Painless
Dentistry |
Air abrasion, also
called "microabrasion" is a method of tooth
structure removal considered to be an effective
alternative to the standard dental drill. You'll hear us
use the term "KCP", which stands for kinetic
cavity preparation. An air abrasion handpiece blows a powerful air
stream of tiny, fine powder out of its tip onto tooth
structure and blasts the decay away. This procedure is virtually painless,
which, in most cases, eliminates the need for any
anesthetic.
There are some treatments, like crown and bridge
preparation, that still require the use of a dental
drill. Although air abrasion can't be used as an
alternative in every procedure, it works well in many
situations. |

New
Technology |
| The dental care that
you and your family receive in our office always
includes state of the art equipment that can benefit you
in many ways. Among the newest technologies is a small
laser instrument called the DIAGNOdent, which
scans your teeth with harmless laser light searching for
hidden decay. A pen like probe simply glides over the tooth
surfaces constantly checking the health of the tooth. A
number scale and an alarm signals us when there are
signs of hidden decay. X-ray and probing with an explorer are simply
unreliable in detecting sub surface decay, particularly
when the cavity is in its early stages. This unique instrument allows us to locate hidden
decay, and with treatment stop the spread of disease
before it destroys the tooth from within. |

Case 1....Amalgam
(silver) Replacement
|
| In this
procedure, tooth-colored bonded restorations are used to
replace old, worn-out silver fillings. This type
of treatment restores the strength of the tooth, and
helps avoid a potential breaking of teeth caused by
amalgam fillings. As you can see, the new
tooth-colored fillings are also much more attractive. |

Case 2....Fixing
Discolored Teeth
|
This
particular person had discolored teeth that were
drastically improved with the use of composite and
porcelain veneers. Yellowing teeth are a common
occurrence for many people, and are easier to correct
than you might think. A home bleaching kit can
also give you guaranteed results to brighten your smile.
