HIGH-TECH DENTISTRY

We’re now in the digital age, and high-tech gadgetry is making dental visits more efficient, more effective, and less painful. Here are a few of the new tools of the trade, and how they may make your next visit to the chair a little more comfortable.

AIR ABRASION:

This technology uses an air compressor and a special hand piece that emits a fine stream of silica particles powered by a strong stream of air, resulting in virtually no vibration to the tooth. This is used to remove decay in intact teeth that have had no previous restorations. In most instances the patient does not need a local anesthetic because preparation of the tooth is painless and minimal tooth structure is removed. Another use includes the etching of the tooth for greater adhesion before sealants are applied.

CAD-CAM

This instrument is used to make porcelain inlays or onlays without the use of a dental laboratory. The use of this computerized milling machine enables the dentist to fabricate the porcelain restoration in one visit saving time and expense.

DIGITAL CAMERA

Dentist’s offices are using digital cameras to take full face pictures which are then placed into a computer for immediate magnified viewing on a monitor for doctor and patient examination of the mouth, teeth, and gums. These pictures can be printed for placement in your file or sent to insurance companies for verification of needed work.

DIGITAL RADIOGRAPHY

This technology provides film-less pictures and reduces the exposure to radiation by as much as 90 percent. The doctor gets instant retrieval on the computer for making a more accurate diagnosis of the problem and the patient gets enhanced understanding of dental problems due to the enlarged image on the monitor. Computer image processing can be enhanced, changed, or reversed for better diagnosis.

INTRAORAL CAMERA

This camera documents what is seen in the mouth by uploading it to a computer screen. It augments what can be seen by the naked eye, but also shows images that are not able to be seen. It allows microdental procedures to be performed with the use of the camera and monitor, and provides a printed picture to give to the patient or the insurance company.

LASERS

There are two types of lasers used in dentistry today. The soft tissue laser is used for gingival re-contouring or lesion removal. T he tissue has less bleeding, heals faster, and swelling is reduced.

The hard tissue laser is an instrument that may be used to trim or cut bone or teeth. Very fine cutting can be accomplished with this instrument that results in less chair time, cleaner operating field, and less trauma to the hard tissue structures.

Both soft and hard tissue laser use requires local anesthetic.

THE WAND

This instrument uses a computer-enhanced rate of anesthesia that controls the amount of anesthesia given to the patient during a procedure. This allows the patient to leave the office with less numbness in the lip and mouth than traditional methods.
