Digital X-Rays
Digital X-rays provide an 80% reduction in radiation exposure compared to standard dental film, and do not require any hazardous chemicals. Using this technology, our dentists can view, magnify, and electronically store high-quality images of your teeth, roots, and jaws.
Amalgam Separator
When we remove silver dental fillings from our patients, this system captures the metal material, which includes trace amounts of mercury, and keeps it from contaminating the environment.
Brushing & Flossing
Flossing contributes to good dental hygiene because it lifts and removes plaque and food in between your teeth. Brushing also removes plaque and food debris, but the bristles of a toothbrush can’t reach deep in between teeth to remove it all. Therefore, flossing helps keep your mouth as clean as possible.
Paperless Charting
Our “chart-free” office has used Electronic Medical Records (EMR) since 2004 to streamline communication and provide better security, as well as a more environmentally friendly solution.
Home Care Tips
Drink fluoridated water and brush with fluoride toothpaste. Practice good oral hygiene. Brush teeth thoroughly twice a day and floss daily between the teeth to remove dental plaque. Visit your dentist at least once a year, even if you have no natural teeth or have dentures.
Sealants
Dental sealants are thin, plastic coatings that seal over the narrow grooves found on the chewing surfaces of back teeth (molars and premolars).
Exams & Cleanings
A dental examination can either be a specific check-up for your ongoing dental problem or a regular dental check-up of your oral health, including scanning for tooth decay, gum disease, cavities, oral cancer, and other dental conditions. Some dentists even emphasize getting dental x-rays to analyze inconspicuous areas to the naked eye.
Dental X-Rays
Dental X-rays (radiographs) are images of your teeth that your dentist uses to evaluate your oral health. These X-rays are used with low levels of radiation to capture images of the interior of your teeth and gums.
