Dr. Grace invested in an i-CAT 3-dimensional x-ray system in 2016, immediately after she bought the practice. Since then, she has applied modern imaging technology to take orthodontic diagnose and treatment planning to a higher level. Using the i-CAT technology, she successfully diagnosed tumors, infections narrow airway and other abnormalities.

Dr. Grace invested in an intra-oral scanner in 2019. If you don't like getting a physical model of your teeth made, then a digital scan is your option. The digital models are all kept in our computer. If you lose/break your retainer, we can make a new one right away just from a simple phone call from you.
