See your future smile, before treatment even begins!

Our iTero scanner creates a detailed 3D image of your teeth and bite, making the process more comfortable and accurate. No messy impressions needed.

The best part?
You can actually watch your teeth move onscreen and preview your end result Dr Tobin has planned before braces are even on.

From fully customised treatment planning to a sneak peek of your new smile, this is orthodontics the modern way

At TheOC we use the Planmeca ProMax system, one of the most advanced and low dose dental imaging tools in the world. 🌎

As a Specialist Orthodontist, accuracy and patient safety are paramount in every diagnostic decision I make. That’s why the SmartPan feature on the Planmeca ProMax X-ray system has become an indispensable part of my practice.

SmartPan uses artificial intelligence to automatically select the sharpest panoramic image from multiple reconstructions based on patient anatomy and positioning. This ensures consistently high-quality, diagnostic images, even in challenging cases, such as patients with asymmetries.

For orthodontics, this means:
✔️ Clearer visualisation of developing dentition and eruption paths
✔️ Precise identification of impacted, ectopic or supernumerary teeth
✔️ Better assessment of asymmetries, crowding and space relationships

SmartPan takes panoramic imaging to a new level. Smarter, safer and sharper 🤓
