Digital Impressions
An important part of preparing for your new orthodontics is getting your dental impressions. In the past, this meant using a messy paste in uncomfortable trays that tasted awful. At Elite Orthodontics, we make impressions comfortable and paste-free with digital impressions in Buckeye, Arizona. To see how our orthodontists, Dr. Nathan Davis and our team have made the process convenient, call our offices for your appointment.
Digital impressions are a modern, efficient and comfortable way to take precise impressions of your mouth. If you have ever had to have a traditional impression or mold taken in the past, you know that they can be unpleasant and uncomfortable. We are pleased to utilize digital impressions to eliminate the need for messy, goopy impressions. While this technology can make the experience more comfortable for any patient, it is especially good for patients who gag easily. The digital impression system is less invasive than traditional impressions and molds and provides our team with extremely accurate impressions.
Some of the other benefits of digital impression technology include:
- Digital impressions can be used for creating dental restorations, such as crowns, as well as orthodontic aligners
- No messy “goop”
- The scanner can be quickly taken out of your mouth if you ever feel uncomfortable, and we can easily start and stop the scanning process as needed
- Digital impressions require much less time than traditional impressions, helping to make your appointment more efficient
