Technology, With Purpose

Tools in Service of Care

At Smiles by Mia, advanced technology is never about gadgets for their own sake. Each system Dr. Mia invests in earns its place by making your visit gentler, your diagnosis clearer, or your results more natural and lasting.

Explore the technology below — and how each one shapes the comfortable, precise, beautifully finished care you’ll experience here.

iTero digital intraoral scanner at Smiles by Mia

Digital Imaging | Comfort | Clarity

iTero 3D Scanner

The iTero 3D intraoral scanner replaces messy impression trays with a small, comfortable wand that captures a precise digital model of your teeth and bite in minutes. Dr. Mia can show you exactly what she sees on screen — so you understand your oral health and your options with complete clarity.

Because the scan is digital, it integrates seamlessly with Invisalign planning, crown and veneer design, and our in-practice 3D printing — fewer appointments, better-fitting restorations, and a smoother experience from start to finish.

  • Comfortable digital scanning — no goopy impression trays
  • See your teeth and bite on screen in real time
  • Seamless integration with Invisalign and restorative design
  • Highly accurate models for better-fitting results

How it works

A handheld wand takes thousands of images per second and stitches them into a detailed 3D model of your teeth and gums — all in a few comfortable minutes.

Is it comfortable

Yes. There's no tray and nothing to bite down on for long — most patients find scanning far easier than traditional impressions.

What it's used for

Invisalign treatment planning, crown and veneer design, monitoring changes over time, and showing you your own smile up close.

Why it matters

A precise digital starting point means restorations and aligners fit better the first time, which often means fewer visits.

Fotona LightWalker dental laser at Smiles by Mia

Laser Dentistry | Precision | Gentle Care

Fotona Laser

The Fotona LightWalker is a dual-wavelength laser system that lets Dr. Mia treat both hard and soft tissue with remarkable precision and comfort. From laser root canals and gum therapy to cavity disinfection and gum contouring, many procedures become gentler — often with less bleeding, swelling, and need for anesthesia.

The same platform powers gentle facial and intraoral rejuvenation, including NightLase for snoring, SmoothLase for skin tightening from inside the mouth, and LipLase for lip enhancement — bridging dentistry and esthetics in one technology.

  • Dual-wavelength laser for teeth and soft tissue
  • Gentler treatment — often less bleeding and swelling
  • Powers laser root canals, gum therapy, and contouring
  • Also enables NightLase, SmoothLase, and LipLase

How it works

Precisely tuned laser light targets specific tissue while leaving surrounding areas undisturbed — allowing very controlled, minimally invasive treatment.

Is it comfortable

Many laser procedures require little or no anesthesia and tend to heal comfortably, with less post-treatment soreness than traditional methods.

What it treats

Root canals, gum disease, cavity disinfection, gum contouring, plus esthetic uses like NightLase, SmoothLase, and LipLase.

Why it matters

One advanced laser platform supports a remarkable range of gentle, precise treatments across both dentistry and facial esthetics.
EMFACE facial muscle toning treatment at Smiles by Mia

Lift | Tone | Refresh

EmFace

EmFace is a noninvasive facial treatment that combines synchronized radiofrequency and HIFES muscle stimulation to improve facial tone, support, and skin quality — a refreshed look without needles, fillers, or surgery. By treating both the skin and the underlying facial muscles, results are designed to look natural and gradual rather than overdone.

Each session is quick and comfortable, with little to no downtime, making EmFace an easy addition to a busy schedule.

  • Noninvasive lifting and softening of facial aging changes
  • Synchronized radiofrequency + HIFES muscle stimulation
  • No needles and little to no downtime
  • Natural-looking, gradual facial rejuvenation

How it works

Radiofrequency warms the skin to support collagen and elastin renewal, while HIFES stimulates facial muscles to improve tone in the cheeks, brow, and jawline.

How many sessions

Most patients benefit from about 4 sessions spaced a week apart; results build gradually and continue developing after the series.

Downtime

Typically none — most patients return to normal activities immediately after treatment.

What you feel

Gentle warmth from the radio frequency and light facial muscle contractions — generally described as comfortable.

EXION radiofrequency device at Smiles by Mia

Renew | Firm | Refine

Exion

Exion is a skin-rejuvenation platform that improves firmness, texture, and overall tone — addressing fine lines, laxity, enlarged pores, and uneven skin texture. It combines radiofrequency with targeted ultrasound and, in its microneedling mode, fractional RF energy to stimulate collagen at multiple depths.

Treatments are tailored to your skin and goals, from gentle non-invasive facial sessions to deeper fractional RF microneedling, with results that build over a recommended series.

  • Improves firmness, texture, and overall skin tone
  • Radiofrequency with targeted ultrasound technology
  • Fractional RF microneedling option for deeper renewal
  • Customizable from gentle to more intensive treatment

How it works

RF energy and targeted ultrasound stimulate collagen and elastin; in microneedling mode, fractional RF reaches deeper layers to renew skin from within.

Downtime

Non-invasive Exion Face typically has minimal downtime; RF microneedling may involve brief redness afterward.

Results

Collagen-based results build gradually over a recommended series of sessions.

Pairs well with

EmFace for muscle lift and tone — a powerful duo for facial rejuvenation.

In-Practice | Precise | Faster

SprintRay 3D Printing

SprintRay in-practice 3D printing lets Smiles by Mia craft precise restorations, surgical guides, night guards, and appliances on-site — turning digital scans into finished pieces without long lab waits. Pairing iTero scanning with on-site printing means many treatments are designed and produced under one roof.

The result is fewer visits, faster turnaround, and restorations and appliances tailored exactly to your anatomy and Dr. Mia’s design.

  • On-site 3D printing of restorations and appliances
  • Surgical guides and night guards crafted in-practice
  • Works hand-in-hand with iTero digital scanning
  • Fewer visits and faster, more comfortable turnaround

How it works

Digital designs from your scan are sent to a high-resolution dental 3D printer that produces precise physical pieces from biocompatible materials.

What it makes

Surgical guides, temporary and certain final restorations, night guards, and custom appliances — designed to fit your anatomy.

Why it matters

Producing on-site reduces lab delays, often meaning fewer appointments and faster delivery of your treatment.

Is it accurate

Yes — printing from a precise digital model produces consistent, well-fitting results designed around your unique anatomy.

Diagnosis | Planning | Confidence

3D X-Ray & Cone Beam

3D cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) captures detailed three-dimensional views of your teeth, bone, nerves, and airway that a standard 2D X-ray simply can’t show. This deeper view supports more accurate diagnosis and confident, personalized planning — especially for implants, root canals, and airway and sleep evaluation.

Modern cone-beam imaging is fast and low-dose, giving Dr. Mia the information she needs to plan treatment precisely and explain it to you clearly.

  • Detailed 3D views of teeth, bone, nerves, and airway
  • More accurate diagnosis than 2D X-rays alone
  • Essential for implant, root canal, and airway planning
  • Fast, low-dose imaging with clear visualization

How it works

A scanner rotates around your head to capture a full 3D volume, which Dr. Mia can view from any angle to plan treatment precisely.

Why 3D

Three-dimensional imaging reveals bone volume, nerve position, and airway anatomy that flat X-rays can miss — critical for safe, predictable treatment.

What it's used for

Dental implant planning, complex root canals, evaluating the airway for sleep concerns, and assessing impacted teeth.

Is it safe

Cone-beam imaging is fast and uses a low, targeted dose to capture only the detail needed for your care.
