By investing in the state of art oral health technologies we can improve treatment plans and provide you with the best oral care possible.
Some of the Latest Dental Technologies…
The more advanced the technology the more capable it is to increase your comfort and health while at the dental office and in your normal life too. Your happiness and health is our ultimate goal and we’ll do whatever it takes to achieve that. Let’s take a deeper look at some of the devices and technologies that could benefit your life.
Digital X-rays
Digital X-rays offer more precision than traditional x-rays because we can view the images on the computer screen. This means better treatment and less radiation exposure than before.
Intraoral Cameras
These high tech camera devices are used by dentists to get a better view of the inside of your mouth. Using a device that looks like a large pen or wand, they can take detailed images of your teeth. These high-resolution images can help both you and your dentist better understand what’s going on with your oral health and will help to find solutions to your dental problems. This means faster diagnosis and less time in the chair.
Microscopic Dentistry
Microscopes provide more visual accuracy than the naked eye. Magnification improves accuracy of tooth preparations and prevents damage to adjacent teeth and gum tissue during dental and surgical procedures. Our microscope has a built-in high-intensity lights, which allow high visibility for areas that are otherwise hard to see. Small decay and cracks are just visible without significant magnification.
A microscope can be an invaluable resource for the endodontist. The root canal procedure takes place in a very small area of the tooth with intricate roots and canals. Missed canals often mean unresolved infections, which may mean a repeat of the procedure.
