Your comfort and time are things that we know are extremely meaningful when coming in for a dental visit. This is why we have gone to great lengths to provide you with the benefits of state-of-the-art technology. This allows you to receive dental services and treatment in as little time as possible. Below are a few pieces of equipment we use to provide these benefits:

The i-CAT x-ray machine (a.k.a. Cone Beam 3D Imaging System) allows us to take a digital 3D model of your entire skull. This system means dental implants are precisly placed where they have the best chance of success. We can also use this system to detect looming issues with wisdom teeth before their removal.

We use a laser for dental procedures involving the soft tissues in your mouth such as gums, cheeks and lips. Laser dentistry (a.k.a. LANAP Therapy) means these dental procedures are pain-free and healing times are significantly shorter when compared to the same procedure being done with a scalpel.

Dr. Hayatt is dedicated to the area of cosmetic dentistry, providing preventative maintenance and restorative dental health for our patients. Dr. Hayatt is a graduate of Nova Southeastern University where he received his D.M.D. and has completed his undergraduate studies at UCSD. He is an active member of the CDA, ADA and SDCDS and has received many awards for implants, esthetics, restorative and prosthodontics. Dr. Hayatt is consistently educating himself and his staff with many continuing education courses to keep up to date with the latest advancements in dentistry as well as orthodontics. Take advantage of our modern dental facility and Dr. Hayatt's advanced knowledge of treatments available for you and your family.

Our cosmetic dentistry options can dramatically improve the appearance of your teeth. Straightening, whitening and repairing cracked or damaged teeth can enhance your smile while improving how you feel about your appearance. We are a full service provider of cosmetic dentistry options including teeth whitening, inlays & onlays, veneers, Invisalign as well as traditional braces. Give your child the gift of a beautiful healthy smile with our two phase orthodontic treatment options.

The i-CAT 3-D dental scan system is well in advance of any x-ray system. The i-CAT provides 3-D images of the teeth, jaw, sinuses and skull structure in 1/20th of a second with significantly less radiation than a medical CT scan.

The 3-D scans from the i-CAT provide anatomically accurate data and surgical predictability for:- Implant placement- Impactions- TMJ analysis- Airway assessments- Panoramics- Cephalometrics- Orthodontics- Orthognathic surgery

We use a highly-sensitive precision wand to digitally scan the section of your mouth where a dental restoration will be placed. As the wand scans the area, it builds a virtual model of your mouth on a screen right in front of your eyes. You and Dr. Hayatt can fine-tune the area until the virtual model represents your mouth exactly.

Once the digital model of the dental restoration area have been finished, Dr. Hayatt will digitally design a restoration right there on the screen. It will be designed to be fully functional and fit exactly in the area where it needs to be place.

From there, this digital restoration will be sent to a milling machine where a color-matched block of porcelain will be precisely milled into the final restoration. This restoration is NOT a temporary, but rather the same restoration we expect to receive from a dental lab.

The final restoration is test-fitted to the area and any final adjustments are made before securely bonding the restoration to the tooth. You will walk out of our office wearing the final restoration in a single dental visit.

CrownsCEREC crowns are the preferred dental restoration for damaged teeth or after a root canal or dental implant placement. CEREC crowns are color matched to blend in perfectly with surrounding teeth.

Inlays & OnlaysFor when a filling might ruin tooth structure integrity but a crown is unnecessary a CEREC inlay or onlay is the perfect dental restoration to restore a tooths functionality yet keep a natural appearance.

White FillingsHigh-strength fillings and color matched to the tooth the dental restoration is being placed in. CEREC retain a natural biting surface that is otherwise lost in some typical filling methods.

VeneersCEREC veneers are created to perfectly fit over a prepared tooth that was originally damaged or discolored. The final product is a fully functional, color-matched dental restoration ready for use.

CEREC restorations are the quickest way today to receive a final dental restoration. Because of their 'single-visit' nature, they are typically associated as a high-cost dental service. This is not always true and in many cases, a CEREC restoration costs about the same as a traditional restoration.

In any case, a same-day dental restoration is easily affordable at Life Smiles Dental Care. We are a proud CareCredit provider which means your dental restoration can be financed in most cases with no interest rate for a set financing term.
