At Lund Family Dentistry, we embrace modern technology to enhance your dental experience—starting with our 3D intraoral scanner. This advanced tool replaces traditional, messy impression materials with a quick, comfortable, and highly accurate digital scan of your teeth and gums. Whether you're getting a crown, clear aligners, or a custom oral appliance, our 3D scanner ensures a faster, easier process from start to finish.
What Is a 3D Intraoral Scanner?
A 3D intraoral scanner is a handheld device that captures detailed, high-resolution digital images of the inside of your mouth. These images are stitched together in real-time to create a complete 3D model of your teeth, bite, and oral tissues. The process is fast, non-invasive, and eliminates the need for uncomfortable impression trays and putty.
The scanner is ideal for a wide range of treatments, from crowns and bridges to orthodontic planning, dental implants, and night guards.
What is it used for?
3D intraoral scanning is used for:
- Restorative treatments – Crowns, bridges, veneers, and onlays
- Orthodontics – Clear aligner therapy and treatment planning
- Implant dentistry – Accurate scanning for guided implant placement
- Custom appliances – Night guards, retainers, and sleep therapy devices
- Digital recordkeeping – Baseline scans for monitoring changes in oral health over time
With greater accuracy and patient comfort, 3D scanning supports nearly every facet of modern dental care.
