Latest
Technology for Reduced Radiation
Introducing digital X-rays, available at our practice. With this
technology, an image is taken of your mouth with a digital sensor
and downloaded into our computer, where it is immediately available.
This method results in 75% less radiation than conventional X-rays.
No more waiting for images to develop and no more chemical waste to
pollute the environment.
A Camera that Creates Teamwork
Our promise to our patients is to work hand-in-hand with you to
successfully reach your goals through teamwork. We use the
intra-oral camera technology to show you a close view of the
interior of your mouth. With such an image, you can easily see what
we need to work on and be a part of each decision.

An
Advancement in Patient Comfort
Isolite™ is an astonishing new technology adding to the comfort of
your care. As dental procedures require a dry mouth, Isolite
protects the gums and teeth from moisture and eliminates the use of
a rubber dam. It also provides suction and a brilliant light to view
the oral cavity. This device makes treatment more efficient and
reduces the time a patient will spend in the chair by about a third.

Wine tasters may be at high risk for enamel stain and erosion.
Why? Sipping wine many times a day -- and swishing it in the mouth -- increases the enamel's exposure to damaging acids.
That is why it's better to drink a glass of wine, soda, or sweet tea with a meal instead of sipping it over several hours.

Your mother was right: Never open bottles, packages, or other containers with your teeth. You might permanently chip or crack the enamel.
Gnawing on anything else -- like pens or fingernails -- or chomping down on seeds, popcorn kernels, or ice could have the same result.

Mouthguard
Protection for your Teeth
Each year in the U.S., 5 million teeth are knocked out without the
use of mouthguard protection. A one-size-fits-all device sold in
stores can make breathing difficult during exertion. But a custom
made mouthguard will fit well and protect an individual in any
sport. The American Dental Association recommends this protection
for: field hockey, skiing, gymnastics, basketball, football,
lacrosse, handball, roller hockey, ice hockey, boxing, squash,
skateboarding, weight lifting, martial arts, surfing, racquetball,
shotputting, skydiving, soccer, volleyball, acrobats, wrestling, and
rugby.

Although tea has a reputation as a healthy beverage, it may not be the best choice when it comes to keeping your teeth white. Dentists say tea -- especially the basic black variety -- can cause more stains than coffee. However, recent studies have found that even herbal teas and white teas have the potential to erode enamel and cause tooth staining.
