Advances in dental technology mean that oral health problems can now be identified earlier and treated easier. That’s why the team at Greenwood Park Dentistry has invested in new dental technologies that provide our patients with the most comfortable, efficient assessment and treatment experience possible.

Here are some examples of digital dentistry to discuss with your dentist in Kingston.

Cerec

Cerec allows Dr. Tabesh to create dental restorations conveniently at the office and without having to wait for the dental lab. This means faster restorations that can often be fitted and installed in a single visit.

Intraoral Camera

This camera is exactly what it sounds like – it goes into your mouth to take photos of the teeth and gums, and the images can be shown on a screen in real-time, allowing the patient to share the same view of the dental healthcare professional administering the procedure. The images can be magnified up to 20X, making any issue or imperfection visible and clear.

Digital Radiography

Digital Radiography provides the same service as a traditional x-ray, but it is faster and uses 50 per cent less radiation. Digital radiography allows dental healthcare professionals to create instant imagery, allowing for more efficient assessment and diagnosis than is possible using traditional x-rays.

Soft Tissue Laser

This laser makes the process of getting dental implants, gingivectomy, cold sore treatments and Invisalign easier, faster, and more comfortable. By using a highly focused laser that can manipulate the soft tissues in the mouth, these instruments allow our team at Greenwood Park Dentistry to perform procedures less invasively with better accuracy and reduced healing times.

Velscope VX

This cancer screening device can be used by your dentist in Kingston to quickly and painlessly examine any abnormalities found in the mouth to help identify potentially life-threatening conditions like oral cancer early, while it is still easily treatable. A Velscope examination only takes about two minutes and it could potentially save a patient’s life.
