Dental impressions create a model of the mouth to plan dental treatment. Creation of dental appliances depends on use of this model. Powdered dental impression material is used when taking a traditional impression of the mouth. The powder is mixed with water to create a flowable material. The material is loaded into mouth trays and placed in the patient’s mouth. The mouth tray is left in the mouth until the material hardens, then removed.<\/p>\n
Increased Comfort:<\/strong> With digital scanning does not use powders or mouth trays. Removal of powders and mouth trays results in increased patient comfort. Additionally, patients with a sensitive gag reflex benefit greatly from digital scanning.<\/p>\n Faster Results:<\/strong> Traditional dental models that have to be physically shipped to a dental laboratory. However, digital scanning allows us to email a digital representation of the mouth to the dental lab the right away. This results in quicker times for dental appliances such as dentures, nightguards, dental crowns, dental veneers, etc.<\/p>\n Quicker Appointments:<\/strong> Powdered impressions require mixing of new material and use of another mouth tray for a retake. However, digital scanning allows for quick adjustments during the procedure. Scanning takes under five minutes to complete in most cases.<\/p>\n Saved Scans:<\/strong> Saved digital scans mean that a rescan will not be necessary for a lost dental appliance. A rescan is only needed if a significant amount of time has passed because the teeth may have shifted since the first scan.<\/p>\n A digital impression only requires the use of a scanning wand. The wand passes above, in front, and behind your teeth to create a 3D image of your mouth.<\/p>\n Considering getting a new and properly fitted denture, a dental crown, or veneers?
