A panorex is a very impressive piece of imaging machinery in that it is capable of identifying many issues and structures that a normal x-ray is not. Initially you will sit in a chair with your chin on a small ledge. Once positioned in the machine, it will rotate around your entire head taking a full 360 degree view of the teeth, head, sinuses and bones.

The ability to view the full structure of your head as a whole is very informative to the dentist. It will allow us to see any potential problems and make sure that everything is functioning as it should be. The panorex is capable of viewing specific types of structural problems, infections or asymmetry among many others.

Rotary Endodontics is a way of performing the root canal utilizing a specific electrical handpiece. This tool often makes the process faster and allows the dentist to perform the process with greater ease.

Oral cancer screenings are a very important part of the dental visit for the patient. With the advances in modern technology, we are now able to pinpoint the start of a potential problem much earlier in its evolution. The ability to do so is extremely important in being able to treat any issues prior to them becoming a major irreversible problem.

Certain lifestyle choices can have a great impact on the health of tissues and your overall health in the mouth. If you are a smoker or heavy drinker, make sure to get regular screenings when you visit the dentist.

Digital x-rays are quickly becoming adopted by a large percentage of the dental industry. A digital x-ray allows the dentist to take an image of the tooth or teeth and put it into an imaging program. Within this imaging program, there are a number of tools that will allow the dentist to take a very close look at the teeth and surrounding structures with amazing accuracy. As a benefit to the patient, the digital x-ray also provides nearly 80% less radiation than a standard x-ray. This is due to the fact that the digital version of the x-ray is much more sensitive to this radiation and has been specifically designed with the patient in mind.

The intraoral camera is an amazing diagnostic tool for viewing different angles in the mouth that we would not have been able to just a few years ago. The camera gives us the ability to view the entire mouth on a monitor so that we can get a closer look at any potential issues or problems that may arise. In addition, the patient will have the ability to see for themselves first hand the same images we are seeing. These digital images are also excellent for gaining procedure acceptance from insurance companies.

I was NOT looking forward to the terrible process of finding a new dentist, so I'm relieved to have found such a great one on my first go! Dr. Farina was really knowledgeable and patiently explained everything. His staff are also super nice, and were very concerned with my comfort. I really appreciate that they were transparent with how much and for what I should expect to pay. They also take a lot of care to minimize Covid-19 risks with things like air purifiers, hand sanitizer at crucial points (before coming into the office, after signing the receipt, etc), and keeping sanitized ink pens separated from used ones. Clean, painless, and an overall great experience!

I made the appointment in advance and asked for the price. I was given a price for first consultation.And I mentioned to the Dr when I first saw him. On my way out the price changed and his front desk Marcia, said I was confused. I paid and left very disappointed. Spoke with a friend and the same thing happened to her. Ask for a written price, if you really wanted to go there. I gave 2 stars. The place was clean and the staff was polite, besides Marcia.
