Yes, our office has a digital scanner to take digital impressions.
In the past, if you needed a dental impression (mold of your mouth) to make a dental crown, bridge, or assess your bite, it required taking a traditional impression. This process involved goopy impression material and impression trays, and patients often disliked the experience for being messy, time-consuming, and causing gagging! Now, we have a digital scanner for impressions. For a digital impression, a small wand is used to scan the mouth and create a model of your teeth digitally. Dr. Nelson and patients alike have loved the new technology as it is much more comfortable and accurate!
