At M&G Family Dentistry, we’re proud to offer the latest in dental advancements to give our patients the highest level of treatment available. Our modern office is fitted with state-of-the-art technology to make your experience safe and efficient. Some of the technological advancements we use in our office are:
A digital x-ray is connected to a computer, so images appear directly on the computer screen—no need to hold any film up to light. Digital x-rays also produce 90% less radiation than traditional x-rays, making them safer for you and your family. The images are high-quality and develop almost immediately, so you can be in and out of the office in no time.
Laser dentistry can be used to treat a wide variety of issues. It’s sterile, virtually pain-free, and reduces the recovery time for many procedures. Lasers can help control bleeding and eliminate bacteria, making it a safe and effective option for many treatments.
Gone are the days when x-rays were the only way to take a picture of a patient’s mouth. Our intraoral camera allows our staff to take high-resolution photos of the inside of the mouth, making it easier for both patients and our dentists to see what’s going on.
The CBCT systems used by dental professionals rotate around the patient, capturing data using a cone-shaped X-ray beam. The data is used to reconstruct a 3D image of the mouth, jaw, neck, ears, nose, and throat.
Uses:Dental CBCT systems are used for various clinical applications including dental implant planning, visualization of abnormal teeth, evaluation of the jaw and face, cleft palate assessment, diagnosis of dental cavities, root canal, and dental trauma.
The iTero scanner digitally captures the structure of the teeth and gums using the latest optical technology. The scanner is a compact, hand-held wand. Once the scanning process begins, it can be stopped and started as many times as necessary.
Your mouth is scanned with a radiation-free laser, and in as little as two to three minutes, the laser renders a digitally perfect, 3D impression of your teeth and soft tissue structures. Through digital software, you’ll then be able to follow the progress of the scans, including a 3D model of your teeth on our computer screen.
