Orthodontic Technology

At Dean Orthodontics, our staff has invested in an array of orthodontic technology to ensure patients get the best possible experience from each visit. New devices and techniques can reduce pain, improve recovery time, and speed up treatment plans. We consistently evaluate the options on the market for their efficiency and benefits, so you can be sure you’re getting modernized care.

Orthodontics Technology in Southeast Ohio

With locations in Zanesville and Cambridge, we have the following technology available to give you the best possible treatments:

• iTero Scanner: The iTero scanner can take 3D impressions of the patient’s mouth with a special, radiation-free laser. This eliminates the messiness of clay impressions, which are uncomfortable for the patient and not as accurate as those taken with an iTero scanner.
• Digital X-rays: Similar to a digital camera, a digital X-ray is connected to a computer, and its sensors are typically cleaner, so your orthodontist doesn’t have to make guesses.
• Diode laser treatment: This laser is powerful enough to remove extra tissue from the gums and cheeks but gentle enough to reduce recovery time. It’s an excellent option for people who want a fast, effective procedure that ends in a more attractive smile.
• uLab Systems aligners: There are a variety of brands of clear aligners on the market today, but our staff was impressed with the versatility and features of this manufacturer’s products. For instance, we can take a hybrid approach to our patients who can use aligners for the top arch and fixed appliances for the bottom.

Orthodontists Who Care

All orthodontists are expected to provide quality care for their patients. However, quality will vary for each person in change, and what they define as acceptable may not always be what a patient defines as acceptable. Numerous improvements have been made to the orthodontia field, and not all businesses have been able to keep up with everything.

When you want a professional that goes the extra mile, Dean Orthodontics has done the legwork to update our offices according to the latest research and products. By taking these extra steps, we can ensure our modern-day patients receive care that lives up to their expectations.

As the years roll on, we’ll continue to look for products that align with our larger values. We ultimately want patients to have a hassle-free experience when they come to us. Whether that means updating our technology or improving our communication methods, we look for tools that offer value to staff and patients.
