Our Technology

How Our Technology Improves Your Dental Experience

Every piece of technology in our office serves a single purpose: a better experience for you. Rather than relying on outdated methods, we use digital systems that help Dr. Shah diagnose conditions earlier, plan treatments with greater accuracy, and deliver restorations that fit precisely. The result is fewer appointments, less discomfort, and a clearer understanding of your oral health at every step. If you're visiting us for the first time, our patient information page walks you through what to expect.

3D Cone Beam CT Scanning

Our 3D cone beam CT scanner captures a complete, three-dimensional view of your teeth, jawbone, nerves, and sinuses in a single, quick scan. This level of detail is especially valuable when planning dental implants, evaluating complex root canal cases, or assessing jawbone health before surgery. Traditional two-dimensional X-rays can miss critical structures — 3D imaging helps Dr. Shah see the full picture, which means more predictable outcomes and fewer surprises during treatment.

Digital X-Rays & Panoramic Imaging

Digital X-rays produce high-resolution images instantly, with up to 80% less radiation than conventional film. Because the images appear on-screen within seconds, Dr. Shah can review them with you during your appointment and point out exactly what she sees. Panoramic imaging captures your entire mouth — from jaw joints to every tooth — in one sweep, giving our team a comprehensive baseline for tracking changes over time. Together, these tools help us detect decay, bone loss, and other concerns at their earliest stages.

iTero Digital Impressions

The iTero digital scanner replaces traditional impression methods with a comfortable, precise alternative. A small handheld wand glides over your teeth and captures thousands of data points to create an exact 3D model of your mouth. This technology is integral to treatments like Invisalign, crowns, bridges, and other restorations where fit matters most.

No More Putty Molds

If you've ever had a goopy putty tray pressed into your mouth and held there for minutes, you already know why digital impressions are a welcome change. The iTero scan takes just a few minutes, triggers no gagging, and delivers a more accurate result than traditional molds. That accuracy translates directly into restorations and aligners that fit better from the start — meaning fewer adjustments and follow-up visits for you.

Intraoral Cameras & Wellness Scans

Our intraoral cameras capture detailed, magnified images of the inside of your mouth and display them on a chairside screen in real time. You can see exactly what Dr. Shah sees — from early signs of decay to hairline cracks in existing fillings. This visual transparency helps you understand your diagnosis and feel confident in the treatment plan we recommend together. Wellness scans complement the cameras by mapping soft tissue changes over time, supporting early detection of conditions that may otherwise go unnoticed.

Ultrasonic Scaling

Ultrasonic scalers use gentle vibrations and a fine water stream to break apart tartar and plaque buildup below and above the gumline. Compared to manual scaling alone, ultrasonic instruments are designed to be more comfortable, more thorough, and faster. They're especially helpful for patients with sensitive gums or early-stage gum disease, as the technology allows our hygienists to clean effectively with less pressure. The dental technology Freehold NJ families experience here at Premier Arts Dental is chosen specifically because it helps you feel at ease during routine care.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What is 3D cone beam CT scanning used for in dentistry?

3D cone beam CT scanning creates a detailed three-dimensional image of your teeth, jawbone, nerves, and surrounding structures. Dentists use it to plan dental implant placement, evaluate complex root canal anatomy, assess wisdom teeth, and diagnose jawbone conditions that traditional X-rays may not reveal.

How are digital impressions different from traditional molds?

Digital impressions use a handheld scanner to capture a precise 3D image of your teeth in minutes, eliminating the need for messy putty trays. The result is a more accurate fit for crowns, aligners, and other restorations, with greater comfort during the process.

Are digital X-rays safer than traditional X-rays?

Digital X-rays use up to 80% less radiation compared to conventional film X-rays, making them a safer option for routine dental imaging. They also produce instant, high-resolution images that can be enlarged and enhanced for more accurate diagnosis.

What can I see with an intraoral camera during my visit?

An intraoral camera captures detailed, magnified images of the inside of your mouth and displays them on a screen in real time. You can see areas of decay, cracks, worn fillings, gum inflammation, and other conditions — helping you understand exactly what your dentist sees and why specific treatment may be recommended.
