What Are the Benefits of Digital Impressions?

Digital impressions have revolutionized the dental industry, offering numerous advantages over traditional methods. At Sho Dental Laboratory, we incorporate digital impressions to ensure a faster, more comfortable dental experience for our patients.
Enhanced Comfort and Convenience
One of the major benefits of digital impressions is the improved comfort for patients. Traditional impressions required messy molds that were placed in the mouth for several minutes, often causing discomfort and gagging. With digital impressions, the process is much more comfortable, as it uses a small, handheld scanner that captures highly accurate 3D images of your teeth and gums.
The procedure is quick and non-invasive, taking only a few minutes to complete. This allows patients to feel more at ease and eliminates the stress often associated with traditional impression techniques. At Sho Dental Laboratory, we utilize digital impressions to create precise models for restorations, helping us provide excellent results with less discomfort for our patients.
Precision and Speed in Treatment
Digital impressions offer enhanced accuracy and speed compared to traditional methods. The 3D imaging technology captures highly detailed data, which helps eliminate the inaccuracies that sometimes occur with physical molds. This precision ensures that restorations, such as crowns, veneers, and implants, fit more comfortably and naturally, reducing the need for adjustments.
Additionally, the data can be transmitted electronically to Sho Dental Laboratory immediately, speeding up the process and reducing wait times for patients. The faster turnaround time allows for quicker treatments, meaning you can enjoy your new smile sooner. With the use of digital impressions, we can ensure a smoother, more efficient process, ultimately improving the overall patient experience.
