Dexis Digital Scanner: Impressions Without the Goop
Creative Dental of Syosset takes digital impressions with a Dexis intraoral scanner. A small handheld wand traces the outline of your teeth and gums and builds a detailed on-screen model in minutes. There are no trays, no putty, and no gag reflex from a mouthful of rubbery material. The scan captures the prepared tooth and sends that data to the dental lab, which uses it to design crowns, bridges, and veneers that fit accurately the first time. For patients who dreaded the old molds, this is the part of the visit that feels the most different.
His office is equipped with the best technology, and his staff is incredibly professional and welcoming.

Vatech 3D Cone-Beam CT for Implant Planning
For implants, extractions, and other surgical planning, Dr. Mozner uses a Vatech cone-beam CT (CBCT) scanner. A single quick scan produces a 3D view of your jawbone, nerves, and sinuses that a flat X-ray cannot show. That detail lets Dr. Mozner check bone density and place an implant with very little tissue manipulation, which is a large part of why the procedure stays comfortable. The practice also keeps panoramic and standard digital X-rays on site, so the imaging your treatment needs is captured here rather than referred out. To go deeper on 3D imaging for implants, see our Dental CT Scan in Syosset page.
Dental Technology That Makes Visits Calmer
Digital scanning and 3D imaging earn their place by making your visit calmer and faster. Scans replace the impression trays that used to trigger a gag reflex. Sharper imaging means fewer remakes and fewer return trips. Dr. Mozner pairs that with nitrous oxide, gentler injection technique, and noise-canceling headphones for patients who feel anxious in the chair. The goal is a visit you can sit through without dread.
First time here and it was a great experience! Barely any wait time! The office was clean and organized. The dentist understood my fear with dental equipment from past experiences in a different office so he and his assistant made sure I was comfortable and even provided options such as noise canceling headphones!

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Dental Technology
What kind of digital scanner do you use?
We use a Dexis intraoral scanner. A small handheld wand captures a detailed digital model of your teeth in minutes, with no trays and no rubber impression material. The scan is used to design crowns, bridges, and veneers.
Do you still take traditional impressions with molds?
No. The Dexis scanner replaces the old putty impressions, so there is nothing to bite into and no gag reflex from impression trays.
What is the 3D cone-beam CT scanner used for?
The Vatech cone-beam CT scanner produces a 3D image of your jawbone, nerves, and sinuses. Dr. Mozner uses it to check bone density and plan implants and surgical extractions accurately. We also have on-site panoramic and standard X-rays.
Are your dental scans and X-rays safe?
Yes. Digital scanning uses no radiation, and the cone-beam CT uses a low level of radiation, far less than a medical CT scan.
Are crowns made the same day in the office?
No. Your crown is designed from the Dexis digital scan and made by our dental lab, which lets us use strong materials like zirconia for a long-lasting, natural-looking result.
