Three-Dimensional Dentistry!
We are excited as one of the first dental practices in the area to employ 3-D cone beam CT digital imaging technology. You might think of this as a three-dimensional X-ray that is much more accurate than older film X-rays, less time consuming, and doing everything with much less radiation.
One big advantage of using cone beam images when evaluating patients and creating treatment options is a dentist’s ability to see the patient’s oral anatomy in 3-D, instead of the flat, two-dimensional images you’re used to seeing. The result of this is much greater precision for all dental treatment, especially implant placement or any oral surgery

Isolite™ — Making Your Visit More Comfortable
We are excited to offer a new technology that makes dental care a lot more comfortable. This device is called Isolite. It’s a suction device with a bright light that illuminates the mouth and eliminates any shadows. Here’s what this means to you.
- Patients find they spend about a third less time at their dental visits.
- Patients don’t get a “drowning” or “gagging” impulse because there is no saliva buildup.
- Debris won’t be accidentally swallowed since your mouth is continuously being “vacuumed.”
- Your mouth doesn’t get tired since you aren’t holding it open yourself during extended treatment.
- The strong illumination helps the team with accuracy.
Effective dentistry requires a dry “field” for best possible results. The Isolite device keeps teeth and gums dry and usually eliminates the necessity for a cumbersome rubber dam.
