T-Scan

Here at Dynamic Dental Studio, We Use The Tekscan T-Scan

At Dynamic Dental Studio, we pride ourselves on utilising advanced technology to provide our

patients with the highest level of dental care. One such cutting-edge tool we employ is the

Tekscan T-Scan. Unlike traditional articulating paper, the T-Scan is an objective assessment tool

that enables us to evaluate occlusion more comprehensively by measuring both force and timing – two crucial parameters for assessing occlusion.

How does the Tekscan T-Scan work?

The T-Scan allows us to measure every individual contact during your bite and provides essential information about force balance. This innovative tool offers occlusal data that cannot be obtained by paper alone, including:

 - First contact

 - Maximum force

 - Last contact

 - Interferences

 - Warning loads on implants

Some of the treatments where we utilise the T-Scan include:

Occlusal Analysis & Adjustment

By incorporating T-Scan's real-time digital data, we can analyse and adjust dental occlusion with greater accuracy and efficiency. Our patients can witness the results first-hand, feeling confident that we are making precise occlusal adjustments in a single appointment.

Crowns and Bridges

With the T-Scan, we gain valuable insights into occlusal contact sequencing, relative force distribution per tooth, and precise occlusal contact mapping. This enables us to install crowns and bridges while ensuring the avoidance of potentially harmful occlusal forces. By leveraging digital occlusion data, we can identify and address contacts that may be detrimental to your restorations, resulting in a well-balanced occlusal scheme and a functional, aesthetically pleasing bite.

Implants

When it comes to implant dentistry, the T-Scan provides real-time occlusal contact

sequencing, relative force distribution per tooth, and implant loading alerts. This empowers us to install implant crowns while maintaining knowledgeable control over occlusal forces that could potentially damage or cause discomfort. By utilising digital occlusion data to design a timed occlusion scheme, we can protect dental implants by allowing the surrounding natural teeth with the absorptive periodontal ligament to bear the majority of the force. The result? Implant restorations that stand the test of time.

TMD/TMJ & Headaches

The T-Scan stands out as the only dental product that offers digital timing and force data relevant to your occlusion. This level of precision enables us to diagnose and treat temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD) more accurately. The T-Scan helps identify occlusal interferences that can negatively impact jaw joints and muscle function, leading to chronic issues such as condyle displacement, bruxism, clicking, popping, headaches, and neck

pain. By incorporating the Tekscan T-Scan into our dental practice, we aim to provide our patients with the most precise and effective treatments available. Experience the benefits of advanced technology by visiting Dynamic Dental Studio today.
