Our technology
Technology that quietly does the heavy lifting.
We have invested heavily in the tools that allow us to plan, execute, and deliver dentistry at a higher level. The investment is not about novelty. It is about giving our patients access to better, more precise, more predictable care.
Yomi Robotic Implant System
Robotic guidance for dental implant surgery
Yomi is the first and only FDA-cleared robotic system for dental implant surgery. We use it primarily for full-arch All-on-X cases and select complex implant procedures, where its real-time tracking and sub-millimeter accuracy provide the most value.
What it does: Yomi translates the digital surgical plan into the procedure itself. The doctor remains in full control throughout, but the robot ensures the drill follows the planned path with a level of precision the human hand cannot match alone. Yomi uses haptic robotic guidance — physically constraining the drill's position, depth, and orientation — to translate the digital plan into the procedure with sub-millimeter precision. If the patient moves during the procedure, Yomi tracks the movement. If the drill is heading off-plan, the robot resists. The result is implant placement that closely matches the digital plan — every time.
Why it matters: Better placement contributes to better long-term outcomes. For full-arch cases, where multiple implants must work together as a coordinated foundation, robotic precision is especially valuable.
Custom 3D-printed surgical guides
A digital workflow Dr. Jackson manages from start to finish
For most single-tooth and multi-tooth implant cases, we use a custom 3D-printed surgical guide rather than the Yomi robot. The guide is a small, precision-fit device that locks into place over the teeth and physically directs the drill along the planned path.
Dr. Jackson personally designs and 3D-prints every surgical guide for his own implant cases, in our in-house lab. He has produced more than 300 of them. He plans every implant in three-dimensional software himself, never outsourced, and the same person who plans the implant designs the guide and places the implant. That continuity is meaningful to the predictability and quality of the outcome.
CBCT 3D Imaging
Three-dimensional vision before any surgical care
A standard dental X-ray is a flat, two-dimensional image. A CBCT (cone-beam computed tomography) scan is something different — a three-dimensional view of your jaw, your bone density, your nerve canals, your sinuses, the roots of every tooth, and the relationships between all of these structures.
We capture a CBCT scan for every implant case and many surgical cases. The scan takes under a minute and uses significantly less radiation than a medical CT scan. The information it provides is irreplaceable for planning safe, accurate, and predictable care.
iTero Digital Scanning
Comfortable, high-resolution digital impressions
The iTero scanner captures the surface of your teeth and gums in three dimensions, producing a high-resolution digital model in minutes. The digital scan transmits directly to our lab partners or our in-house design software, depending on the case.
We have two iTero scanners in the office, both on wheels. We move them between operatories as needed, so the right tool is always available where it is needed.
Instarisa 3D Facial Scanner
Facially-driven design for full-arch and esthetic cases
The Instarisa 3D facial scanner is one of the more unusual pieces of technology in our office, and one of the most valuable for our All-on-X and esthetic cases. It captures a three-dimensional scan of the patient's face — the relationship between the teeth, lips, smile, jaw position, and overall facial structure — and integrates that data with the CBCT and intraoral scan to allow for what is called facially-driven design.
In simpler terms: instead of designing the final teeth based on the existing teeth alone, we design the final teeth based on how they will look in your face. Tooth length, lip support, smile width, midline, the way the smile frames your features — all of it is part of the design from the very beginning.
For full-arch All-on-X cases, this matters enormously. The final prosthesis is not just a set of teeth; it is the way your face looks for the rest of your life. The Instarisa scanner allows us to plan, preview, and design with the entire face in view from the start, which produces final results that look natural in the way teeth and smiles are supposed to look natural.
For esthetic and full-mouth cases, the same principle applies — we design with the face in view, not in isolation from it.
In-house digital dental lab
Design and production under our roof
Our digital lab is equipped with Exocad design software and dental 3D printers — the tools used by leading dental laboratories around the world. We use the lab to design and produce many of the items that support our patient care:
- Custom surgical guides for implant cases (designed and printed by Dr. Jackson personally)
- Provisional prostheses for All-on-X cases (delivered the day after surgery)
- Provisional implant crowns for front-tooth cases (delivered the day after surgery)
- Models, study casts, and other components that support our restorative and surgical care
For final crowns and certain other restorations, we send our iTero scans to a trusted outside lab and receive completed crowns within approximately a week. For implant and surgical cases — where coordination and the ability to refine in real time matter most — having the lab in our office makes a meaningful difference.
Modern patient communication
A simpler, smoother patient experience
Our patient communication system handles the parts of dental care that have nothing to do with your teeth — but that affect every visit. Through our patient platform, patients can:
- Complete digital intake forms before their first visit
- Receive appointment reminders by text or email
- Communicate with our office between visits
The platform is HIPAA-compliant and integrated into how our office runs. For patients who prefer paper forms or phone calls, we are equally happy to accommodate that approach. The technology is there to serve patients, not to replace personal interaction.
Why we invest in technology
Technology that earns its place
We are deliberate about the technology we adopt. The systems above are in our office because they each contribute meaningfully to patient care: more accurate planning, more comfortable scans, better surgical outcomes, smoother patient communication. When new technology emerges that genuinely improves care, we evaluate it carefully and add it when it earns its place.
The result is a practice that is modern without being gadget-driven, and that uses every piece of equipment intentionally.
