Technology

The Faces of the Mission Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery uses some of the most advanced 3-D imaging technology, laser surgery systems, and software available.

 

For your convenience the equipment is available right in our offices.
This saves you a trip to another location.

 

It also makes detailed information readily available to the surgical team, who can optimize your care based on purely on accessibility of high quality information.

 

Our onsite technology capability allows.

YOMI

The first and only FDA-cleared robotic system for dental surgery. Through a combination of haptic feedback, intuitive visualization , and audio cues, Yomi help us to place implants with superior accuracy and precision.

PIEZOSURGERY 3

Our Piezosurgery 3 device provides maximum surgical precision for cutting bone tissue while causing minimal impact to the soft tissue.

Multiple studies have shown that this bone surgery instrument leads to faster healing than traditional surgical tools.

I-CAT® SCANNER

In a matter of seconds, the i-CAT scanner takes hundreds of high definition images of hard and soft tissue. The software used with the i-CAT can reassemble these images into three-dimensional interactive digital reproductions of the head, neck, jaw and face.

Dr. Luque can interface with the digital representation even performing a virtual surgery on the affected area before the real

SURGITRON

Radiosurgery is a noninvasive form of surgery utilizing radiowave technology to perform precise surgical procedures.

Unlike lasers, the high frequency of our Surgitron device cuts and coagulates soft tissues with little impact on surrounding tissue.

3D PRINTER

Our surgical guides are home made on our 3D printer that allows for multiple appliances to be printed at once. Accuracy is also improved since 3D printers convert digital images into physical objects by printing 16-micron-thick layers one on top of the  other. Multiple studies have shown that this bone surgery instrument leads to faster healing than traditional surgical tools.

INTRAORAL SCANNER

An intraoral scanner has vastly improve the field of dentistry. This innovative device captures optical impressions a can wonderfully enhance the dental health care experience.  Patient comfort is essential. Scans offer a faster, tolerable, and much more comfortable approach than the conventional use of impressions. Patients will not experience gag reflexes or get unpleasant odor or taste that are usually related to physical impressions. A lot of children complain about these and hence, hesitate to visit a dental expert. Further, patients will not worry about feeling suffocated. All these make patients more comfortable and improve their experience.
