CBCT
When it comes to your smile, seeing the full picture matters. That’s why we use Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT), an advanced imaging system that provides detailed, three-dimensional X-rays of your teeth, jaw, and facial structure. Unlike traditional 2D X-rays, CBCT scans offer a much clearer and more complete view, helping us diagnose and plan treatment with exceptional accuracy.
Why CBCT matters:
- Detailed visualization — CBCT scans allow us to see bones, nerves, soft tissues, and teeth from multiple angles.
- Safer, low-radiation technology — Designed to minimize radiation exposure while providing superior image quality.
- Improved treatment planning — Helps us address complex cases, including impacted teeth, jaw misalignments, and airway concerns.
- Better bite correction — Allows for more precise adjustments, improving both function and aesthetics.
CBCT imaging helps us create a treatment plan that is tailored to your exact needs, ensuring a healthier, more beautiful smile with lasting results.
SureSmile Wires
Traditional orthodontic wires require frequent manual adjustments and can sometimes result in longer treatment times. At Straight Smiles, we use SureSmile technology, which incorporates 3D imaging and robotic precision to custom-design archwires that move your teeth more efficiently and comfortably.
Advantages of SureSmile wires:
- Custom-designed for your teeth — Each wire is shaped specifically for your unique treatment plan, ensuring greater accuracy.
- Faster results — SureSmile wires help teeth move more directly to their ideal position, often reducing treatment time by several months.
- Fewer adjustments needed — Since the wires are precisely pre-programmed, you’ll require fewer in-office visits for tightening.
- Less discomfort — The advanced design minimizes unnecessary movement, leading to a smoother and more comfortable experience.
SureSmile wires enhance the effectiveness of braces, making treatment quicker, easier, and more predictable for our patients.
