At Mountain West Dental Care, we offer the latest dental technology to provide patients in Idaho Falls and the surrounding communities with a unique dental experience. The following is a look at some of our cutting-edge digital technology options:
Digital Dental X-Rays: Digital x-rays capture detailed images of your teeth, gums, and underlying oral structures using electronic sensors rather than conventional photographic film. Our state-of-the-art imaging devices reduce radiation exposure by almost 90% compared to traditional x-rays. They provide instant, high-quality images, allowing for quicker diagnosis and more effective treatment planning.
Intraoral Cameras: The tiny, hand-held devices provide high-resolution, real-time views of your mouth. They reveal potential problems, such as cavities, tooth wear, and fractures, providing deeper insights into your oral health. Intraoral cameras help you visualize and better understand specific concerns, allowing you to make informed decisions about required treatments.
CBCT 3D Imaging: Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) is a revolutionary dental imaging technology that provides three-dimensional images of the teeth, soft tissues, sinuses, nerve pathways, bone, and so much more, all in a single scan. The wealth of information CBCT scans offer is instrumental in planning dental implant placement or root canal therapy, evaluating complex dental structures, and so much more.
Intraoral Scanners: These state-of-the-art devices capture highly detailed images and create digital 3D models of your teeth and surrounding structures using optical imaging technology. Intraoral scanners eliminate the need for traditional putty impressions, offering a more comfortable patient experience. The incredibly precise models they produce allow us to create high-quality dental restorations with a perfect fit and superior function.
