CHAIRSIDE DENTISTRY

THE INTRAORAL DIGITAL SCANNER

Introducing faster, easier, and more accurate scanning!

Winyah Dental Group has embraced the highly sought-after intraoral scanner ("IOS") because the technology is drastically improved from the previous methodology and enables high precision accurate digital impressions ensuring a perfect fit for any repair or appliance.

 

Patient Benefits
  • Time saver - The intraoral scanner prevents the patient from sitting in the dental chair for hours to just get treatment. 

  • Safe - The patient being treated using the IOS is not exposed to harmful radiation.

  • Accurate - Using the IOS enables us to capture the exact shape and contours of your teeth, thus enabling us to give appropriate and accurate treatment.

  • Comfort - Unlike the old molding technique, which was quite messy, forcing patients to sit for about fifteen minutes with a large rubber-like material in the mouth. It often produced a gagging effect for patients leading to great discomfort. Our new IOS technique has proved to be quite comfortable as the patient's teeth are being scanned in a matter of very few minutes of the patient's time.

Cone beam cbct system

Description

Cone-beam computed tomography systems (CBCT) used at Winyah Dental Group rotate around the patient, capturing data using a cone-shaped X-ray beam. We then use this data to reconstruct a three-dimensional (3D) image of the teeth, mouth, jaw, and neck.

 

Uses

We are then able to use the 3D images for various clinical applications, including:

  • Dental implant planning

  • Visualization of abnormal teeth

  • Evaluation of the jaws and face

  • Cleft palate assessment

  • Diagnosis of dental caries (cavities)

  • Endodontic (root canal) diagnosis

  • Diagnosis of dental trauma.
