Intraoral Cameras
We want you to be an active participant in your child’s dental care, and it’s easier to do that when you can see the problem areas for yourself. With our intraoral cameras, we can take pictures of your child’s mouth from a variety of angles. You’ll be able to see these images for yourself on our convenient chairside monitor. We’ll point to any concerning issues – such as signs that tooth decay has started to occur – and explain what treatments are available to help your child continue to enjoy a healthy smile.
All-Digital Dental X-Rays
While having X-rays taken at the dentist’s office is not a new concept, many practices have made the switch from traditional X-rays to digital ones. This approach is much safer for your child since it reduces the level of radiation they’re exposed to by as much as 80 percent. (Note that we will use radiation shields during the scanning process.) Needless to say, high-quality digital X-ray images are invaluable when it comes to identifying oral health problems that we might not be able to catch with the naked eye alone.
LightScalpel® CO2 Laser
For certain treatments, we make use of our LightScalpel CO2 laser. One of the advantages of using a dental laser is comfort; oftentimes, we won’t even need to numb your child’s mouth beforehand, and there will be less bleeding afterward. On top of that, dental lasers are very precise, allowing us to treat the problem areas while leaving nearby healthy tissues alone.
