Our Advanced Dental Technology

Digital X-Rays

Traditional film X-rays have become a thing of the past. We use low-radiation digital X-rays to capture high-resolution images of your teeth, roots, and jaw with less exposure and faster processing.

Benefits of digital radiography include:

  • Up to 90% less radiation than film
  • Immediate image availability for real-time diagnosis
  • Enhanced visibility for early detection of decay and bone loss
  • Easy sharing and storage for long-term dental records

We incorporate digital imaging into every routine exam and treatment plan for clear, confident care.

Panoramic X-Rays

A panoramic X-ray provides a complete view of your entire mouth in one image — including teeth, upper and lower jaws, sinuses, and surrounding bone structure. This technology is especially helpful for:

  • Evaluating wisdom teeth
  • Diagnosing TMJ or jaw issues
  • Planning oral surgery
  • Identifying cysts, tumors, or bone abnormalities

Because it captures the full arch without intraoral sensors, panoramic imaging is quick and comfortable, even for children or patients with strong gag reflexes.

Intraoral Camera

Our high-definition intraoral camera allows us to show you exactly what we see during your exam — on a screen, in real time. This small handheld camera captures crisp images of your teeth, gums, and any areas of concern.

Intraoral imaging helps with:

  • Patient education and transparency
  • Documenting cracked fillings, gum recession, or early decay
  • Visualizing hard-to-see areas without discomfort
  • Tracking changes over time

It’s an especially useful tool during children’s dentistry appointments, helping kids and parents better understand oral health needs.

iTero Digital Impressions

Say goodbye to messy impression trays. We use the iTero scanner to take fast, precise digital impressions of your teeth — ideal for creating crowns, bridges, and orthodontic appliances without the discomfort.

Benefits of iTero digital impressions:

We also use digital scanning to plan restorative work such as dentures, implant-supported prosthetics, and custom mouthguards.

Nomad Handheld X-Ray System

The Nomad X-ray device is a portable, handheld unit that allows for greater flexibility and convenience during imaging — especially helpful when treating children, seniors, or patients with limited mobility.

Nomad technology offers:

  • Quick intraoral X-rays without repositioning the patient
  • Comfortable imaging for pediatric and emergency cases
  • Enhanced safety through shielded design
  • Faster diagnosis during emergency dental visits

It’s just one more way we make dental care more accessible, efficient, and patient-friendly.

Answer text goes here

Is digital imaging safe?

Yes. Our digital X-rays and panoramic scans use significantly less radiation than traditional film — making them safe even for children and expectant mothers in most cases.

Will I still need traditional impressions for crowns or braces?

No. With our iTero digital scanner, we can take fast, clean impressions for same-day crowns, braces, Invisalign, and more — all without the discomfort of traditional trays.

How does an intraoral camera help me?

It allows you to see exactly what the dentist sees, so you can better understand your oral health. It also helps us document and track changes over time.

What makes the Nomad X-ray system different?

Unlike traditional wall-mounted units, the Nomad is handheld and portable — offering greater flexibility, faster imaging, and improved comfort for all patients.

Do these tools replace regular exams?

No. Dental technology enhances your visit but doesn’t replace the importance of a thorough clinical exam. Technology is a tool — your dentist’s expertise and your commitment to care are what make the difference.
