Digital X-rays

Digital X-rays use digital sensors instead of traditional film. This technology provides a much clearer image, with up to 90% less radiation exposure. Digital X-rays also allow orthodontists to zoom in and out or adjust brightness and contrast levels, making identifying and diagnosing any underlying issues easier. This technology is fast, convenient, and provides instant results, making the treatment process much more efficient for the orthodontist and patient.

The iTero scanner captures accurate images of the teeth and bite in just a few minutes, eliminating the need for messy and uncomfortable impressions.

CBCT Scanner

CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) Scanner is an imaging technology that provides highly detailed 3D images of the teeth, jaws, and surrounding structures. This technology offers much more detail than traditional X-rays, making it easier for orthodontists to diagnose and plan treatments for more complex cases. The CBCT scanner also helps to minimize the number of visits a patient needs to make, as orthodontists can plan their treatment more efficiently based on the 3D images. This reduces the overall treatment time and increases patient satisfaction.

Our Technology

At WOW Orthodontics, we use the best that modern technology has to offer so that our patients can enjoy the excellent dental care they deserve. At the end of the day, it all comes down to patient comfort, and Dr. Oakes uses these items on a daily basis to make sure that each patient has a comfortable, rewarding experience.

Digital Panorex X-Rays

Standard digital X-rays are taken one at a time and pieced together, but the digital panorex X-ray machine takes a panoramic picture of your entire mouth. Think of a panoramic picture of the Nashville skyline, but instead, this one is of your teeth! The panorex works by using a half-circle motion to capture a single image that includes your entire mouth and reduces radiation exposure by up to 90% (compared to standard X-rays).

CBCT Scan – 3D Imaging

Dr. Oakes uses the CBCT Scan – 3D Imaging System to help more accurately guide the movement of your teeth into place. CBCT Scan allows Dr. Oakes to take 3D images of your whole mouth without taking multiple X-rays. CBCT helps you to see what is normally unable to be seen with a traditional X-ray. It provides a birds-eye-view of an impacted tooth, an extra tooth, airway evaluation, condylar alignment, and much more. It is a critical tool that is used with cleft palate patients as well.

Benefits of

Advanced Orthodontic Technology

Improved Precision

Advanced orthodontic technology allows for more precision in treatment planning and execution. With digital scans, orthodontists can create a 3D model of a patient's mouth, allowing for an accurate analysis of their teeth and the movement required.

Reduced Treatment Time

Thanks to advancements in orthodontic technology, treatment time can be reduced for patients. Invisalign uses advanced software to calculate the appropriate adjustments, reducing the number of office visits required and providing faster results.

Improved Comfort

Traditional braces can often be associated with discomfort. However, advanced orthodontic technology provides patients with more comfortable treatment options. Invisalign aligners are smooth and comfortable without the risk of bracket or wire irritation. It also helps with oral hygiene and care.

Enhanced Aesthetics

Orthodontic treatment no longer has to be associated with the unsightly appearance of traditional braces. Invisalign aligners and clear braces provide a discreet treatment option without the noticeable metal brackets and wires.

More Efficient Communication

Advanced orthodontic technology provides a more efficient way for orthodontists to communicate with their patients. With digital scans, orthodontists can show patients the exact movement required for their teeth. This allows for better patient understanding and communication during the treatment process.
