Topical fluoride is found in fluoride toothpastes and mouthwashes, working to protect your teeth from the outside.

DIGITAL IMPRESSIONS
A NEW BEGINNING
“Forget the messy and unpleasant methods of conventional impressions and
avail the benefits of modernity at Kosmos”
We want to redefine the dental experience for our patients and completely remove the anxiety of dental treatment by adopting modern technology.
Generally in the Dental clinic, we take impressions of the teeth to record and create a prototype of the teeth and jaw model in the stone. This is generally taken for fabricating crowns and bridges.
This procedure is very cumbersome and technique sensitive. A lot of mess is created to make these impressions. But now we can avoid this by using intra oral scanner (IOS).
Intra oral scanner is a Pen like device which has a camera on the nib. This scanner scans the teeth with utmost precision. This Data is collected with special software wherein within seconds everything is recorded and a Virtual stone model is created. This scan is mailed to CAD-CAM labs, where they design the crowns and mill them in a day.
