Power Whitening with the Zoom System:
Your smile is important. It's one of the
first things you notice when you meet
someone. A whiter, brighter smile is
beautiful - it can help you feel better
about yourself and make a memorable
impression. Your lifestyle and the natural
aging process can stain and darken your
teeth. Many things we do on a regular basis
can contribute to stained teeth, such as
drinking coffee, tea, cola and red wine or
smoking. |

Intraoral Camera:
This intraoral camera aids in educating
patients concerning dental problems. It
documents what is seen in the mouth by
uploading it to a computer screen and can
provide a printed picture for the patient or
the insurance company for verification of
treatment. |

Digital Radiography:
Digital Radiography refers to the
application of digital image processing
techniques. Traditionally, to find out
what’s going on inside your mouth, we had to
take a series x-rays, developing them in a
darkroom full of chemicals, and then
examining the resulting films on a special
light board. This outdated process is
entirely outmoded by digital radiography.
With Digital radiography you simply relax in
the dental chair while a tiny ‘sensor’ is
positioned briefly inside your mouth. The
sensor acts like a miniature camera, except
that its chip is sensitive to x-rays, not
light. The result is you are exposed to
50%-90% less radiation than with
traditional x-ray techniques. A highly
detailed image is almost instantaneously
translated onto the computer screen,
carrying with it all the conveniences of
other digitized images. It can be rotated,
magnified, adjusted for contrast, and even
color-coded for educational purposes. Allow
us to not only diagnos problems but show you
at the same time! |

NTI-TSS:
The N.T.I. Tension Suppression System is a
prefabricated polycarbonate matrix that a
dental practitioner retro-fits to the
patient's teeth. It is the first FDA
approved device that prevents medically
diagnosed migraine pain, tension-type
headaches, and jaw disorders ("TMJ"),
without drugs or surgery, through the
reduction of trigeminally innervated
muscular activity. |

Invisalign:
By using a series of clear, removable
aligners, Invisalign straightens your teeth
with results you'll notice sooner than you
think. The course of treatment involves
changing aligners approximately every two
weeks, moving your teeth into straighter
position step by step, until you have a more
beautiful smile. And unlike braces, these
clear aligners can be removed while you eat
and brush your teeth as usual. |

Implant:
A dental implant is an artificial tooth root
that is placed into your jaw to hold a
replacement tooth or bridge. Dental implants
are an ideal option for people in good
general oral health who have lost a tooth or
teeth due to periodontal disease, an injury,
or some other reason. While high-tech in
nature, dental implants are actually more
tooth-saving than traditional bridgework,
since implants do not rely on neighboring
teeth for support.
Dental implants are so natural-looking and
feeling, you may forget you ever lost a
tooth.You know that your confidence about
your teeth affects how you feel about
yourself, both personally and
professionally. Perhaps you hide your smile
because of spaces from missing teeth. Maybe
your dentures don't feel secure. Perhaps you
have difficulty chewing. If you are missing
one or more teeth and would like to smile,
speak and eat again with comfort and
confidence, there is good news! Dental
implants are teeth that can look and feel
just like your own! |
