Facilities, Equipment and Technology
Dentistry has made great advances in technology in recent years. We are
fortunate to be equipped with the latest in technology in all areas.
Diode Laser:
The Diode Laser is used in soft tissue surgery which has many
advantages such as disinfection of the wound, bio-stimulation of
tissues leading to faster healing and less post-operative pain. We
specifically use Diode lasers to treat and stop the progression of
Herpetic and Aphthous Ulcers. With the Laser we are able to cauterize
the nerve endings within the lesion and immediately alleviate pain,
itching and tingling at the site. The laser neutralizes the virus so
the lesion will progress from being an active lesion to a healing
phase.
Digital x rays : Digital
Radiography is one of the most significant advances in Dentistry in
the last decade. With digital x rays we are able to reduce radiation
exposure to patients up to 80% when compared to traditional film while
increasing our diagnostic proficiency. Also, we are able to eliminate
the use of harsh chemicals which is a benefit to the environment.
Digital x rays can easily be emailed to other specialists that might
be collaborating on your overall treatment, and also can be sent
electronically along with your claim to your insurance company to help
with the faster processing of your claim.
I
ntra Oral camera: An
Intraoral camera is a very small, pen – like camera that allow us to
take photos of your teeth and tissues. These photos become part of
your records and we use them for diagnosis, patient education,
communication with specialists, and for record keeping to track and
monitor certain conditions. In many cases we also send them along with
your claim to your insurance company to facilitate claim processing.
Magnification loupes:
Dr. Alvarez performs all her work under 4.5X Magnification Loupes,
which increases her visual acuity and insures the highest quality
results of dental procedures.
Cone Beam 3D - Scan Technology: 3D
x-rays are often called 3D scans, cone beams or CT scan. Cone beam 3D
scans are extremely safe and have very little radiation. We have the
option to scan a limited area or the entire mouth. We use the 3D scan
mainly for implant surgery. It helps me increase the safety and
precision of your dental implant surgery. We also use them for
endodontics (root canals) and it gives me very detailed information
when we are dealing with cracks or fractured teeth. The safety and
precision of the 3D scan allows me to do virtual surgery on my laptop
before I ever do it in your mouth! By having a 3D picture of your
mouth it reduces the number of surprises that can be encountered
during surgery. It allows me to see your nerves, bone arteries, bone
depressions, sinuses and every detail down to less than a 10
th of a
millimeter.
Sterisil Straw:
Because your safety and health is our main priority we have installed
a Sterisil Straw in each operatory. It is a system that continuously
desinfects the water in our dental unit lines which allows to
provide safe and clean water to our patients.
