Intra-Oral Camera
Intra-oral imaging provides a clear and detailed view of your mouth through pictures and videos, eliminating the need for uncomfortable impressions.
This technology allows us to display specific problem areas on a computer screen with unparalleled clarity, far beyond what a traditional mouth mirror can offer. Hand-held wands capture precise details of your teeth and gums, revealing even tiny cracks that could lead to future issues. By showing you these detailed images, we can more effectively explain the need for any recommended treatments.
Digital X-Ray
Digital sensors produce highly detailed x-ray images with significantly lower radiation exposure than traditional film x-rays. Here are the key benefits of advanced x-ray technology:
- Safety: Our digital x-ray system reduces radiation by up to 90% compared to older film-based methods.
- Time Savings: Instant image capture with digital sensors shortens your time in the dental chair.
- Better Outcomes: Enhanced image clarity improves our ability to accurately diagnose and treat conditions.
Soft Tissue Laser
Sometimes, lumps or bumps on your mouth’s soft tissues need removal. Traditionally, this required a surgical procedure with incisions and stitches for a biopsy. Now, with our pen-shaped laser wand, we can remove suspicious or bothersome growths in just minutes. The laser’s energy promotes swift healing with minimal discomfort and no need for stitches.
Lasers also allow for quick gum reshaping without bleeding and effective treatment of gum infections. Cold sores and mouth ulcers heal faster with laser treatment. Safe for children, these lasers can also assist with growth and development issues or help wisdom teeth move into place.
