Vizilite® Oral Cancer Screen

Oral cancer screening technology utilizes specialized fluorescence visualization devices to detect potentially cancerous and pre-cancerous lesions that may not be visible to the naked eye. This non-invasive screening method helps identify suspicious tissue changes at their earliest stages, when treatment is most effective. The screening process is quick, painless, and can be performed during routine dental check-ups, making it an essential tool in preventive dental care and early cancer detection.

Intraoral 3D Scanning and Scanner Technology

Intraoral 3D scanning is a state-of-the-art digital technology that uses advanced scanners to capture precise three-dimensional images of teeth and gums. Unlike traditional dental impressions, this technology uses sophisticated optical systems to create digital models that can be permanently stored and even 3D printed. The scanner provides immediate on-screen visualization of oral structures and serves multiple dental applications, including crowns, bridges, implants, and orthodontic treatments. This modern approach not only enhances patient comfort by eliminating conventional impression materials but also provides dental professionals with more accurate data for treatment planning.

CBCT

CBCT is a specialized type of X-ray technology that provides three-dimensional (3D) images of a patient's teeth, bones, airway, TMJ and nerve pathways. It offers far more detail than traditional two-dimensional dental X-rays.

Implant Navigation

Navident is a dynamic navigation system for dental implant surgery that provides real-time guidance and tracking. This advanced technology allows dentists to perform precise, minimally invasive implant procedures by following a pre-planned surgical path on a computer screen. Using optical tracking cameras and specialized software, Navident helps ensure accurate implant placement while protecting vital structures like nerves and sinuses, ultimately leading to better patient outcomes and reduced recovery time.

Digital X Rays

Dental digital x-rays are a modern imaging technique used in dentistry to capture images of teeth, gums, and jaw structures. Unlike traditional film x-rays, digital x-ray requires 80% less radiation compared to traditional x ray. These images can be viewed immediately on the computer screen which allow us to see decay, infections, impacted teeth, bone loss and many other oral-related problems.

IntraOral Cameras

Intraoral cameras are allowing us to capture high-resolution images of the inside of a patient’s mouth. It plays a crucial role in modern dental care by enhancing diagnostics, patient education, and treatment planning.

Fotona LightWalker® Dental Laser

Fotona laser technology represents a state-of-the-art approach to various dental procedures. This versatile dental laser system can be used for both hard and soft tissue treatments, including cavity preparation, gum surgery, root canal therapy, and teeth whitening. The laser's precise energy delivery minimizes trauma to surrounding tissues, reduces bleeding and swelling, and often eliminates the need for anesthesia in certain procedures. Patients typically experience faster healing times and less post-operative discomfort compared to traditional dental treatments.

Fotona StarFormer®

The StarFormer® is a magnetic stimulation device that helps build and tone muscles to help shape and tone the body.
