We’ll even tell you about the advanced dental technology that our Boynton Beach dental office has added over the years, so please keep reading!
Nitrous Oxide Sedation Dentistry
We often recommend nitrous oxide sedation dentistry for patients who need help staying calm. By applying nitrous oxide through a nose mask, it gives you a relaxed feeling while you stay in the dentist’s chair. The result is that you won’t feel nervous or stressed during treatment, ensuring your care goes smoothly. Better yet, the sedation’s effects are short-lived; you’ll be back to normal just minutes after the nose mask is removed. That means you can drive back home (or to work) when the visit is over.
Digital Dental Impressions
While many dentists use dental putty to capture dental impressions, this method has drawbacks. The biggest one is that it produces less-than-accurate models of a patient’s mouth. With that said, our practice avoids this pitfall by using digital impressions. We rely on a handheld device to scan your teeth and gums, getting a 3D image of your mouth as a result. A dental lab can then use this image to fabricate custom restorations for your smile.
Intraoral Cameras
Our office uses intraoral cameras to ensure you get a high-quality oral exam. These devices take clear pictures of your smile, displaying them on a chairside screen in real-time. These effects allow our dentists to pinpoint smaller areas of decay and better educate our patients. To be more specific, they help you grasp the state of your mouth and how best to care for it.
