Dental Technology
Intraoral Camera
We believe that by educating patients, we empower them to take control of their oral health and make informed decisions about treatment. Our intraoral camera is an invaluable tool when presenting dental conditions in the chair. A small, handheld camera can take high-resolution images of single teeth or a small area of the mouth. When cracks, gum disease or wear is visible, we can show patients exactly what our dentists see when examining the teeth.
Intraoral cameras also make it convenient to track changes in oral health over time. Because images are stored in your digital chart, we can instantly compare them from one visit to the next.
Digital X-Rays
Periodic dental x-rays reveal conditions that we cannot always see through visual examination alone, making them an important tool in early diagnosis. The ability to detect decay, bone health and density, root health, infection, cysts and tumours are some of the ways that x-rays assist dentists in planning and providing dental care. Digital dental x-rays also assist in surgical procedures, such as dental implant placement and extractions.
Digital dental x-rays provide us with instant high-resolution images, using only one-quarter of the radiation as film x-rays, improving safety and convenience for our patients.
