Is the 3D scan painful or uncomfortable?

No. The scanner is a small optical tip that simply glides over your teeth. There's no pressure, no putty, and no unpleasant taste — most patients find it far more comfortable than traditional molds.

How long does the scan take?

A full scan of both arches takes 5 to 10 minutes. As soon as it's done, you'll see your 3D model on the screen right away.

Is digital dentistry more expensive?

The 3D scan is included in our digital consultation. In many cases, by reducing lab time and errors, the overall treatment cost stays the same or even improves.

What is an intraoral scan?

It's a compact scanner that captures 3D images of your mouth in real time, replacing traditional putty impressions. It's fast, precise, and far more comfortable for the patient.

What is 3D printing in dentistry?

It's the fabrication of dental models, splints, and aligners from digital files. It allows us to create custom pieces with maximum precision and in less time than traditional methods.

What is computer-guided surgery?

It's the digital planning of dental implant placement. Using specialized software, we design the exact position before surgery, which reduces the margin of error and speeds up recovery.
