INTRA -ORAL CAMERA
People seldom have a clear idea of the actual status
of their dental health. Even with lights and mirrors,
it is difficult to see anything but the front of your
own teeth, or portions of the backs and side areas.
But intraoral cameras have changed all of that. Now
you can sit comfortably back in the chair while the
dentist or hygienist inserts a small pen-sized,
camera-tipped wand into your mouth. The wand is
hygienically covered with a disposable plastic sheath
for contamination prevention. The camera takes a
video of your teeth and gums inside your mouth and
transmits the images to the television monitor in the
operatory. The images are in full-color and large so
you can see your dental concerns. Suddenly both you
and your dentist are able to view together every last
detail of your oral health.
COMPUTER SMILE IMAGING
At your initial smile makeover consultation, we will
take a digital picture of your smile and have it
computer enhanced to show you how your new smile is
expected to look.
LASER CAVITY DETECTION SYSTEM
We use laser technology (diagnodent laser) to
accurately diagnosis hidden tooth decay. This process
is safe, easy and painless. More and more patients
place value on healthy and attractive teeth. In order
to maintain them, the earliest possible care is
essential. DIAGNOdent helps you with early detection.
Even very small lesions are detected at the earliest
stage, enabling you to protect and preserve the tooth
substance.
DIGITAL DENTAL RADIOGRAPHY (X-RAYS)
Digital x-rays reduce the patient's exposure to
radiation as much as 90 percent over traditional
X-rays. The x-ray images are immediately then brought
up on a television screens in each operatory and
discussed with the patient.
MULTIMEDIA OPERATORIES
Each operatory is outfitted with television monitors
which can display satelite programming, DVDs, VHS
tapes, intra-oral video footage, x-ray images and
local programming. CD players with headphones are
also available for your comfort and convenience.
