Digital Impressions

Traditional dental impressions are taken with a putty-like material and can be uncomfortable for the patient. We are excited to announce that they are a thing of the past in our offices!

The CEREC Primescan uses a wand-like device that captures 50,000 images of your mouth per second. These images are compiled into a 3D image of your teeth, gums, mouth and jaw and displayed on a high definition computer screen for review. They are then sent directly to our lab to fabricate crowns, bridges, implants, retainers and night guards.

Looking to spend less time in the dental chair? Look no further! Our doctors can quickly and effectively treat each patient now that they don’t have to wait for traditional impressions to set.  Taken digitally, it generally takes 2 minutes for a full jaw impression.
