One of the technologies our dentists may use when providing your care is 3D printing. This state-of-the-art technology is used to create highly accurate restorations and oral appliances, improving your oral health and smile both now and long-term. 3D printing is known for creating restorations that have a smooth and natural looking finish, giving you a beautiful result. This technology also allows Dr. Patricia Breen and Dr. Elyse Patrella to complete your entire treatment in-office, giving our dentists quality control to ensure you receive individualized and high-quality treatments as well as reducing your overall treatment time and cost.
When you receive a restoration or appliance created with 3D printing, our dentists will first take a digital impression of your teeth and mouth. Your restoration or appliance will then be meticulously designed and printed. We will then check that it fits properly before completing your treatment.
Common restorations and appliances created using 3D printing include:
- Dental crowns
- Dental bridges
- Night guards and athletic mouth guards
- Indirect bonding trays
- Denture bases
- Dental and orthodontic models
- Castable crowns, bridges and partial denture frameworks
