Dr. Roderick VanSurksum may use a 3D soft tissue facial scan during your exam and treatment planning. This state-of-the-art technology aids in planning your treatment and simulating your treatment outcome so that we can ensure you receive high-quality, individualized care. To make an appointment with our oral surgeon and learn more about 3D soft tissue facial scans in Minnetonka and Excelsior, Minnesota, call Facial Designs, P.A. today.
Traditionally, two-dimensional scans have been used to examine the mouth and provide treatments. These images are static and dependent on the angle from which the image is captured, which makes them difficult to work with and prevents our oral surgeon from manipulating the angle and position of the head to gain a more comprehensive understanding of your oral health needs. A 3D scan makes it possible for our oral surgeon and team to tip, tilt and change the angle of the scan, visualizing your face and mouth from every angle. This type of scan also allows us to view the face, teeth, mouth, lips, and hard and soft oral tissues so that we can make a more comprehensive diagnosis and treatment plan as well as virtually designing your final result.
