For the convenience for our patients and our team, we have the advantage of accessing an on-site dental laboratory. This means less wait time and better color matches for our cosmetic cases. When we have the ability to consult with the technician that will complete your case, we minimize the communication breakdown that may occur due to the distance factor. Your smile and healthy, fully-functioning mouth is our priority.
Our on-site laboratory is a fundamental cornerstone of our comprehensive practice. Having a technician in the office allows us to service you in a healthy, expedient, and affordable manner. Utilizing modern technology, we have shifted away from metal prosthesis into a world of highly aesthetic, bio-compatible ceramic restorations.
Incorporating a lab into the practice has proven to be a substantial boost to our level of care. We can repair prosthetic deficiencies on-site same day. We have eliminated the cost and waste of shipping along with the hazardous toxins of unwelcome materials. We can control our materials, using the most bio-compatible materials available. Our patients are welcome to material test our compounds and utilize other options as well.
State-of-the-Art Digital Radiography
Fast, easy and efficient… The advantage of digital radiography is having instant images. The image is larger and easier to read, interpret, and be explained to our patients. Incorporation of this technology has proven to significantly reduce radiation exposure in our practice.
Health Benefits of Digital X-Ray: Digital radiation allows us to acquire the needed x-rays with 50-90% less radiation than traditional x-ray equipment. Each dental chair is equipped with a flat panel video monitor where you are able to see firsthand the results of your x-rays. In this learning environment you are able to take an active role in the decisions pertaining to your oral health.
Diagnostic Benefits of Digital X-Rays: Digital x-ray images capture greater detail and are able to be manipulated to increase the clarity of oral problems that would otherwise go undetected. This technology allows us to better diagnose tooth decay, periodontal disease, cancer, abnormal growths in the jaw bones, cavitations, sinus abnormalities, and TMJ disorders. The end result is a higher level of care for our patients. Accurate measurement lead to improved treatment planning. Implants can be placed with greater precision and success.
Environmental Benefits: Not only is this system beneficial to your health, but it is also environmentally friendly. Unlike traditional x-rays, digital x-rays do not require hazardous developing solutions or lead covered films, which end up polluting the environment. We are proud to eliminate the two major sources of waste in the dental office; mercury from old amalgam fillings and the lead from the film packets. We are constantly striving to reduce our footprint and optimize our patient care.
