Our Technology

The CBCT systems used by dental professionals rotate around the patient, capturing data using a cone-shaped X-ray beam. These data are used to reconstruct a three-dimensional (3D) image of the following regions of the patient’s anatomy: dental (teeth); oral and maxillofacial region (mouth, jaw, and neck).

3D Facial Scans provide a powerful and easy-to-use 3D face scanning solution, enabling dentists to incorporate 3D facial scans into the dental planning process. We scan your face and create a 3D rendering of your facial features. This allows us to keep working on our planning and laboratory creation of your smile with “YOUR VIRTUAL YOU”.

Thanks to digital impressions, we can take accurate records of your teeth quickly and comfortably. There is now no need for uncomfortable, unpleasant impression material that can cause gagging. Instead, we use a hand-held scanner to scan your teeth and capture a precise picture of them in a way that causes minimum discomfort to you.

At Houston Dental Implant & Cosmetic Center, we are one of very few dental practices in the US to have our own in-house dental laboratory. This means that we can provide an unparalleled level of service when it comes to the hardware in your dental treatment. Our state-of-the-art dental lab is equipped with the latest technology to let us create customized dental prostheses in our office.
