Dental technology helps our dental team provide quality care for your family’s oral health needs. From tracking tooth development to accurate diagnosis, you’ll encounter these pieces of dental technology during your dental appointments at our New Westminster Clinic.
CBCT Scanner
The CBCT scanner rotates around your head to capture 3D imaging of both soft and hard tissues. Our dental team uses this scanner for diagnostics, treatment planning, and monitoring tooth growth in development.
Intraoral Scanner
The intraoral scanner is a handheld device that captures digital 3D images of your teeth. This quick and efficient process ensures your scans are done swiftly and comfortably. Our dental team may utilize this scanner during your routine dental exam to monitor your oral health.
iTero Scanner
Our dental team uses this wand-shaped scanner to quickly create precise 3D impressions for your custom Invisalign aligner trays. With its detailed and accurate results, we can track your progress effectively, helping you achieve your alignment goals.
Dental Lasers
Our clinic uses dental lasers to target and remove bacteria from teeth and gums. This laser technology is safe, non-invasive, and gentle on your teeth and gums. Our dentists use the dental laser in treatments from fillings to whitening to root canals.
VELscope
During your comprehensive oral exam, our dentists may use the VELScope device. This tool uses specific light waves to identify abnormalities in gum and skin tissues, which can indicate various oral health issues.
