Dental Imaging Software

Dental imaging software allows us to simulate cosmetic and other procedures so you can see the effect on your smile before we start! We take digital pictures of your teeth and then use a sophisticated computer simulation program to create the projected "after" images.

Soft Tissue Laser

Modern soft tissue lasers are used to cosmetically contour gums, lengthen crowns to provide ample structure for restoration, and treat pockets of infection during gum treatment.

Lasers help sterilize the treatment site, provide the maximum amount of control, minimize bleeding, and are virtually painless during the procedure and post-operatively.

Hard Tissue Laser

The DeLight™ Erbium YAG dental laser is a pulsed light that provides pinpoint accuracy to gently remove decay without the need for anesthesia or the drill in most cases.

The ErYAG dental laser helps sterilize as it works and is less traumatic to the tooth than the drill. Bond strengths of white fillings to the tooth are also improved by 50% over conventional techniques.

TMJ Doppler

Doppler auscultation is a valuable adjunct to clinical and radiographic assessment of TMJ disorders in our office. Listening carefully to the joint sounds provided by the DOPPLER yields highly reliable information about the status of the condyle-disc assembly (jaw joint).

Advanced Medications

As part of the comprehensive treatment we offer our patients, we have chosen an ultrasonic instrument, the Pro-Select 3®, that is based on piezoelectric techology. This instrument is the latest in ultrasonic techology .This instrument was chosen because of it's effectiveness in removing plaque, tarter and stains while at the same time being more comfortable to the patient than traditional older techology ultrasonic scaling systems.The Pro-Select 3® system also is designed to gently administer medicaments under the gums when needed. Both our hygienists have the Pro-Select 3® system in their respective operatories, as part of their armamentarium in helping our patients with their periodontal care.

Precision Zeiss Optics

Dr. Garant has been using magnification for all operative procedures for approx 15 years. According to Dr. Garant, "Your hands are only as good as your eyes." Dr. Garant uses Zeiss magnification in all procedures to perform at a level of precision otherwise not possible.

Intraoral Camera

Our intraoral camera uses a tiny fiber-optic wand to easily take vivid photographs of the inside of your mouth. This allows us to let you see what we see.

Veneers

New technology in veneer fabrication allows us to perform dazzling transformations.

White fillings

Although white fillings have been around for a long time, the new materials can now be used in a wider range of applications allowing you to keep your smile as white as it can be!
