Better Treatment Through Technology

Intraoral Cameras

This pen-like camera allows us to explore your mouth and take pictures that we can display on a monitor. We can even print a hard copy. With these up-close images, you will be able to better visualize your dental condition.

The intraoral camera helps us spot potential problems like cracked fillings, fractures in teeth, and the beginnings of decay. With this revolutionary tool, we can provide early diagnosis of small problems before they become larger problems. Back to Services.

	Cosmetic Imaging Ever wonder what you would look like with a whiter smile or straighter teeth? Now there is no need to wonder. With cosmetic imaging, you will get a preview of the results of cosmetic treatment, before treatment has even begun. We can show you how you would look with veneers, crowns, bridges, whitening, bonding, tooth-colored restorations and more. Take some of the guesswork out of your decision and see your ultimate smile!

	Air Abrasion—Drill-less Dentistry Air Abrasion can remove the early stages of decay, and can repair worn, chipped or cracked teeth. This new technology uses a pressurized flow of a tiny abrasive powder that gently wears away the decay or damaged tooth material. It is especially effective when treating our young patients. Air Abrasion is fast, pain-free and helps retain as much of your natural tooth structure as possible. In many cases, Air Abrasion eliminates the use of an injection or drilling. Back to Services.
	DIAGNOdent—Laser Detection of Dental Decay Decay can be sneaky! In its early stages, you cannot see it with the naked eye. It can even be difficult to spot in x-rays until it advances. With DIAGNOdent, we can catch cavities before your tooth is even at risk. DIAGNOdent is a slim tool that we glide over your teeth, scanning them with a harmless laser. DIAGNOdent enables us to detect decay in its earliest stages, before it progresses and damages the tooth structure. Back to Services.
	Patient Education on DVD Sometimes it is easier to make decisions when you can see and hear all the options available to you. Which is why we have CAESY Patient Education on DVD. The programs on CAESY help us explain your treatment options visually, with more than 170 easy-to-understand explanations, photos, and 3-D animation presentations. With CAESY’s help, you will know what to expect during the procedure, and you will have confidence in your treatment decisions. For your convenience, we also include this patient education on our Web site, so you always have access to the information you need. Back to Services.
