Our New 3D Imaging Scanner

We are please to be able to provide 3D dental imaging technology. Our cone beam scanner allows us (with a minimal amount of radiation) to obtain detailed 3D images for the placement of implants, the study of TMJ, and other pathologies which are only visible using this technology. At 31 microsieverts our state of the are scanner uses 10 times less radiation than traditional CAT scans.
