Technology That Supports Your Smile Journey

At our orthodontic clinic in Vancouver, technology helps us provide a more personalized and comfortable experience for every patient.

Advanced orthodontic technology allows us to take a closer look at your teeth, bite, and overall smile development. With a clearer understanding of your unique needs, we can create a customized treatment plan designed to help you achieve your orthodontic goals.

Throughout your treatment, technology helps us track your progress and make adjustments when needed. This allows us to provide care that continues to be tailored to your smile at every stage.

We also use technology as a way to keep you involved in your treatment. By helping you better understand your orthodontic needs and progress, we can make your smile journey feel more informed and collaborative.

Digital X-rays

Digital X-rays use advanced imaging technology to create detailed images of your teeth, roots, and supporting structures.

These images help your orthodontist understand the position of your teeth beneath the gums, as well as the surrounding bone and jaw structures. Digital X-rays also provide valuable information that can impact your orthodontic care, such as identifying developing dental concerns or previous restorations. This detailed view helps our team make informed decisions when creating your personalized treatment plan.

Panoramic X-rays

Panoramic X-rays provide a broad view of your entire mouth in one detailed image, allowing your orthodontist to evaluate your teeth, upper and lower jaws, and surrounding structures.

These images help our team assess tooth development, the position of teeth and roots, eruption patterns, and how the teeth are positioned within the jaws. This information plays an important role in understanding your orthodontic needs and creating a treatment plan tailored to your smile.

Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT)

CBCT technology uses advanced 3D imaging to provide detailed views of your teeth, jaws, and surrounding oral structures. This specialized scan gives our orthodontic team a more complete understanding of your unique anatomy.

The detailed images provided by CBCT can support more precise diagnosis and treatment planning. They can also be used to evaluate areas such as your airway, helping our team assess factors related to conditions like snoring and sleep apnea.

iTero™ Intraoral Scanner

The iTero intraoral scanner uses digital imaging technology to create detailed 3D models of your teeth and mouth for orthodontic treatment such as Invisalign. Instead of traditional impression materials, this handheld device captures images comfortably and efficiently as it moves throughout your mouth.

In just a few minutes, the scanner creates a digital model that allows our team to view your teeth in detail and use the images to support treatment planning and communication throughout your orthodontic journey.
