In the rapidly changing field of dentistry today, technology is changing how dentists treat patients and improve their experiences. Digital impressions are one of the most revolutionary developments, offering a modern replacement for conventional dentistry techniques.

Accuracy and efficiency are vital in modern dentistry. Putty materials used for traditional dental impressions can be untidy, inconvenient for patients, and prone to errors. Digital impressions are a state-of-the-art method that is transforming the way dentists take dental impressions of their patients.

At Horizon Implants, we have embraced advanced dental technologies to enhance patient care and streamline workflows. At Horizon Implants, we’re proud to offer this cutting-edge solution to improve precision, comfort, and results, especially for implant dentistry.

In the digital impressions methodology, we use advanced optical scanning technology to create a highly accurate 3D model of your teeth, gums, and oral structures. Instead of using messy impression material that can trigger gag reflexes or cause discomfort, we use an intraoral scanner to digitally capture your mouth’s exact shape.

Intraoral Scanner: The intraoral scanner, a compact, portable wand-like device with cameras and optical sensors, is the central component of digital impression technology.

Scanning Process: The intraoral scanner is moved by our dentist around the patient’s mouth. Thousands of pictures are taken by the scanner every second, and sophisticated software stitches them together to create an extremely precise 3D digital model of the patient’s mouth.

Real-time Visualization: Our dentist can instantly analyze the scan, look for any problems or missing areas, and make any necessary adjustments because the photos are shown on a computer in real time.

Design & Fabrication: We use this digital file for crowns, bridges, implants, aligners, or dentures and send it to a dental lab.

Increased Accuracy and Precision:

Digital scans are able to capture extremely precise details, leading to better-fitting restorations and appliances and reducing the need for adjustments or remakes.

Enhanced Patient Comfort:

It eliminates the possibility of gag reactions, unpalatable tastes and odors, and sloppy impression materials, making the procedure considerably more comfortable, especially for patients who are highly apprehensive.

Increased Efficiency and Speed:

 The speedy scanning procedure and immediate digital file transmission to dental labs significantly shorten restorative processing times.

Better Communication:

 To enhance comprehension and cooperation, our dentists may conveniently distribute the 3D models to patients, other experts, or dental labs.

Reduced Errors:

 Errors are decreased because real-time inspection and correction of scans reduces human error and the need for retakes.

Digital Storage and Environmental Benefits:

By eliminating material waste (disposable trays, imprint materials), digital impressions save physical space and contribute to an eco-friendly, paperless approach.

Cost-Effectiveness (Long-term):

Even while the scanning technology requires an initial investment, there may be significant long-term savings due to lower material prices, fewer remakes, and more productivity.

When it comes to dental implants, accuracy is everything. A precise impression ensures that the implant fits perfectly and integrates seamlessly with the jawbone and surrounding teeth. At Horizon Implants Dental Office, we use digital impressions to:

• This digital impressions technology improves surgical planning by utilizing 3D mapping.
