Reasons to Switch to Digital Dental Impressions: The Solution You've Been Looking For
Dental impressions are an important part of many dental procedures. Traditionally, these impressions have been taken using a putty-like material that is placed in the mouth and then removed, often leaving behind a mess. Additionally, traditional dental impressions can be difficult to take accurately, which can lead to problems with the final product. Digital dental impressions offer a solution to these problems. In this article, we will discuss the benefits of digital dental impressions and why you should switch to them!
What are digital dental impressions and how do they work?
Digital dental impressions are a type of 3D imaging used to create a digital model of a patient's teeth. The images are taken using a special camera that captures high-resolution 3D images of the teeth and gums. These images are then transferred to a computer where they can be viewed, manipulated, and measured. Digital dental impressions are becoming increasingly popular as they offer a more accurate and efficient way to capture dental data. They also eliminate the need for traditional impressions, which can be uncomfortable for patients.
The benefits of digital dental impressions over traditional impressions
Digital dentistry offers a variety of benefits for both dental practices and patients. 3 main benefits include:
Speed and Efficiency
Perhaps most notably, digital dentistry allows for increased speed and efficiency in the creation of dental products. Using computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) technology, dental practices can submit product orders that will be filled in our full-service lab. This means that patients will receive their orders in 1/2 the time of traditional dental labs.
Accuracy and Precision
In addition to increased speed, digital dentistry also offers superior accuracy and precision. This is due to the fact that CAD/CAM technology allows for the exact replication of a dental practitioner's desired results. As a result, patients can be confident that they will receive dental products that fit perfectly and look natural.
Improved Comfort
Another benefit of digital dentistry is improved comfort for patients. Traditional dental impressions can be uncomfortable and even painful for some patients. With digital dental impressions, there is no need for putty in the mouth, or the need to bit down and hold a mouthful of goop for several minutes. The process is quick, easy, and painless!
