Intraoral Scanner
Intraoral Scanner Technology in Memphis, TN
If you have ever had dental impressions taken with putty-filled trays, you know how uncomfortable the experience can be. Our intraoral scanner in Memphis, TN eliminates that entirely. At Dr. Marrio Smiles, we use a compact digital wand to capture a precise 3D map of your teeth in minutes, with zero mess and zero gagging.
How the Intraoral Scanner Works
The scanner uses a small camera tip to capture thousands of images as it glides over your teeth. Software assembles these images into an accurate 3D digital model that Dr. Thomas can view, rotate, and analyze on screen. The entire process takes just a few minutes and is completely pain-free.
