Orthodontic Specialist Offer Patients Digital Impressions
Dental impressions is the first step prior to having braces put on. Normally impression are made with a goo like substance that is squished into your mouth. Although it can feel gross most people can handle this process. However for other individuals that have a sensitive gag reflex, this can be the most dreaded part of getting your teeth straightened.
At Feldman Orthodontics in Tampa, Florida they use a digital impression scanner called the iOC Scanner by iTero Technology (aka “the OrthoCad Scanner”). This scanner identifies the tooth by voice and visual commands and performs parallel confocal scanning by capturing 100,000 laser points in perfect focus. Digital impressions provide greater accuracy when creating the patient model and increased comfort for their patients. Having a dentist who can provide up to date technology when handling your dental care treatments, can help to make sure you get the best possible care
