To this end, the Center offers a service called
"Virtual Smile"©. This program uses a photograph supplied by the
dentist (negatives or slide preferred because of greater resolution). The original
image is then computer modified, according to the dentist's prescription. Returned
to the dentist is an 8½" X 11" glossy high resolution color photograph which
contains a 3" X 5" full face picture of the patient as they now exist with a
5" X 7" full face computer reconfigured picture.
These images are produced at reasonable cost and fast
turn around times. It is not necessary for your patient to go outside of your
office for this service. Your "hands on" time for this procedure is only
that necessary to snap the photograph.
Do not confuse this service with re-imaging done
utilizing low definition video equipment. All re-imaging is professionally done
using a high resolution state-of-the-art digital editing equipment. The end product
is a glossy, high resolution dye sublimation print indistinguishable from a photograph.
This service is available only by referral by a
healthcare professional.
