What makes a good family dental office is more than just the quality of the treatment options available (although that quality is essential). Its also the level of service that the staff provides, the comfort you feel throughout your entire visit, and the confidence you have in your smiles health and appearance afterward.
At our office, we want you to feel comfortable every time you visit, and that includes knowing that your diagnosis and treatment services will be as convenient as possible. Our investment in your care includes several advanced dental technologies designed to streamline those services, including:
Digital X-rays: Digital radiography allows us to create nearly instant X-ray images that can be projected onto a digital chairside monitor. The process of capturing digital X-rays produces up to 90% less radiation than traditional radiography, and because the images are digital, they dont require time-consuming processing.
CT scans: Computed tomography, or CT scanning, utilizes multiple digital X-rays to capture a comprehensive, 3D image of your teeth, jawbone, and oral structures. In many diagnostic and treatment planning procedures, including same-day restorations, CT scanning provides an optimal level of precision and convenience.
CEREC restoration: CEREC stands for chairside economic restoration of esthetic ceramics, and is our digital CAD/CAM technology that captures highly precise digital images and measurements of your teeth. These are sent to an onsite milling machine that crafts your porcelain restoration in just a single day.
Soft-tissue laser: For procedures such as cosmetic gum contouring, which require the slight modification of your soft gingival tissues, we may recommend using an advanced soft-tissue laser instead of a traditional scalpel. Compared to traditional surgery, laser gum contouring offers significantly higher comfort, precision, and esthetic results.
