Advanced Dental Technology Ellington

Soft Tissue Laser

Instead of having to rely on traditional tools, our doctors can use a state-of-the-art soft tissue laser that enables them to cut and sterilize oral tissue in a much more precise way. Our soft tissue laser can also be used for:

• Cosmetic recontouring of the gumline
• Exposing healthy tooth structure for more successful restorative work/impressions

• Removing a piece of oral tissue for biopsy
• Frenectomies

Galileos 3D Cone Beam Imaging

3D imaging moves a big step beyond the traditional 2D X-rays that are already a vital part of dental diagnosis, creating a comprehensive understanding of your teeth and related facial structures from every possible angle. The Galileos technology generates the image in just seconds, providing exceptionally high resolutions with the lowest level of radiation possible for added patient safety. The information it provides will eliminate the guesswork as we plan your dental implant surgical placement or endodontic (root canal) procedure. By understanding where the sinuses, delicate nerve endings, and important areas are, our doctors can ensure precise and safe care.

CEREC® Same-Day Dentistry

Instead of having to attend multiple appointments to receive a new, custom dental crown or other restoration, patients can have their work completed in record time with state-of-the-art CEREC technology. Our doctors can complete every step of this important process – from gathering impressions to designing the finished product to the final placement – right here in-house, which gives us more control when it comes to ensuring that the size, color, and fit are ideal for your unique smile. CEREC offers patients several great benefits, including the elimination of traditionally “goopy” impression materials and uncomfortable temporary restorations. We have invested in the most accurate and advanced equipment to make outstanding crowns with ease.

All-Digital X-Rays

Digital X-rays provide significant improvements over the traditional film model, including eliminating slow darkroom development and greatly reducing potentially unsafe radiation exposure. There’s virtually no waiting involved – the photos are instantly uploaded to our computer system once they’re captured, and patients and doctors can view the results together. If your chosen insurance company or an outside doctor needs the information, transfers are simple and fast as well.

Intraoral Cameras

Intraoral cameras help our patients become much more involved in the planning of their dental treatment from the very beginning. Up on the screen, patients can see the reality of their teeth and oral tissues firsthand, and our doctors can more clearly explain areas of damage and the results of recommended care.
