What New Technologies are Being Used?

Digital Radiographs:

Radiographs are taken using digital imaging. This technology reduces the patient’s exposure to radiation by up to 90%, increases accuracy, eliminates harmful chemicals, and shortens procedure time. Images are displayed on a computer monitor, rather than traditional dental film, providing patients the opportunity to see and understand our diagnosis. We’ve found that patients are more comfortable pursuing treatment when they can see why it is necessary. These images are also printed, archived, and sent to your dentist.

Operating Microscopes:

In addition to digital radiography, we utilize special operating microscopes. Magnification and fiber optic illumination are helpful in aiding the doctor to see minute details inside your tooth. Also, a tiny video camera on the microscope can record images of your tooth to further document the doctor's findings.

Apex Locators:

We also employ advanced electronic root-length measurement technology to verify the dimensions of each root canal. This is accomplished by connecting an instrument to a device that corresponds to the tactile sensation of the instrument to the device’s meter, once the device is at the apex (end) of the root canal; the meter provides a signal to indicate the precise length of the root. The apex locator allows us to be efficient and accurate during each procedure.
