At Martin Dental in Mesa, AZ, our dental services include digital X‑rays that enhance diagnosis by providing clear images of tooth decay, infection, or bone loss, while reducing radiation exposure compared to traditional film.

The instant images allow us to discuss findings during your visit, supporting informed treatment decisions.

 

Service Standards to Discuss

• Examine the 3‑D scan to assess bone with reduced radiation.

• Discuss instant image review to spot cavities, fractures, or gum disease.

• Confirm clear tooth anatomy visualization for precise treatment planning.

• Evaluate findings with Dr. Smith to choose restorative or preventive care.

 

What to Know About Dental Services

At our Mesa dental clinic, we use digital imaging such as CBCT and Trios 3Shape scanners to improve diagnosis.

Compared with traditional film X‑rays, the technology delivers clearer, three‑dimensional views while reducing radiation exposure, and images appear instantly for the dentist to evaluate.

This lets our general dentist and family dentistry team identify problems early, tailor treatment plans, and discuss options with patients before any procedure begins.

 

Keyword Pool

Dental services encompass any treatment offered at a dental clinic, while "family dentistry" refers specifically to thorough care for patients of all ages, and a general dentist delivers routine preventive and restorative work within that broader scope of dental care.

Digital imaging, which Dr. Chapin Smith uses, reduces radiation exposure, provides instant, high‑clarity views, and improves diagnostic accuracy.

 

Assessment and Service Options

At our Mesa office, Dr. Chapin Smith uses CBCT and Trios 3Shape scanners to guide assessments. The cone‑beam CT provides high‑resolution 3‑D images with notably lower radiation than traditional CT, allowing us to view bone levels, root anatomy, and hidden decay instantly on the screen.

The digital impressions eliminate messy PVS molds and capture precise tooth morphology for same‑day restorations. We evaluate the radiographic details, probing depths, and visual findings to decide whether a periodontal treatment, crown, or same‑day bridge is appropriate.

A limitation is that CBCT cannot detect early soft‑tissue lesions, which still require clinical examination. Learn more about our digital imaging on our technology page.

 

Questions Before Booking

How does CBCT imaging lower radiation while improving implant planning?

Our low‑dose CBCT captures a 3‑D view in one quick scan. This lets Dr. Martin see bone and nerves instantly and avoid extra x-rays.

Does the Trios 3Shape scanner eliminate traditional impressions for same‑day crowns?

The scanner records a digital impression in seconds. So we skip PVS molds and send the file to our in‑house Zirkonzahn mill for a same‑day crown.
