Technologies at Our Dental Clinic
Our dental technology helps inform treatment planning and make your dental appointments run smoothly. In addition, because we can display digital X-rays and scans on the monitors in our treatment rooms, we can show you any issues in your mouth and walk you through your treatment plan.
Our goal is to provide patients with dental care while making sure they are fully informed about their oral health. Dental technology helps us do that.
Digital X-Rays
Digital X-rays use digital sensors instead of traditional photographic X-ray film. They produce highly detailed computer images of the teeth, gums, and other oral structures, allowing your dentist to examine parts of the mouth that are not visible to the naked eye.
Intraoral Scanners
Intraoral scanners create digital dental impressions, an alternative to traditional dental impressions which can be messy and time-consuming. Your dentist simply uses an optical scanning wand to take a digital image of your teeth within minutes.
Oral Cancer Screening Device
The VELscope® is an oral cancer screening device that helps the dentist identify abnormalities and diseases in the mouth, such as cancerous and pre-cancerous lesions. Using fluorescence visualization technology, this device allows us to perform screenings in your dentist’s office during routine exams.
