Like any area of health care, dentistry has benefited from new technologies. These advances have resulted in faster, more efficient treatment and significant improvements in patient comfort. At Stoney Mountain Dental Care we are committed to offering the latest innovations in dental treatments and technology. A small sampling of the technologies we use is included below.
Digital X-rays
Digital X-Rays use up to 90% less radiation than traditional x-rays and do not require harmful toxic chemicals for film development which eliminate the use of plastic film packets.
The x-ray image immediately appears on a computer screen to enable both the patient and the dentist to review immediately.
Digital x-rays provide convenient, accurate diagnostic imaging at minimal environmental impact and radiation exposure.
Surgically Clean Air
Our office has Surgically Clean Air. As the safety of patients and staff is a top priority, we are going beyond sterilizing our dental office and treatment rooms to also sterilizing the air we breathe.
We have installed the Surgically Clean Air JADE air purifying system, a world-class medical grade air purifier that kills airborne viruses and helps reduce the spread of germs.
Sterilization involves a 6-stage filtration system that captures and kills viruses, bacteria, volatile organic chemicals (VOC’s), dust, pollen, allergens, mold and bio-aerosols. The negative ion generator makes indoor air feel more pure, clean and energized to help combat fatigue.
We are proud to offer this technology and know that you can breathe a clean sigh of relief during your next dental visit.
Intra-Oral Cameras
Intra-Oral Cameras bring your dental health to life when you can see what we see. Specialized handheld wands quickly capture images that can be viewed with our patients on TV screens.
This painless and no-radiation technique lets you see dental problems such as tooth decay or fractured teeth. Together we can discuss a treatment plan for restoring your mouth to excellent health.
Velscope®
Velscope® is the leading device for oral cancer screening. This tool is essential for early detection of various cancers as well as other tissue abnormalities. The entire screening process takes less than two minutes, is completely non-invasive, and requires no rinses or dyes.
Electric Handpieces
Electric handpieces are much stronger than traditional air-driven handpieces due to the fact that a motor is spinning the bur as opposed to air. This will allow the doctor to perform a more precise and faster tooth preparation with much less noise and chatter.
We have made new technology a part of our practice because of the clear difference it makes in the dental treatments we offer. Talk to us today to learn more 905-692-2273.
