Bringing Dentistry Into the Modern Age
We don’t add new technology into the dental office simply because we can. If we believe that a new device can make your care more comfortable or efficient, we’ll do whatever we can to bring it to Litchfield Smiles and make it a part of our protocols. This results in appointments that not only feel modern, but improve the standard of your care. Feel free to learn more about our dental office’s additions below and how they make your visits better in every way!
How Dental Technology Makes Our Dentistry Better
CONVENIENT DIGITAL

STAY ENGAGED VIA OUR
Intraoral Camera
QUICK AND EFFICIENT
Digital X-Rays
Intraoral Camera
Do you feel left out or in the dark during your routine exam? Unsure of why we may recommend a certain treatment? Our advanced intraoral camera is small enough to capture high-resolution images of your many oral structures, then display them for doctor and patient viewing. Thanks to the tiny camera built into the handheld wand, it’s never been easier to navigate around your mouth, give patients a chance to review their teeth, gums, and other oral structures, and stay engaged during exams.
Digital X-Rays
With digital X-ray scanners at our dental office, there’s no need for our team to use harmful chemicals or work in photo developing rooms just so you can receive a clear picture of your oral health! Going digital means highly detailed X-rays are available in just a few minutes and radiation exposure is reduced by as much as 85 percent! Overall, this makes X-rays more convenient and safer for your entire family, no matter what type of scan you need.
Digital Impression System
Long gone are the days of biting into gray impression material just to create a dental restoration or series of clear aligners from Invisalign. Instead of forcing patients to use the gray goopy clay often found in dental offices, we opt for the 3 Shape Trios scanner. This handheld wand captures hundreds of photos of your teeth, gums, and other essential areas, then the onboard software uses these images to create a detailed 3D image for closer examination.
