What to Expect
At the consultation, we will examine your teeth, explain your treatment options, and create a custom care plan for your dental needs. We will likely take 3D scans of your mouth, which are used to detect hidden oral health issues and create detailed surgical guides. It’s a good idea to write all of your questions about treatment beforehand so we can address them and make sure you feel informed about your options and upcoming procedure.
3D Scanning
We use state-of-the-art CBCT scanning technology to view detailed images of the oral and maxillofacial region, resulting in better treatment planning and more predictable results.
