At Spring Hope Family Dentistry, we use digital imaging technology to deliver treatment that is precise, fast, and comfortable. When you choose our dental office in Spring Hope, NC, you can expect to be treated with top dental technologies like:
3D Digital X-Rays (Coming fall of 2024)
3D digital X-rays, also known as Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT), provide a more detailed and comprehensive view of your oral health compared to traditional 2D X-rays. This advanced technology is used to:
- Diagnose complex dental problems: CBCT can help identify issues like impacted wisdom teeth, cysts, tumors, and jaw fractures that might be difficult to see with 2D X-rays.
- Plan dental procedures: Before surgeries like dental implants or root canals, CBCT can provide a precise 3D image of the bone and surrounding structures, allowing for more accurate planning and a higher chance of success.
- Evaluate orthodontic cases: For patients considering braces or other orthodontic treatments, CBCT can help assess the position of teeth and jawbones in detail, ensuring a more effective treatment plan.
- Monitor treatment progress: CBCT can be used to track the healing process after dental procedures or to monitor the effectiveness of orthodontic treatment.
To learn more about 3D digital X-rays and how they can benefit your oral health, contact our office. Our experienced dental team can discuss your specific needs and determine if CBCT is appropriate for you.

Imagine having a clear, detailed view of the inside of your mouth. With intraoral cameras, that's exactly what you get. These small, handheld devices capture high-quality images that help your dentist:

- Explain treatment plans: Seeing is believing. Visual aids like intraoral images can make it easier to understand your treatment options and why they're recommended.
- Track progress: Intraoral cameras can monitor the healing process after dental procedures or assess the effectiveness of orthodontic treatment.
Diagnodent: A Revolutionary Tool for Cavity Detection (Coming fall of 2024)
Diagnodent is a state-of-the-art laser technology used to detect cavities at their earliest stages. Unlike traditional X-rays, Diagnodent can identify enamel demineralization before it progresses into a full-blown cavity. This early detection allows for less invasive treatments and can help prevent more extensive dental work in the future.
Benefits of Diagnodent
Early Cavity Detection: Diagnodent can detect cavities that may be invisible to traditional methods, allowing for prompt treatment and preventing the need for larger fillings or crowns.- Minimally Invasive Treatment: By catching cavities early, Diagnodent can often be used in conjunction with fluoride treatments to remineralize the affected area, avoiding the need for drilling and filling.
- Enhanced Oral Health: Regular Diagnodent screenings can help maintain optimal oral health and prevent more serious dental problems.
