At Stewart Smiles, we’re committed to providing the highest quality orthodontic care through the use of our advanced technology. Our cutting-edge equipment not only improves the accuracy of orthodontic treatments but also enhances the comfort and convenience of each patient’s experience. Here’s a look at the advanced technology we use to ensure you smile just as much during treatment as you will after.
3D Radiographs (CBCT)
Our practice utilizes Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) to capture detailed, 3D radiographs of the teeth, jaw, and surrounding structures. Unlike traditional radiographs, CBCT scans provide a comprehensive view of the entire oral and facial anatomy, allowing us to diagnose and plan treatments with incredible precision. The 3D images are invaluable for detecting issues that may not be visible on standard 2D radiographs, such as impacted teeth, bone structure, and jaw alignment.
With CBCT technology, we can confidently develop personalized treatment plans that address each patient’s unique needs, ensuring optimal results and a smoother orthodontic experience. This technology not only improves accuracy but also minimizes the need for invasive procedures, making it a comfortable, safe choice for our patients.
iTero Scanner
Gone are the days of traditional, messy impressions. With our state-of-the-art iTero Scanner, we can capture a precise, 3D digital model of your teeth in minutes. The iTero Scanner uses a small, handheld wand to take thousands of photos of your teeth and gums, creating a detailed 3D image of your mouth. This impression-free process is quick, comfortable, and more accurate than traditional molds, allowing us to plan your treatment with a level of precision that wasn’t previously possible.
The iTero Scanner enhances the patient experience by giving you a clear picture of your treatment plan from the beginning. With its advanced simulation software, you can even see a preview of how your smile will look after treatment. This technology supports treatments from braces to Invisalign, helping us provide high-quality, customized care for every patient.
Digital (Impression-Free) Retainers
At Stewart Smiles, we’re dedicated to making every aspect of your orthodontic care as comfortable and seamless as possible — even after treatment is complete. Our digital retainers are created using advanced, impression-free technology that captures your teeth and gums accurately and comfortably. Using digital scans, we can print 3D models and create retainers that fit perfectly without the need for traditional molds.
Digital retainers offer several advantages over traditional retainers. They provide a more comfortable fit and preserve the 3D model which allows us to create replacement retainers quickly and easily to the exact location of your teeth when the scan was taken in case you need a replacement retainer in the future. This impression-free approach also enables us to keep a digital record of your smile, making it simpler to maintain your results in the future.
