Smile Archiving
Using the newest technology in digital dentistry, Dr. Ruggiero will be capable of scanning your smile to capture the exact shape, size, and shades of your teeth. Along with high-quality photography and model fabrication records, your oral cavity information will be stored to access for any reason.
This service can be instrumental in the case of trauma, for instance. Dr. Ruggiero will be able to access your digital files to recreate a front tooth in the case of a fracture. Prior to a patient arriving at the office, Dr. Ruggiero can fabricate any tooth in your mouth of the exact shape and color and be prepared to treat the patient accordingly. This will save the patient time and will be useful to recreate the patients smile with prosthodontic and cosmetic dentistry.
This service will be part of new patients smile and occlusal analysis or can be done at request as a separate service.
