673d Dental Squadron utltize 3-D Dental scanners

Senior Airman Lauren Francis (right), 673d Dental Squadron dental technician, checks the articulating paper to assure the temporary crown won’t grind the other teeth of Airman 1st Class Ian McKinney, 673d Security Forces Squadron alarm monitor specialist, at the Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson Hospital, Alaska, Aug. 14, 2017. A cavity or incomplete tooth needs a crown to prevent further damage. The dentist removes any decay and the outer layer of the tooth so the crown fits like a cap.
