Advanced Technology
Our dental offices have invested in this advanced equipment for your comfort, safety and convenience . . . . and ultimately, to provide you with the best possible dental care.
Video Imaging / Intra–Oral Video Cameras
“Seeing is believing!”
Before we begin ANY treatment in our office, the tooth or teeth in question are displayed immediately by VIDEO on a large screen “before your eyes” while sitting in the dental chair! All the images are archived for future use and review. This wonderful tool has enhanced our patient’s experiences and treatment. You can follow everything we are doing during your dental treatment and see images “enlarged.” This allows patients to confidently select the best treatment options. WOW!
Digital X-rays – The latest in patient safety, comfort and convenience
Our digital x-ray (radiograph) system takes an x-ray of your teeth and displays it almost instantly on our computer screen. You don’t wait for “films” to develop. Rather, the images of your teeth are immediately available. And digital xrays require LESS radiation.
LASER CARIES DETECTION – DIAGNODENT
Our offices use the latest, state-of- the- art LASER CARIES (“decay”) DETECTION available “on the planet”!
This DIAGNODENT LASER instrument can detect decay that has already invaded enamel and might not be obvious in x-rays or by dentist examinations. It’s called DIAGNODENT.
The DIAGNODENT LASER helps detect decay at the earliest possible stage so the most appropriate treatment plans can be designed for patients. It is now possible with DIAGNODENT to quantify the various stages of decay more accurately and without exposing patients to radiation.
What is the DIAGNODENT actually measuring?
The DIAGNODENT measures laser fluorescence within tooth structure. Carious tooth structure will exhibit fluorescence, proportionate to the degree of caries, resulting in elevated scale reading on the display of the DIAGNODENT.
Safe! NO X-ray exposure!
Painless
Early decay detection – over 90% accurate
Promotes minimally-invasive treatment
Engages patient in examination process
Provides objective data. Gain confidence in treatment decisions!
