Our Technology - welcomeorthodontics

Technology has had a major impact on the advancements in orthodontic care and continues to develop. The technology we use at Welcome Orthodontics is designed to get you into treatment faster and create better results. Dr. Tavakoli and his team are experts at what they do and by using the latest in orthodontic technology, they are able to provide patients with the most accurate diagnosis and treatment plans.

iTero Digital Scanner

The iTero scanner is designed to replace the slower and less accurate methods for creating models of your smile. With iTero, the impression part of the treatment planning process is now more accurate and more comfortable than ever. With iTero, you can say goodbye to messy molds! The iTero scanner uses a handheld wand to scan and create 3D images of your teeth and jaw in just a few minutes. These images of your current smile are then used to create a customized treatment plan and guide your alignment goals throughout treatment to help you achieve your perfect smile. Additionally, we can use the 3D images generated from these scans to create a model of what your projected smile will look like once treatment is complete. The iTero scanner helps Dr. Tavakoli optimize your treatment and create appliances that fit perfectly.

CBCT Scans

Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT), is a form of 2D and 3D digital imaging that goes above and beyond standard X-rays. During your scan, a cone-shaped beam will be moved around you to take images of your teeth, bones, soft tissues, and nerve pathways that are then put together to create a panoramic model. Having such a detailed layout of your smile, bite, and overall oral health allows Dr. Tavakoli and his team to customize a treatment plan that is perfectly tailored to your orthodontic needs.
