Our office uses state-of-the-art technology to enhance
your comfort
and to help you achieve the smile you’ve always wanted!
Computer Digital Radiography (CDR)
 |
Digital x-rays
can now be taken using sensors that transmit the image
directly into a computer monitor. This larger image
helps the patient understand the doctor's explanations
more easily and enables the doctor to "zoom in"
on a specific area of the tooth. An important advantage
to this new technology is that it reduces the amount
of radiation by 90%. Digital x-rays are also faster.
The digital image only takes a minute or two to appear
in the monitor. In addition, this new technology is
friendly to the environment since no chemicals are needed
for developing the image. |
CompuMed® ("The Wand")
The CompuMed® instrument allows injections that do not numb the lips, face and muscles of expression. Whether injections make you nervous or not, The CompuMed® instrument helps us provide a more effective anesthetic delivery and the onset of anesthesia is often faster. You're more comfortable throughout the procedure, and we may be able to use new techniques so you won't experience the lingering numbness of your tongue, lips and face. |

Dental Imaging Software
Dental imaging software allows us
to simulate cosmetic and other procedures so you
can see the effect on your smile before we start!
We take digital pictures of your teeth and then
use a sophisticated computer simulation program
to create the projected "after" images.

Soft Tissue Laser
Modern lasers are used to cosmetically contour
gums, lengthen crowns
to provide ample structure for restoration, and treat
pockets of infection during gum
treatment.
Lasers are self-sterilizing, provide the maximum
amount of control, and are virtually painless during
the procedure and post-operatively.

Intraoral Camera
|
|
Our intraoral camera uses a tiny fiber-optic
wand to easily take vivid photographs of the inside
of your mouth. This allows you to see what we see, and
gain a better understanding of your health.
|
Veneers
|
New technology in veneer fabrication
allows us to perform dazzling transformations with
minimal surface preparation.

Multimedia Education
|
|
Our treatment rooms are equipped with state-of-the-art patient-education video systems. If you would like more information about a particular procedure, we are happy to play that video segment for you.
|
White fillings
|
Although white fillings have been
around for a long time, the new materials can now
be used in a wider range of applications allowing
you to keep your smile as white as it can be!
