Advanced Technology in Longmont and Berthoud, CO
At Mountain View Orthodontics, we provide our patients with access to modern, state-of-the-art orthodontic technology. These advanced tools allow us to deliver more accurate diagnoses, comfortable treatment experiences, and efficient, high-quality results.
Orthodontics has evolved significantly, and our technology helps make your care faster, more precise, and more comfortable than ever before.
iTero Intraoral Scanner
No more gagging – no more goop!
The iTero intraoral scanner has transformed the way we take impressions. Instead of traditional molds, we use a fast, comfortable digital scan to capture a highly accurate 3D image of your teeth.
This means:
- No messy impression material
- No discomfort or gag reflex
- Faster and more precise results
Your digital scan integrates seamlessly with other advanced technologies, including Invisalign treatment planning and 3D printing, allowing for a smoother and more efficient orthodontic experience.
CBCT Technology
Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) provides detailed 3D imaging that goes far beyond traditional X-rays. This advanced technology allows us to evaluate your teeth, jaw, and airway with exceptional accuracy.
CBCT helps us:
- Analyze airway structure and breathing pathways
- Locate impacted or displaced teeth
• Evaluate jaw relationships in three dimensions
• Assess bone quality and structure
This level of detail supports more precise diagnosis and personalized treatment planning.
3D Study Models
Three-dimensional study models are part of our digital work up. They replace the traditional plaster study models that required molds of your teeth. They provide us with an exact overview of your tooth alignment and bite relationship, and allow advanced analysis not previously possible with analogue methods.
Digital Bite Analysis
Have you ever had the feeling that your bite was uneven or that your teeth don’t meet appropriately? We use digital methods to record the contact relationship of your teeth, mark the contact points and measure the intensity of the contact. That way we can assess if your bite is balanced and in harmony. If not, we can fix this for you.
