DIGITAL BITE TESTING WITH T-SCAN™
Understanding T-Scan™: Ensuring a Healthy Bite for Optimal Oral Health
At the Isle of Wight Dental Clinic, we prioritise your oral health by utilising advanced technology to assess and maintain a balanced bite. One such innovation is the T-Scan™ system, a digital tool that helps us analyse how teeth come together when you bite.

What Is T-Scan™?
T-Scan™ is a digital device that measures the timing and force of your bite. By having you bite down on a thin, sensor-equipped plate, we can visualise how your teeth align and identify any areas where the bite may be uneven or excessive.
Why Is a Balanced Bite Important?
An unbalanced bite can lead to various dental issues, including:
- Tooth Damage: Excessive pressure on specific teeth can cause them to crack or break.
- Restoration Failures: Dental work like fillings, crowns, or implants may fail prematurely due to uneven bite forces.
- Jaw Pain and Headaches: An improper bite can contribute to temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders, leading to discomfort and headaches.
Benefits of T-Scan™ Analysis
By incorporating T-Scan into your dental care, we can:
- Prevent Tooth Damage: Identify and adjust areas of excessive force to protect your teeth from cracking or breaking.
- Enhance Restoration Longevity: Ensure dental restorations are not subjected to undue stress, prolonging their lifespan.
- Alleviate Discomfort: Address bite-related issues that may cause jaw pain or headaches, improving overall comfort.
