Madison Family Dental values the importance of advanced dental technology because it helps us more adequately meet the needs of our patients. When youre in our office, youll have the opportunity to experience our higher standard of dentistry!

The office of Madison Family Dental is currently undergoing a major remodeling in August. We are adding a fourth examination room, with state-of-the-art equipment to better meet the needs of our patients. We have recently added the XG3D scanner by Sirona. This will help us better diagnose pathology, and determine the exact location of nerves, sinuses, and other anatomical landpoints within microns on a 3D view.

We use dental lasers during a variety of procedures. We feel that this procedure allows us to perform different techniques more swiftly and accurately, as well as facilitate a faster recovery period than with treatments performed with traditional measures.

We have an Automated External Defibrillator in our office at all time, which is equipment that can help us recognize cardiac arrhythmias and ventricular tachycardia in our patients, both of which can be life-threatening. Madison Family Dental can swiftly care for you and even protect your life with this technology!

Each of our patients has access to televisions in our reception area and examination rooms. We also have a coffee bar for those in our care to enjoy. Just speak with a member of our team to receive any of these patient amenities.

Do you worry about dental examinations? If you have any form of dental-induced anxiety, our team may be able to help. We have two forms of sedation dentistry available for patients who need it which can help you relax and ease your troubled mind. A fear of the dentist is a common one around the world, which is why we have chosen to offer this form of patient comfort to those in our care. If you become nervous and uncomfortable once you step foot into our reception area, we can offer nitrous oxide. Also known as laughing gas, this technique involves inhaling the gas through a nose mask, which leaves your mouth free to experience our dental care. When breathed in, nitrous oxide creates an almost euphoric feeling and dissipates soon after the gas is shut off, which means that youll be able to drive yourself home.
