3D - Technology
Is the most up to date in health care for mutiple reasons.
All x-rays exposed in our office are digital, therefore reducing the amount of radiation you are exposed to by 90% LESS than film x-rays.
3D Imaging gives us more information for more thorough treatment planning. It gives us a better understanding of the relationship of the teeth to each other, the jaws, and joints in relationship to other structures in the the nose and airway.
Just straightening teeth without this understanding may actually make your health worse.
