3D Scanning

At Golden Foothills Oral, Facial, & Dental Implant Surgery, our surgeons share a goal of enhancing the patient experience by providing the highest level of care possible. By utilizing the latest and greatest technology in our field, we provide better care and achieve outstanding clinical outcomes.

As leaders in oral and maxillofacial surgery, we stay at the forefront of dental technology and implement the most effective techniques and technologies available.

Technology That Benefits Our Patients

With the most advanced dental technology in our hands, we contribute to a safer and better overall experience for patients.

• 3D scans produce less exposure to radiation than traditional X-rays
• Virtual scans take only seconds to a few minutes to complete
• Surgical guides enhance precision and safety
• Better detection of oral health complications and hidden issues
• More technology keeps services in-house, reducing treatment times

Every office uses this state-of-the-art equipment, allowing us to provide a superior standard of care to every patient.

i-CAT^® 3D Imaging

The i-CAT scanner produces high-resolution images that our surgeons use to view all anatomic structures of the mouth and face. We can view facial bones, teeth, soft tissues, nerves, sinuses, and assess the airways from virtually every angle. This advanced imaging also allows us to detect oral pathologies, such as cysts and tumors. During the consultation, we will likely take 3D scans to assess oral health, detect any issues, and create a custom treatment plan.

Navident by ClaroNav

We are experts in dental implant-based restorations and use dynamic navigation during implant surgery. This technology enables us to place dental implants with great precision at the desired rotation and angle to achieve predictable outcomes. With state-of-the-art computer-aided software, these surgical guides reduce the risk of complications during surgery and ensure a faster recovery for our patients.

TRIOS^® Intraoral Scanners by 3Shape

Advancements in digital impressions have virtually eliminated the need for traditional molds and putty. Our team uses handheld intraoral scanners to take digital molds of your teeth. There are no messy molds and no extra time waiting for fabrication. Instead, we use a lightweight wand to scan the teeth and instantly create a virtual mold on the computer. Faster scans lead to faster results and better experiences for our patients.
