Intraoral Camera

Before intraoral cameras, dentists had to describe issues they saw in patients’ mouths. Whether we’ve found a cavity or gum disease, having the full picture can be much more effective and powerful to help you move forward with treatment. With these small cameras, we are able to show you in real time exactly what we see, increasing your knowledge and enabling you to make smarter decisions about your oral health.

Digital X-Rays

X-rays have played an important part in dentistry for many years, but fortunately, technology has made these necessary images even better. Not only can our digital technology make these images clearer than ever before, but we are also able to see the images right away on our chairside screens without the need for harsh chemicals for development. That saves us time and helps us protect the environment. In addition, digital technology reduces your exposure to radiation by as much as 90 percent!

CT-Cone-Beam-Scanner

CT/Cone Beam Scanner

For more complex procedures, such as dental implant placement or root canal therapy, our dentists like to have as much information as possible. Dental X-rays reveal underlying bone structure, but the 3D images that a CT cone beam scanner captures let us know where blood vessels and nerve points are. With this information, we are able to avoid complications and facilitate faster healing. We utilize a mobile CT cone beam service that brings this device to our dental office when we need it.

Digital Impression System

Have you had traditional dental impressions taken before? Putty impressions can be uncomfortable to say the least and, if not done properly, can create an inaccurate model. As a result, your oral appliance or restoration may not fit perfectly the first time. That’s why we use digital impressions. A small device scans your teeth and mouth, taking precise measurements. This method not only tends to be more accurate is much more comfortable for the patient.

Dental-3D-printer

Dental 3D printer

Dental 3D printers enable in house, high-accuracy (approx. 35-50 microns) fabrication of dental models, surgical guides, aligners, and crowns using resin-based technologies like DLP, SLA, and LCD. Leading systems for practices and labs include SprintRay Pro 2, Formlabs Form 4B, and Asiga MAX 2, offering fast automated workflows for same-day dentistry.

Cavity Detection System

When a cavity is just beginning to form on a tooth, it can be difficult to spot, even for the trained eye. To catch even the smallest trace of a cavity, we use our cavity detection system, which illuminates where decay has started to develop. As a result, we can treat the tooth long before the cavity has the chance to become a serious, painful problem for you down the road. This also allows you to retain more of your natural tooth structure for the long term.

Toothaches

Is my toothache a dental emergency? While not every toothache is considered a dental emergency, you’ll want to still visit our team just in case. This could sometimes be an indication that something is wrong with your smile. A toothache will qualify as an emergency if you experience the following:

How you should handle a toothache: You should first give us a call so that we understand the situation and can schedule an appointment. Afterward, try flossing around the pained tooth to remove any bothersome debris. Rinse your mouth with saltwater to alleviate inflammation and fight off infection. Place a cold compress on the outside of your mouth to reduce discomfort and swelling. Take over-the-counter pain medications like ibuprofen. Avoid using aspirin directly on your gums or teeth.

How we treat toothaches: Your treatment will depend on the root cause of your toothache. If it’s due to periodontal infection, then we’ll likely provide gum disease therapy. If your discomfort is due to an infection, then we can perform a root canal to save your tooth. But if it’s beyond repair, then our team may consider extracting it to preserve your oral health. We’ll be sure to assess your situation and determine the best way to relieve your pain and save your smile.

Chipped Tooth

Is a chipped tooth a dental emergency? Most chipped teeth don’t require immediate attention. However, you’ll still want to get it treated as soon as you can since a damaged tooth will be more vulnerable to future injury and infection later on.

How you should handle a chipped tooth: Try rinsing with warm water to clear out any tiny pieces of the tooth from your mouth. This way you can keep the area clean and bacteria-free. Avoid using the chipped tooth for biting or chewing anything. Feel free to cover it up with dental wax or sugarless gum if it feels sensitive.

How we treat chipped teeth: Although a chipped tooth may seem unsettling at first, it’s quite simple to treat. In most cases, we can easily repair and improve your condition with dental bonding. But if a front tooth is chipped and you’re worried about your appearance, you can consider getting veneers for a more comprehensive and longer-lasting solution.

Cracked Tooth

Is a cracked tooth a dental emergency? A cracked tooth is typically considered a dental emergency, as it will be more vulnerable to further damage, bacteria, and infection. However, if the injury is minor, then it may be able to wait a few days to get treated if necessary. That said, remember that very small cracks in your smile can be difficult to notice. If you experience any sensitivity or pain while chewing, especially after taking a blow to the face, then you might have a hidden crack that’ll require treatment.

How you should handle a cracked tooth: Firstly, gently rinse your mouth with water to remove any broken fragments of the tooth, clearing away bacteria in the process. Try covering up your tooth with dental wax or sugar-free gum if it feels sensitive. Keep away from chewing on that side of your mouth until you can see us.

How we treat cracked teeth: If the crack in your tooth is small, then we may be able to simply repair it with dental bonding. For more severe cracks, you may require protecting and strengthening it with a dental crown. In rare cases, a tooth that is beyond repair may need to be extracted and replaced altogether.
