Scanner

We have incorporated intraoral scanners into our practice. This technology has become a fundamental resource in diagnosis, treatment planning and presentation of clinical cases. The scanners allow us to see the dental anatomy and its pathologies in detail through enlarged digital images. This allows us to detect diseases that are not visible during the dental check-up, enabling a more complete diagnosis and subsequent treatment.

iTERO

To remain at the forefront of technology and digital orthodontics, at SOL Dental Clinic we have incorporated the Itero intraoral scanner. A scanner, synonymous with precision and innovation, which allows us to plan orthodontic treatment by analysing our patients’ teeth quickly.

It is a process that allows digital reproduction by capturing 6,000 images per second, providing a faster, cleaner, and more environmentally friendly way to scan the patient’s teeth, while also avoiding the use of the uncomfortable silicone mass.

Thanks to this technology, the number of successful invisible orthodontic cases is higher, as this process allows us to anticipate case planning and schedule it with greater accuracy. This enables the patient to see their situation and more easily understand the doctor’s explanations. Additionally, the patient will be able to see a proposal of how their teeth would look before starting the treatment, improving communication between the doctor and the patient.

Additionally, we reduce the number of necessary adjustments, allowing the patient to have a better experience with their aligners.

OMNICAM de Cerec

Our SOL 1 Day commitment is how we refer to the process of smile reconstruction in less than 24 hours.

CAD stands for Computer-Aided Design, and CAM for Computer-Aided Manufacturing. This technology involves the design and production of extremely precise dental pieces in just 1 DAY.

The reconstruction process with CAD-CAM technology (CEREC system) consists of three phases:

1- Scanning of the tooth or dental implant on the model. An intraoral scanner allows us to capture the patient’s treatment area with maximum precision.

2- Design, using 3D software, of the aesthetic prosthesis. With the digitised image, using state-of-the-art software, we design the piece to be made with great precision.

3- Robotic milling of the part from the design information. The milling machine creates a block of the chosen material. In this way we obtain an exact reproduction of the dental structure in a few minutes.

PIC DENTAL

Implant-prosthetics with PiC Dental technology becomes a reliable, efficient, and precise treatment.

Precision is essential for the success of a fixed prosthesis. Specifically, implant prosthetics is the process used for oral rehabilitation of one or several dental pieces. This implantology treatment can be divided into three stages:

  • Diagnosis and case evaluation.
  • Procedure for placing titanium fixtures that are embedded into the bone.
  • Creation and placement of the prosthesis.

In this third stage, the PiC Dental Camera technology comes into play to achieve what we know in dentistry as the Passive Fit.

What is passive fit?

When creating a replica of the dental pieces, it is essential that they fit the mouth and implants with the highest accuracy. The passive fit is achieved when the prosthesis fits and molds perfectly to the surface of the implant.

PiC Dental Camera, the leap towards precision.

Currently, PiC Dental is the most advanced technique for obtaining a digital impression of multiple implants. The system achieves a precise impression regardless of the number of implants, distances, or angulations.

The fit of this technique achieves a precision of 6 microns. In comparison, a human hair has a diameter of 50-70 microns, and a grain of beach sand measures 90 microns.

Additionally, this technique enhances the development of prostheses through the CAD/CAM system used in the laboratory.

The summary of the procedure is based on:

  • Implant capture: Using the PiC camera device and photogrammetry technology, the exact position of the implants is obtained.
  • Tissue registration: The next step is to scan the soft tissues, such as the gums and the remaining dental pieces. This is done with an intraoral scanner.
  • CAD-CAM model: After obtaining the position of the implants and the rest of the tissues, a digital model is created that faithfully replicates the patient’s mouth. With this information, the design of the dental pieces is developed.

What this technology achieves is an improved design capability by having a model that is true to reality. This makes designing and manufacturing the prosthesis a much more comfortable and efficient task, which represents a great benefit for the patient.
