Fast, Efficient, Comfortable Technology For Your Orthodontic Care
As an orthodontist in Plano, Dr. Ben Winters refuses to compromise on the level of quality care we offer. When we consider what dental technologies to invest in, the one thing we always consider is how you’ll benefit. Sure, bright, shiny toys are fun to learn about and use, but if you or our team doesn’t benefit, as an orthodontist in Plano, we’d rather invest in something that helps you enjoy more comfortable and convenient visits.
Here are some of the technologies we use daily to help you enjoy your visits…
Digital X-Rays & Diagnostics
Better for you, our team, and the environment, digital x-rays capture pictures of your teeth and hard tissues while also using up to 90% less radiation than traditional x-rays. We can adjust the settings to accommodate your personal needs – whether you’re worried about radiation because of and physical risks or previous radiation treatment, you don’t want your kids exposed to radiation so early in their lives, or if you’re concerned about how chemicals and old films will affect our environment. At our clinic, we offer advanced orthodontic x-rays services that utilize this cutting-edge digital technology. These x-rays provide clearer, faster results, ensuring that your treatment plan is as efficient and effective as possible while maintaining a focus on safety and sustainability.
No More Goopy Impressions!
When you visit Wincrest Orthodontics, you won’t have to suffer through goopy, unpleasant tray-and-putty impressions. That’s because we have the iTero® digital impression system – designed with your orthodontic treatment in mind. In line with this modern approach, our orthodontic x-ray services employ the latest digital technology to provide precise imaging with minimal discomfort. These advanced diagnostic tools allow us to develop a clearer understanding of your dental structure, facilitating more accurate treatment planning and faster adjustments to your orthodontic care.
With this amazing, handheld intraoral scanner, we are able to capture a highly detailed 3D image of your mouth, and then project it in front of both of us on a screen. The entire process is painless and only takes a few minutes to complete and makes you an active part of the treatment planning process. In addition to the scanner, our orthodontic x-rays services further enhance our ability to diagnose and plan effectively. These x-rays provide essential insights into the underlying structure of your teeth and jaw, enabling us to tailor your treatment with precision and clarity.
