Daxon Dentistry uses state-of-the-art technology in their facility to aid in the diagnosis and treatment of their patients, such as the T-Scan. This technology allows for more accurate diagnosis and successful treatment planning. Traditional analysis methods for evaluating a patient’s bite required the use of articulating paper which could only show the end result of occlusal contact. Unable to record which contact hit first or measure their relative strength, these methods could not produce a comprehensive assessment.
We use the T-Scan, a computerized occlusal (bite) analysis system. This hand-held device allows us to quickly and accurately determine how well balanced your bite is. Patients simply bite down on an ultra-thin sensor, and the device measures the time and force of the bite, sending the information to a computer which analyzes and displays the data in seconds. With this 3-D analysis, our dentists can quickly and accurately determine where the problems are with your bite.
