At Doctors Lake Family Dental in Fleming Island, FL, we're dedicated to providing you with the most comfortable and precise dental care possible. One of the ways we achieve this is through our state-of-the-art digital intraoral scanners.

Our commitment to excellent patient experiences means using advanced technology to improve accuracy, efficiency, and comfort throughout your visits.
What Are Digital Intraoral Scanners?
Digital intraoral scanners are cutting-edge devices that capture highly accurate 3D images of your teeth and gums.
Instead of using messy, uncomfortable traditional molds, these scanners use a small handheld wand to scan your mouth. As the scanner moves around your teeth, it instantly creates detailed digital impressions that our team views on a computer screen.
How We Use Intraoral Scanners
At Doctors Lake Family Dental, we use this advanced technology in many ways, including:
- Invisalign® treatment planning
- Dental implant planning
- Restorative dentistry: Designing restorations like inlays, onlays, fillings, crowns, and bridges
- Cosmetic dentistry: Digital smile design and planning for veneers, bonding, and other cosmetic treatments
- Oral cancer screenings: The VELScope® early screening system for mouth cancer
As you can see, intraoral scanners are flexible and a mainstay of our diagnostic and treatment approaches at Doctors Lake Family Dental.
Benefits of Digital Intraoral Scanners
Digital intraoral scanners make dental experiences smoother and easier.
- Comfort: The most immediate advantage is comfort—no more bulky, uncomfortable molds that make you gag or feel uneasy. Instead, you can relax while we gather the images we need.
- Speed: Intraoral scanners can capture thousands of images per second, instantly creating an incredibly detailed record of your teeth. This means we can discuss treatment options with you in real-time.
- Accuracy: Digital impressions are highly accurate, which means restorations like crowns or veneers fit better and last longer.
- Continuity of Care: Digital files are easily stored. We have instant access to all your previous scans should you need adjustments or new treatments in the future, which streamlines your care.
Ultimately, intraoral scanners can enhance your care by making the entire process faster, more comfortable, and more convenient.
