Image Dental & Technology
At Image Dental, we believe that advanced technology plays a vital role in delivering exceptional care. Our commitment goes beyond offering the newest tools — Dr. Ngo and our team continually train in the latest techniques to ensure every innovation we adopt truly enhances your results and experience.
Digital Scanning Technology
We use advanced intraoral scanners to create precise digital impressions of your mouth. These digital files can be combined with CT scan data to design surgical guides and even plan your final restorations with exceptional accuracy.
In-Office 3D Printing
We use advanced 3D printing technology to create custom orthodontic aligners, dentures, retainers, and even certain dental restorations — all right here in our office.
Having this technology in-house allows us to deliver faster, more comfortable care while reducing wait times for many treatments.
Invisalign
Invisalign offers a modern, discreet way to straighten teeth using a series of custom-made, clear aligners. Unlike traditional metal braces, Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible — making them a popular choice for adults and teens who want to improve their smile without drawing attention.
The treatment begins with a detailed 3D scan of your teeth, which is used to create a personalized plan. You'll wear a series of aligners, each gradually shifting your teeth closer to their ideal position. Because the aligners are removable, you can eat, drink, brush, and floss with ease — offering a level of flexibility that braces can't match.
BioClear
BioClear offers a modern, advanced approach to dental bonding. Using a flowable composite and a slim mylar matrix, we can sculpt new restorations directly around your natural teeth. This technique is especially effective for filling spaces and eliminating black triangles at the base of teeth, creating a stronger, more natural-looking result.
Laser
Lasers offer a range of benefits in modern dental care, and we’re proud to incorporate two advanced laser technologies at Image Dental. Our diode laser allows us to treat gum disease and perform gum recontouring with greater precision — minimizing discomfort, reducing bleeding, and helping eliminate bacteria to better control infection.
We also use Waterlase technology, which combines laser energy with water to gently remove tooth enamel without the need for traditional dental drills. This approach makes treatments more comfortable and helps protect healthy tooth structure.
Shadewave Computerized Color Matching
While the human eye can detect subtle color differences, lighting conditions and natural variation can make it difficult to achieve a perfect match. Shadewave’s advanced computerized color analysis removes the guesswork, helping us precisely match your restorations to your natural teeth for seamless, beautiful results.
Laser Cavity Detection
Traditional cavity detection often relied on sharp dental tools and visual inspections — methods that can miss early signs of decay. At Image Dental, we use advanced laser cavity detection technology to identify cavities that may be invisible to the naked eye or even hidden on x-rays. This system is especially helpful for detecting decay around existing metal fillings. By using laser technology, we can catch problems earlier and verify decay more accurately, ensuring that we only treat teeth when truly necessary.
