iTero Scanner
Say goodbye to messy, uncomfortable traditional impressions! Our iTero Scanner allows us to create detailed 3D digital models of your teeth in just minutes. Using a small, handheld wand, we scan your teeth and gums to produce a highly accurate image without the need for trays or putty.
This technology enhances your experience by making the process quick and comfortable while providing incredibly precise data for your treatment plan. The iTero Scanner is especially beneficial for Invisalign patients, as it ensures the perfect fit for your aligners. Plus, with its real-time simulation feature, you can see a preview of your new smile before treatment even begins!
Digital Photos
High-quality digital photos are an essential part of your orthodontic journey. We use these photos to document your treatment progress, evaluate your smile, and communicate effectively with you about your care. By capturing detailed images of your teeth, gums, and facial structure, we can provide a comprehensive understanding of your orthodontic needs.
These photos also help us customize your treatment plan and ensure everything is progressing as expected. And because they’re digital, they’re easy to store, share, and reference throughout your treatment.
Digital X-Rays
Precision imaging is a cornerstone of great orthodontic care. At Hulme Orthodontics, we use advanced digital X-ray technology, including 3D X-rays and CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) scans, to get a complete and accurate view of your teeth, jaws, and surrounding structures.
- 3D X-Rays: These provide a full, three-dimensional view of your dental anatomy, allowing us to diagnose complex issues and plan your treatment with unmatched accuracy. From impacted teeth to jaw alignment problems, 3D X-rays help us ensure no detail is overlooked.
- CBCT Scans: For even more in-depth imaging, we use CBCT scans to assess your teeth, bone structure, airway, and sinus cavities. This technology is especially useful for patients needing surgical orthodontics or complex treatment plans, as it gives us a comprehensive view of the entire oral and facial region.
Digital X-rays are not only more precise but also safer than traditional methods, exposing you to significantly less radiation.
3D Printing
Our state-of-the-art 3D printing technology takes orthodontics to the next level by giving us the ability to create customized appliances right in our office. Whether it’s fabricating retainers, aligners, or other orthodontic devices, 3D printing allows us to design and produce appliances faster and with greater precision than ever before.
This technology streamlines the treatment process, reducing wait times and giving us full control over the quality of the appliances we create. For Invisalign patients, 3D printing works hand-in-hand with the iTero Scanner to ensure your aligners are perfectly tailored to your unique smile.
