The iTero Element Scanner

The iTero Element Scanner is a state-of-the-art digital impression system that eliminates the need for messy putty in your mouth. With our iTero Element Scanner, we can digitally capture a detailed 3D model of your teeth and gums. Not only is this process far more comfortable than the old putty based impressions, but it's faster and can offer a clinical endpoint

• No goop or gag to worry about
• Fast, accurate impression
• Ideal for Invisalign clear aligners and retainers
• See a simulation of your potential post-treatment smile

During the impression process, you can breathe or swallow as you normally would. You can even pause during the process if you need to sneeze or want to ask a question. The scanner gives us a 3D model of your mouth that we use with all invisalign services including the Invisalign Outcome Simulator to show you what your new smile might look like. We can use this technology for Invisalign, orthodontic models, and crowns. Call today about this exciting new technology!

Healthy Gums, Happy Grins

If you're confident, you smile more. If you smile more, you feel more confident. But what if you don't want to show your smile because you're embarrassed by what you see in the mirror? It becomes a psychological short-circuit with effects that may ripple through your life.

At Modern Essence Dentistry, watching the transformation in patients discovering the benefits of dental health highlights our days. But you may not realize all the parts that bring a smile together and the critical support given by the gums and bone. If the teeth are the lead actors, these components are the supporting roles. Without the strenth and the beauty of healthy tissue, the smile falls flat.

Sometimes a new smile emerges from the simplest steps. Professional whitening, some gentle polishing, and reshaping of chipped edges can create an easy transformation. But every cosmetic enhancement requires a strong foundation to hold its value. Healthy bone keeps teeth firmly in place and supports the overlying gum tissue. If either the gums or the bone is damaged by neglect, disease, or sudden infections, even the finest teeth can be lost.

When nice teeth are surrounded by sound bone and firm gums, your smile really shines. We can help you bring a plan to life that rests on solid ground. Whether you need corrective treatment to your teeth's foundation or focused maintenance, we'll help you enjoy the benefits of optimal dental health.
