Advanced Dental Technology – Corte Madera
State-of-the-Art Dental Technology
Dental technology is always changing. New advances push the boundaries of what we’ve been able to do in past years, enabling us as a dental office to provide the best care possible. We use the latest and best dental technologies at Corte Madera Dentist – Madera Dental Julie Young, DDS as part of our goal to provide personalized, one-on-one care at our dental office.
Our use of dental technology also enables us to treat more patients than we normally would. We make it a priority to provide patients with individualized care and to prevent other patients from having to wait a long time for their appointments or checkups. Thanks to the dental technology we use, patients can enjoy a beautiful smile and greater overall oral health as well as the time and attention they deserve.
Soft-Tissue Lasers
Before soft-tissue lasers were created, dentists had to use scalpels and other less precise tools. The advent of soft-tissue lasers made many treatments easier and opened up the possibility of other procedures. Today we use these tools for numerous different services from gum disease treatments to removing soft tissue lesions. Using a soft-tissue laser can help to minimize bleeding, reduce discomfort, lower the risk of infection, and encourage a faster recovery period.
Digital X-Rays
The digital X-rays that we use at our practice can capture several images in a fraction of the time and with significantly less radiation than traditional radiography. Traditional X-rays of the past required heavy-duty protection from distinctly higher levels of radiation, but digital X-rays greatly reduce this risk. They are also much less harmful to the environment.
DIAGNOdent™ for Cavity Detection
With the use of this tool, we can not only detect caries (cavities) in your teeth, but we can also determine the severity of the decay. This helps us to plan highly effective treatments that can halt the damage and restore your smile to health.
Computers in All Operatories
We employ the use of computers in all our operatories, allowing us to keep a digital record of your dental history. This makes it easier to receive and share information with other dentists, specialists, and medical providers when necessary. It also helps us display information, so you can learn more about your oral health.
