Technology

In order to protect the health of both our patients and staff, we have implemented the following measures:

• We have installed IQAir filtration.
• We have replaced all HVAC filters to Merv 13 and better (hospital grade filtration).
• We are implementing electronic prescriptions (so we will require your pharmacy information).

Our dentists are using 3Shape TRIOS®, a digital hand-held scanner with a small tip that fits into your mouth.

TRIOS creates a 3D image of your teeth in just minutes (sometimes less), without you having to tolerate gooey impression material in your mouth. Furthermore, TRIOS core scanning technology is camera-based, so no radiation is used during the scanning process. TRIOS is state-of-the-art dentistry, with minimal hassle and maximum benefits.

The scan of your teeth will be displayed on a screen for you to examine, review and discuss with your dentist, enabling you to be more actively involved in your treatment.

Keep Your Teeth in Great Check

TRIOS makes it possible for your dentist to track any concerning changes in your teeth and easily identify any harmful habits, such as grinding your teeth while you sleep. By comparing scans between visits, your dentist will recognize any issues sooner, respond to them quicker and optimize your dental health, every step of the way. TRIOS® can simulate how your teeth will look after certain treatments, so you can see the predicted improvements that will be made to your teeth before treatment starts.

Fast-Track Treatment

TRIOS allows your dentist to perform treatments, like restoring damaged teeth with crowns, or straightening teeth with clear aligners, much faster – sometimes, even within one visit. Quicker treatment timeframes give you more time to enjoy the fun things in life!

We have implemented Teledentistry to help quarantined patients and high-risk patients who cannot visit our office in person.

Digital x-rays reduce the amount of radiation needed as compared to film x-rays.  The improved diagnostic capability of digital x-rays and the ability to view the x-rays on a computer screen allow the patient to better understand and follow treatment.  Digital x-rays are instant, there is no longer a need to develop the film.  Digital x-rays save time and increase patient care.  It’s also a very green technology.  By eliminating film, developer and chemical waste it is better for you and the environment!

Using Electronic Medical Records our practice is able to quickly and accurately access patient information in order to provide the utmost in patient care.  This helps to ensure patient confidentiality as well as reduce the need for paper.  Using a digital format allows for quick access to your information when needed for insurance records yet provides a secure filing system.

An intraoral camera combines the latest video technologies with dental care. Both the patient and dentist can see detailed images of the teeth and mouth in real time.  With an intraoral camera, you are able to better understand what is happening in your mouth and review the status of your oral health.
