Many dental procedures can change the way you bite. Fillings, crowns, bridges, extractions, and orthodontics as well as many more. For over 100 years, dentists have relied on paper covered in ink to see where the upper and lower teeth contact. But this old technique gives no information on the force, timing, and balance of your bite. And that’s exactly what makes you feel your bite is “off.” We use the T-Scan NOVUS system that displays all this information on a computer so your dentist can use it to get your bite right, with minimal tooth loss from guessing ... so that you aren’t subjected to the time and expense of unnecessary dental office visits.
Tek Scan is beneficial for a variety of conditions, including: • Diagnosing bite problems that contribute to jaw pain, headaches, or teeth grinding • Assessing the effectiveness of orthodontic treatments • Planning restorative dental work such as crowns, bridges, or implants to ensure proper bite alignment • Evaluating and improving the fit of dentures or other dental prosthetics
"I have had a LOT of dentists in my life (I've moved a zillion times) but the folks at Erskine Family are THE BEST I've EVER had by far. I just had two fillings redone in spots that have previously been very painful and problematic for other dentists to deal with. At Erskine, it could not have been a better experience, and the resin fillings look beautiful. They are so skilled, nice, helpful, and organized. Thank you all,"
