Dental Technology in Sarasota, FL
We provide more comfortable and efficient treatment using modern dental technology and our dental tools.
Airflow® Cleaning System
We use the EMS Air Flow Cleaning system for gentler, faster teeth cleanings and gingivae (gums) cleanings. A directed spray of air, RO water, and glycine crystals removes biofilm, plaque, and stains from your teeth. We then use Piezon energized tips to remove calculus and tartar.
This two-phase cleaning procedure is surprisingly efficient and comfortable. Airflow® is especially innovative for care in cosmetic and restorative work, bridges, implants, and orthodontic appliances, like braces. Studies show that this is an improved method, and our patients prefer it.
CEREC and CAD/CAM
Our office uses traditional methods to create dental crowns and veneers. However, we also use CEREC. Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramic (CEREC) is a technology that we use to provide same-day dental crowns. CEREC uses computer-aided imaging and computer-aided design (CAD/CAM).
We don’t need impressions, temporary restorations, or multiple appointments with CEREC. We will prepare your tooth and place your restoration in one office visit. Patients can enjoy the convenience, comfort, and results of CEREC and CAD/CAM technology. This method can also create full-mouth makeover restorations.
CBCT
Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans use cone-shaped x-ray beams to take images of your mouth. CBCT machines rotate around the patient to take hundreds of images of the teeth, mouth, jaw, neck, ears, nose, and throat. This machine only takes about a minute to take these digital images.
Our dental office uses CBCT scans in treatment planning for patients with missing teeth, cavities, dental trauma, misaligned teeth, and TMJ problems. Unlike conventional x-rays, CBCT scans create three-dimensional images, meaning we can see the smile from many angles.
Soft-Tissue Laser
We use dental lasers to treat the soft tissues of the mouth. Dental lasers use targeted points of light and heat to cut the gum tissue. We can remove infected gum tissue and accurately contour the gums using a soft-tissue dental laser.
Laser treatments offer many benefits for our patients. Because dental lasers target tissue, they do not affect surrounding tissues that do not require treatment. The dental laser itself helps regenerate healthy tissue by stimulating collagen in the tissues themselves.
Digital X-rays
Digital x-rays are a preventive and diagnostic tool that provides important information not visible to the naked eye. We use x-rays to safely and accurately check for dental problems that would otherwise go unnoticed. This allows us to begin your treatment as soon as possible.
