Small imbalances in how your teeth come together can drive big problems — pain, tension, worn teeth. A T-Scan digital bite evaluation shows precisely where and how your bite lands, so care can be exact.

Why bite detail matters
Traditional bite checks can miss the timing and force of how teeth meet. T-Scan captures that digitally, revealing subtle imbalances that can contribute to jaw strain and uneven wear.
With that precision, we can fine-tune your bite and plan TMJ care based on how your mouth truly functions.
How a T-Scan works
You bite down on a thin, flexible sensor, and software records not just where your teeth touch but the sequence and force of each contact — in real time, as you close. Traditional marking paper shows where teeth meet, but it can’t reveal which contacts land first or carry too much force. T-Scan captures that timing and pressure map, turning your bite into data.
It’s quick and completely comfortable — no drilling, no discomfort — yet it surfaces the kind of subtle imbalance that can quietly overload a tooth or strain the jaw.
From data to lasting relief
A tooth that contacts a fraction of a second too early, or bears more force than its neighbors, can drive clenching, uneven wear, and jaw strain over time. Seeing exactly where that happens lets us make precise, conservative adjustments and plan [TMJ care](/tmj-treatment/) — and any restorative work — around a balanced bite. Combined with [EMG muscle measurement](/electromyography/), it grounds treatment in how your mouth truly functions.
Common questions
- It digitally maps where your teeth make contact, and the timing and force of those contacts — detail that guides precise TMJ and restorative care. It helps reveal bite misalignment, TMJ-related jaw imbalances, clenching or grinding patterns, premature or uneven contacts, and excessive force on specific teeth.
- Yes. It’s a quick, non-invasive digital measurement of your bite that helps us plan your care accurately.
