Patient comfort in South Florida
Technology should be an invisible tool that helps make your dental visits more affordable, quick and comfortable. That’s why we lead the South Florida dental industry in offering a number of key high-tech innovations that will help change your concept of a traditional dental visit — forever!
CEREC
Crowns in one visit; you can have that here! Using CAD/CAM technology, we can create your new crown WHILE YOU WAIT and you can even watch it being designed and fabricated. No more temporaries, no more second appointment. And this technology creates a restoration that is the closest thing to your natural tooth. Your crown will look, feel and function like your natural tooth did. Read more about CEREC.
Lasers
Some of the most recent advancement in dentistry is the use of laser technology to replace traditional surgical techniques. With our patient’s comfort in mind we decided to implement using a laser for procedures that required a blade and scalpel in the past. The laser technology allows for more precise treatment, there is fewer traumas to the tissue and improved healing and recovery time.
Digital Radiography
In just a few seconds, our digital sensors will x-ray your mouth and create a computer-generated scan on our computers. This gives us a 360-degree view of your entire mouth. These panoramic digital images allow us to reduce radiation exposure by up to 75% compared to traditional x-ray machines used by other practices.
Intraoral Camera
Our advanced “mouth” cameras allow us to quickly look inside your mouth and get an extensive understanding of what areas of your teeth need work and what doesn’t! It’s a fantastic dental tool that makes your visit more comfortable reduces time spent in the dental chair.
Patient Education
We are always the first to educate you about your dental needs. Using videos and our iPAD application; DDS GP, we are able to visually demonstrate the hundreds of dental procedures that we provide in our office, so you are always kept informed.
Sterilization Center
We take instrument cleanliness and sterilization extremely seriously. We have a central sterilization area and follow the strictest levels of OSHA standards for infection control. Your health is our priority!
Additional Patient Comforts
We know you are giving up time from your job and/or family to visit our dental practice. That’s why each treatment room has individual television screens right over the dental chair that you control. We also have a collection of movies and sitcoms that you can choose from. Catch up on your latest shows while you receive your dental care!
Electrical Dental Handpieces
Many patients are uncomfortable with some of the sounds they hear in the dental office. We now use advanced high-speed electric dental drills that make almost no sound! And, they help reduce the amount of time is needed to actually drill the teeth because they are incredibly powerful and fast. They help the dentist create more precise restoration and reduce your time in the dental chair. Our patients appreciate this change!
Apex Locator
When performing root canals, we use an Apex Locator to locate the tip of your tooth. This ensures that all infection is removed from the tooth root, ensures that the medicine to treat the infection is placed properly and helps reduce the amount of time you spend in the dental chair.
