Why Choose An Orthodontist in Seattle WA?

For most people, a beautiful smile is the most obvious benefit of orthodontic treatment. But for Dr. Christopher Riolo and his expert orthodontic team, the correct function of your bite is just as important. A malocclusion, or bad bite, can cause serious problems over a lifetime if left untreated. Loss of tooth structure, TMJ problems and bone loss can occur if a malocclusion is not corrected before permanent damage occurs.

When it comes to the challenges and complexities of orthodontic treatment, most people prefer a specialist well trained and experienced. You can depend on Riolo Orthodontics for the best of both worlds: a well functioning bite and the smile of your life! Dr Riolo specializes in esthetic orthodontic solutions, such as braces behind the teeth so know one will know you are wearing them. Riolo Orthodontic is the leading provider of the Incognito bracket system in Seattle. You can find a number of video's describing the Incognito system on this web site and in this blog.

An orthodontist completes several years of extensive training beyond dental school to become an expert at correcting jaw problems and straightening teeth. An orthodontist only practices orthodontics and treats hundreds of cases a year. An orthodontist doesn’t clean teeth, fill cavities, extract teeth or perform any of the routine procedures offered by your general dentist. It is not our area of expertise. So be sure to see your dentist every six months for cleaning and checkups while wearing braces.Read more on Why Choose An Orthodontist in Seattle WA?…

Riolo Orthodontics now has 3D focused field imaging

 
 3D focused field imaging may be integral to the future of orthodontics. Custom brackets like the Incognito bracket system may soon be contructed from 3D imaging data like the data produced from the Kodak 9000c 3D.
 

The Kodack 9000c 3D performs focused field 3D imaging

Riolo Orthodontics uses the KODAK 9000 3D System to deliver an unprecedented level of detail, providing anatomically correct images with 1:1 measurements that allow us to confidently manage our patients orthodontic treatment.  With this 3D system’s focused field of view, you not only receive all the angles and slices you need, you get the highest resolution images you can imagine using the lowest possible x-ray exposure.  The KODAK 9000 3D System’s focused field of view limits radiation to a specific region of interest, so our patients are exposed to the lowest possible radiation dose— in many cases less exposure than a standard panoramic view.  Our KODAK 9000 3D has Cephalometric imaging abilities including revolutionary one-shot technology, cephalometric image acquisition takes less than a second—thereby reducing exposure time and the risk of retakes due to patient movement.

With the KODAK 9000C 3D System, we can perform a wider range of diagnoses and treatments right in our office, rather than referring patients to imaging centers. Reduce multiple visits, prevent rescheduling issues, and enhance patient care with three versatile imaging abilities right at your fingertips: panoramic, cephalometric, and focused field 3D imaging.

Whether we use the 2D or 3D program, positioning patients is easier than ever allowing us to capture images while patients are sitting or standing.

Our KODAK 9000C 3D System enables us to process the following imaging views:

• Standard Panoramic

• Segmented Panoramic

• Child Panoramic

• Lateral TMJ (2 and 4 views)

• Maxillary Sinus

• Lateral Cephalometric

• Oblique Cephalometric

• Frontal (AP/PA) Cephalometric

• Submento-Vertex Cephalometric

• Carpus Cephalometric 

We are excited to now have the ability to now take virtually any radiograph conceivable during orthodontic treatment without having refer our patients to an outside imaging center, saving both time and money for our patients.   If you have questions about the Kodak 9000c 3D or orthodontic treatment do not hesitate to contact our office at 206.467.4441 or through our web site at www.SeattleOrthodontist.com
