Our office uses modern, state-of-the-art technology to enhance patient comfort and to help you get the smile you deserve!
Computer Digital Radiography (CDR)
Dental
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.
Air Abrasion
Air
Abrasion is a gentle spray of an air and powder that gently sprays away tooth
decay. There is no heat, vibration or sound, like there is from a drill. The
procedure is relatively painless, therefore not always requiring an injection.
Air abrasion is a very precise technology and usually removes less tooth structure
for a filling than a drill would.
For
In-Office bleaching, we utilize the advanced BriteSmile light-activated process.

Intraoral Camera
Our intraoral camera
uses a tiny fiber-optic wand to easily take vivid photographs of the inside
of your mouth. This allows us to let you see what we see.
MicroDentistry
MicroDentistry means finding decay as early as possible so that treatment can be done with minimal removal of natural tooth structure. Restorations (fillings) are the smallest possible, esthetically pleasing, and long-lasting.
Veneers
New
technology in veneer fabrication allows us to perform dazzling transformations
with minimal surface preparation.

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!
