Digital X-Rays

Digital radiography has revolutionized diagnostic tools in dentistry by providing clear scans of a patient's jawbone, teeth, and other supportive features. These scans enable us to assess current oral health and existing dental restorations, facilitating discussions about ongoing care with patients. In contrast, traditional X-rays were time-consuming to develop and produced lower-quality images. With digital X-rays, our dental team can now achieve greater accuracy and precision in preparing for future treatments.

Joint Vibration Analysis

Joint Vibration Analysis (JVA) is a computerized technology used to record and identify vibrations in your joints, specifically the Temporomandibular Joints (TMJ) in your jaw. This test helps assess patients with Temporomandibular Disorders (TMD) symptoms and monitors the condition of TMD sufferers. JVA is a simple and quick test that involves using a headset with accelerometers, an amplifier connected to a computer, and specialized JVA software.

ConeBeam 3D Imaging

Traditional x-rays use radiation waves to capture 2D images of small body areas, including specific sections of the smile for dentists. On the other hand, 3D computed tomography (CT) scans provide clearer images of oral and facial structures, allowing us to understand their overall function. Unlike flat images of a tooth, CT scans enable us to rotate a 3D image of a damaged tooth, examining every facet. This capability extends beyond individual teeth, as CT scans allow us to visualize every aspect of the full smile.

MLS Laser

Multi-wave Locked System (MLS) laser therapy is an excellent solution for individuals who suffer from excessive jaw or craniofacial pain. If you clench or grind your teeth, suspect sleep apnea, or have TMJ disorder, considering MLS laser treatment can greatly benefit your craniofacial pain and overall oral health.
