Technology

Digital x-rays

Digital x-rays are a wonderful breakthrough in dental technology. The computer-generated images allow up to 90%, less radiation than conventional x-rays and also detect cavities faster than ever before. A small electronic sensor takes a picture and immediately transmits the image onto a video monitor that you and your dentist can view together.

3 Dimensional Imaging with CBCT – Cone Beam Computed Tomography 

The use of 3D imaging in dental offices is the biggest advancement in diagnostics and surgical planning since traditional 2D radiographs. We invested in this technology in 2022 to continue to bring the highest level of available care to our patients. This helps us diagnose infections, pathology, and plan root canal therapies and dental implants. 

Intra-oral cameras

Most people are only able to see the surface of their teeth, but with a convenient intra-oral camera, you and your dentist can see every detail of your oral health. You simply sit back in the chair while the dentist uses a pen-like, camera-tipped wand to take video of the inside of your mouth . Much like the laser cavity detection, the camera may uncover the early stages of potentially serious dental problems.

Intraoral Scanning and Impressioning 

Intraoral scanning replaces traditional impressioning in many instances. It is fast, accurate, and more comfortable than the traditional impressions that you may have experienced. Within minutes you can see a digital rendering of your teeth on the screen of our intraoral scanner. 

Same Day Crowns

The traditional crown protocol involves a preparation appointment, a temporary crown, and a second appointment 1-2 weeks later to receive the permanent crown. We have invested in intraoral scanning and in house lab equipment to deliver most dental crowns in a single visit for the convenience of our patients.
