		CEREC We know your time is valuable. That is why we provide CEREC technology, an easier and faster experience for our patients. With CEREC, we can complete your crown or veneers, in one appointment. There is no need for an impression, temporary, a second appointment, or a second shot! Everything is done, start to finish, in one visit. The restorations are metal free, and are more esthetic, better fitting and four times stronger than traditional crowns. Utilizing cad/cam technology, your tooth is optically scanned, and then the tooth is designed and made in the office.
		DIAGNODENT The Diagnodent is a device utilizing a laser to measure tooth density. What this means to you, we can detect cavities on the biting surfaces of your teeth before they are detectable with x-rays. By catching them early we can do very conservative fillings, often times without the need of anesthetic.You can find more information about this amazing device here: Diagnodent
		MAGNIFICATION LOUPES The doctors and even our hygienists wear surgical magnification loupes with a head mounted high intensity light. It is the standard of care, and we wouldn’t work without them!
		DIGITAL X-RAYS Our office utilizes digital x-rays. This technology benefits you by cutting the amount of radiation you are exposed to by more than 50%. It also benefits the environment. We have done away with the chemicals used to develop traditional x-rays, and all the waste produced by the actual film. Digital offers even more diagnostic benefits than film, in that we can magnify the x-ray on our computer screen. This allows us to share the image with you and better educate you on your oral health.
		INTRAORAL DIGITAL CAMERA Having the ability to take a picture of your tooth magnified forty times helps us see things that would be difficult even with our surgical loupes. Again, using this camera helps us in diagnosis and in educating you.
