At Elite Dental Group, we offer Dental Monitoring as part of your orthodontic treatment, whether you are wearing traditional braces or clear aligners in Taunton, MA. Dental Monitoring uses an advanced ScanBox device that allows our team to track your progress between in office visits. Using the ScanBox and your smartphone, you will complete quick weekly scans of your teeth from the comfort of your home.

With consistent remote monitoring, we are able to closely evaluate your treatment progress and provide guidance if any adjustments are needed. This proactive approach helps us address concerns early and keep your treatment moving efficiently, meaning fewer in office visits for routine checks while still receiving the same high level of care and attention.

"Painless!!! I have anxiety from past experiences and they were so compassionate and kind. They offer options for sedation or nitrous, which definitely helps. The dentist was very gentle and caring. I didn’t feel a thing getting two fillings. This place is great and I highly recommend! Especially if fear is keeping you from going to the dentist. Give them a call, setup an appointment and see for yourself.

"Finding a great doctor is like shoe shopping, you have to keep looking until you find the best fit!!! And this office is exactly that!! From the ladies at the front desk, the hygienists, the assistants, all the way up to the providers themselves, its been a great experience. They even have early AM options for those of us who rather get in and get out ASAP. Def the best overall service I've had.
