Technology
The professionals on our dental care team have dedicated their careers to providing the best care possible to our patients. We are continuously educating ourselves on the latest dental care techniques, technologies & materials
to provide you with the most advanced dental care available. All treatment decisions at our practice come from conversations between you & your dentist, & we are happy to offer dental care beyond the treatments listed on our website to fit your individual needs. If you have questions about any of our dental care services, please do not hesitate to ask.
DIGITAL X-RAYS
Digital X-rays are computer-generated images that require up to 90% less radiation than conventional film-type X-rays. Instead of using the traditional silver-oxide X-ray film, which must be developed & then fixed in caustic and environmentally damaging solutions, the new system takes pictures via a small electronic sensor. A picture of the tooth is instantaneously transmitted onto the monitor in the treatment room so we can see your teeth & surrounding structures immediately.
HAND-HELD X-RAY SYSTEM
Utilizing the latest X-ray technology with the KaVo NOMAD Pro 2 hand-held X-ray system, we can complete your X-rays more quickly and efficiently without ever leaving the room. It saves you the discomfort of keeping the sensors in your mouth for longer periods of time and is truly a safer system used for taking X-rays.
INTRAORAL CAMERA TECHNOLOGY
The Intraoral camera is used for diagnosis, education, and collaboration. The images from our cameras are used to show you any details of your tooth or soft tissue. It is easy to use, reliable, portable, simple to clean, comfortable and very safe for all patients.
ITERO SCANNER
The iTero Scanner uses imaging technology to enhance the patient's experience and education. It is engineered to be portable, powerful, and intuitive while eliminating the need for gooey & sticky impressions. It works easy with Invisalign to scan and immediately send to obtain simulations of the patient's teeth and obtain aligners easier and faster.
AUTOCLAVE/STERILIZATION UNIT
Sterilizing all instruments effectively and properly is vital here in our office. We use a high end autoclave/sterilization unit called the Midmark M11 UltraClave™ Automatic Sterilizer to ensure employee and patient safety. It is designed to be reliable, easy to use, and can optimize sterilization output.
