Technology

        


Our office has the technology that allows our patients the best diagnosis and treatment available in today's world. This technology is available in all of the operatories and the staff is extensively trained on its use. Computer charting of the health and needs of your mouth is used to educate patients so that they can make the best possible informed decisions concerning their dental care.

The Micro-Air Abrasion system is one of the reasons our patients can now have fillings done without anesthetic and in a very short time. This technology allows us to "sandblast" the decay out of your tooth and then fill the area with a liquid tooth colored filling. There is no pain and the fillings are very small.

For the times when anesthetic is necessary, the Wand is available. It is a computerized system for giving shots that are pain-free and can achieve maximum numbness, so no pain is felt during dental procedures.

Computerized Dental X-Rays are a tremendous advance in dental technology. This is a system that allows us to take necessary x-rays with a sensor using 90% less radiation than conventional x-rays. The x-rays are then digitally transferred to an office database where they are stored and available for later use. Both the patient and the doctor can view the x-rays, allowing for an accurate diagnosis.

Patients really appreciate being a part of their dental diagnosing.
