Take a Virtual Tour of Our Comfortable, Hi-Tech Houston Dentist Office

Our office invests a lot into advanced technologies. One of the things that we have here in our office is what's known as a CBCT or a cone beam cat scan. It's essentially just a three-dimensional X-ray of your jaws and your teeth. That allows me to be able to do more accurate diagnoses and also to do more predictable treatment planning.

We have some patients that have been to several dentists that can't figure out what the problem is from traditional X-rays. We start with a traditional X-ray here in this office, and sometimes I can't see what's going on either, but then sometimes we get a three-dimensional image of that tooth, and I'm able to see clearly an infection at the base of the tooth or a crack in the tooth, and it just makes it more accurate for diagnosing situations so that we can help resolve those problems.
Another thing that we have here in this office is what's known as a three-dimensional scanner. We use an iTero scanner here in our office, and it allows us to make digital impressions. The advantage of the digital impressions is you don't have to have all that goopy stuff in your mouth to get those impressions, and it allows us to get more accurate renderings of your teeth as well. So we use that when we do crowns on teeth, and we use that when we make impressions for Invisalign orthodontic treatment.
