iTero Digital Scanner
The iTero digital scanner is a revolutionary piece of technology that allows us to quickly and accurately create a scan of your teeth. It eliminates the need for traditional impressions, which can be invasive, uncomfortable, and time-consuming. Instead, the iTero scanner uses a handheld wand to create a high-resolution 3D image of your teeth, providing us with an incredibly detailed picture that we later use to diagnose any potential issues and plan the right treatment course for you. Once the 3D model has been created on our computers, we’ll be able to show you the exact problem areas and how we intend to use our orthodontic treatment in Providence, RI, to bring your smile back into beautiful alignment!
CBCT Digital X-Rays
At Providence Orthodontics, we also use advanced Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) digital x-rays to get even more detailed images of your mouth and jaw structure. What makes this type of x-ray so special is that it uses a cone-shaped beam to provide us with a 3D digital image that shows us everything from your teeth and their roots to your facial bones and soft tissue—all in precise, adjustable detail. This allows us to develop more precise treatment plans tailored specifically to your needs. The iCat FLX scanner, which is used in our office, also has the benefit of low-dose radiation to keep patient safety top-of-mind. So, whether you decide on our classic and affordable metal braces or our first-class Invisalign treatment in Providence, RI, you can be sure that Dr. Collins and our team here at Providence Orthodontics have the latest and greatest technology to get your smile looking its best!
