Caledonia Orthodontic Care
Hannapel Pellillo Orthodontics is proud to offer the latest orthodontic technology to provide the highest level of care. We use state-of-the-art advancements in both our treatment methods and practice management to ensure you always receive the best care possible. Here’s what you need to know about the technology we use in our office.
3Shape TRIOS® Intraoral Scanner
While some orthodontists may still use dental putty, our 3Shape TRIOS Intraoral Scanner allows us to take a precise digital impression of your teeth. Our orthodontists also use this intraoral camera to capture detailed images of your teeth, gums, tongue, and the rest of your mouth.
​
Unlike older dental technology, the intraoral camera features a slim design that allows our orthodontists to view the inside of your mouth from a wide range of angles. We can digitally store, print, or delete the images captured by the camera as needed.
Formlabs 3D Printer
We use our Formlabs 3D printer to create precise models of your teeth right here in our office. This allows us to show you exactly what the inside of your mouth looks like and helps us develop your personalized orthodontic treatment plan.
Planmeca ProMax® X-Ray
Digital x-rays are the way of the future! With the Planmeca ProMax, we can capture an x-ray of your mouth using only a fraction of the radiation required by traditional x-rays. The panoramic x-ray machine rotates around your head to provide a 360-degree view of your teeth, sinuses, and bone structure. Because panoramic x-rays are more comprehensive than standard x-rays, they don’t need to be taken as frequently.
