Television
and Stereo Headphones
View television in the studio during treatment. You
can also bring your favorite video to watch. We also offer stereo headphones
if you prefer to listen to relaxing music while we create your new smile.
Electric
Hand pieces
Quiet electric hand pieces (drills) shape your teeth when needed. We know
that the sound of a dental drill is very offensive to many patients. The new
Bien Aire electric hand pieces from Switzerland are much quieter and do not
have the annoying whine of the old air driven hand pieces. Also they have less
vibration and run more smoothly and concentric which produces more accurate
results.
Radiosurgery
Radiosurgery is used to modify and shape soft tissues in the mouth. It is
also use to help bleach root canal teeth that have darkened following root
canal therapy. In cosmetic dentistry radiosurgery is often used to reduce
"gummy" smiles or to recontour asymmetrical gum tissue.
State
of the Art Sterilization and Disinfection
Our sterilization methods meet or exceed the standards set by the Center for
Disease Control. All instruments are washed, scrubbed, placed in an ultrasonic
disinfectant solution, then placed in the sterilizer at high temperatures.
Photography
and Models
Photography and models are used extensively for each patient. This combines
the art and science of aesthetic cosmetic dentistry. Photography and models
are used to plan the case, make precise measurements, and communicate with
patients and laboratory technicians. These tools are also indispensable for documentation.
** Digital radiography available at selected locations.
