The technologies of Santa Rosa's only digital orthodontics provider

iTero® Digital Scans

Our two iTero 3D digital imaging scanners, named Pepper and Lumina, capture the details of your teeth and gums without the unpleasantness of biting into a putty-filled mold.

Dr. Lynskey uses the 3D digital models to assess your tooth, jaw, and airway alignment and then customize your orthodontic treatment planning. The digital scans then go to our in-house 3D printing lab to create your braces, aligners, or retainers.

This digital orthodontics technology also lets you preview a simulation of your new smile on a monitor.

In-house 3D custom printing

In-house 3D custom printing

We 3D print our patients’ appliances onsite to give us complete control over the treatment process.

Our two 3D printers, affectionately named Paprika and Cayenne, create highly accurate appliances based on the digital scans we take from your teeth and jaws. Your custom appliances are then 3D printed on site. This reduces your costs and wait times, with rapid turnarounds and efficient appliance modifications whenever needed.

Convenience with DentalMonitoring remote checkups

Your or your child’s orthodontic care should fit your busy schedule, and we’re committed to making your experience as convenient as possible.

The DentalMonitoring platform allows us to check the progress of your orthodontic treatment without needing you to come in. You submit digital scans of your teeth from home or on the go using your smartphone and a simple attachment. This advanced solution provides convenient remote dental care and timely feedback without the need for frequent in-office visits.

It’s digital orthodontic care that works for you by greatly reducing interruptions to your schedule.

Invisalign® for Adults, teens, and kids

Invisalign® for Adults, teens, and kids

Invisalign® is perfect for people who prefer a discreet orthodontic treatment. It uses a series of transparent aligners that are 3D printed from digital impressions of your teeth. They fit precisely for comfort and are nearly invisible when worn. They can also be removed at any time for cleaning or meals.

We do all the digital scans in-house, using non-toxic medical-grade thermoplastic. Dr. Lynskey has 20+ years of digital orthodontics experience, both as an Invisalign practitioner and UCSF clinical educator. Over 1,000 patients are smiling thanks to her Invisalign expertise.

LightForce Braces

LightForce Braces are a revolutionary advancement in orthodontics—custom 3D-printed brackets designed just for you.

Unlike traditional metal or ceramic braces, LightForce brackets are created from digital impressions of your dental structures, so they are an exact match for the shape and alignment of your teeth. This allows for more precise movement, a more comfortable fit, and often shorter treatment times.

The results? Fewer appointments, better efficiency, and a stunningly confident smile made just for you.

Synapse Dental Pain Eraser

Synapse Dental Pain Eraser

At Lynskey Orthodontics, patient comfort is our priority. Synapse is a revolutionary, FDA-cleared electronic anesthesia device that provides fast, effective relief from orthodontic discomfort.

Using advanced Pulsewave™ technology, it sends gentle electric pulses to calm the oral nerves, delivering pain relief quickly for up to 48 hours.

We use this innovative tool as a safe, non-invasive way to eliminate dental pain within seconds, enhancing your or your child’s comfort before and after orthodontic treatments.

My daughter and I got braces with Dr. Lynskey. Mine are already done and I love my new smile, and my 13 y/o loves the support and kindness from the staff. I am so happy we found this great group of professionals.

Frequently asked questions

What is "digital orthodontics"?

Digital orthodontics uses advanced tech like 3D digital scans and 3D printing to create more precise, efficient, and comfortable tooth alignment procedures. The technology enables treatments like clear aligners and custom braces that fit your unique smile. This is combined with remote monitoring to accurately assess your progress without the need for in-person visits.
These benefits of modern digital orthodontics can be had for the same cost as old-school metal braces, but with much less disruption to your life.
At Lynskey Orthodontics, we value your time and prioritise your convenience through the use of digital technology, both in your treatment planning and in monitoring your progress. To reduce your number in-person checkups, we use remote digital imaging to monitor and evaluate when it’s the right time for you to come in. These virtual check-ups use a simple intraoral scanner attached to your smartphone. They take two minutes and can be performed from home or anywhere on the go. The results are more accurate treatment timing, fewer visits, shorter overall treatment time, and less disruption to your life.
Age seven is when adult teeth begin to emerge. We can detect early signs of crowding, bite problems, extra or missing permanent teeth, airway concerns, and growth issues. Early care, like palatal expanders, can prevent more complex treatment later and help you plan for any future orthodontic needs for your child.
No—healthy adults of any age can benefit from orthodontics. Many adults seek treatment for bite issues, shifting teeth, or cosmetic improvements, and many Santa Rosa and Sonoma County dentists refer patients to us for tooth movement prior to placement of implants or tooth replacement after extractions.
No referral is needed. Individuals or families may schedule a complimentary consultation directly with our Santa Rosa office.
