Latest Technology

Our office uses modern, state-of-the-art technology to enhance patient comfort and to help you get the smile you deserve!

CEREC® is a computer-aided design and ceramic restoration system that allows us to create permanent restorations in our office. That means we can design, fabricate, and place an incredibly esthetic ceramic restoration in a single visit!

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.

The DIAGNOdent is a new high tech laser system that aids in early diagnosis of cavities in the complex anatomy of the chewing surfaces of teeth. It utilizes laser light of a defined wavelength to help detect and quantify demineralized tooth substances without x-ray exposure.

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.

This system connects a computer database to a voice-activated headset so we can quickly, easily, and accurately record individual measurements when performing a periodontal exam.

Creating restorations that look natural and function is both an art and a science. The science deals with the proper diagnoses, design and preparation of the teeth. The art involves the creation of a tooth that looks natural and is in harmony with the rest of the mouth. In our office, we have the capability to change, enhance and individualize the color, shape and texture of our restorations. This service practically eliminates the need for more appointments and our patients really appreciate this.

Our treatment areas and our waiting room are equipped with state-of-the-art patient-education DVD systems. If you are uncertain about a particular procedure, we will be happy to play the DVD video segment for you.

New technology in veneer fabrication allows us to perform dazzling transformations with minimal surface preparation.

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!
