Digital technology is making waves across the field of healthcare - and dentistry is no exception.New 3D imaging technology, in the form of what Sterling Dental Center now uses, makes taking impressions, and images for dental appliances and crowns not only easier, but far more accurate than the use of molds applied to people’s teeth.
Before this technology, dental offices would have to mix a kind of latex material, fill a mold, and apply that mold to the teeth. They would then have to wait several minutes with the mold inside the patient’s mouth, remove the mold, and (usually) repeat the process for the other row of teeth. This is not only usually uncomfortable, but also fairly time consuming.
With the 3M™ True Definition Scanner that Sterling Dental Center now uses, they can simply take digital impressions, without the use of any messy molds. These digital impressions are accurate, precise, and help the dental labs to quickly, and accurately create the dental crowns, bridges, and dentures that are needed. The files created by the scanner can also be used for Invisalign clear dental aligners as well. These scanned images are touted as being 99.7% accurate, leaving the older technologies in the dust.
Innovation of Dental Technology
Dentistry has come a long way over the years, and with each advancement in the technology, the patient feels it in the ease of treatment. This specific dental technology is only present in about 2-3% of dental clinics nationwide - which is not very much. Here are some of the benefits of using this digital scanner over the mold-based method:
1. More comfortable impressions
2. Faster appointments and turnaround
3. More accurate
Comfort for the patient is something that Dr. Bursich focuses heavily on in his practice in Sterling, Virginia, and it shows in his commitment to using up-to-date and innovative technology that makes the services they do just that: more comfortable.

In Dr. Bursich’s over 25 years of dental experience, I’m sure that he’s seen dentistry go through quite the transformation for the better. In fact, here’s what he has to say about how he feels about the importance of service and comfort:
“The most important service that I provide patients is that of taking a patient from some degree of dental distress, and helping them get healthy and functional. By helping them to overcome fear of pain and financial discomfort, I am able to help patients overcome years of neglect and suffering. I can restore their self-confidence and self-respect. We form a great team with our patients. Dr. Thomas Bursich
