding the complete make-up of your smile. This understanding is extremely useful when your Phipps Dental Practice team is planning dental implant treatments, as well as many other restorative and cosmetic dental treatments. Best of all, your Cone Beam scan is painless, takes only ten seconds, and safely operates with a lower dose of radiation than a traditional CT scan. The imaging system’s scanner rotates around your head one complete circle. Enjoy a truly customized treatment plan based on your exact dental needs!
