From 3D digital imaging to laser dentistry, we use modernized tools in your practice to make your visit more comfortable and efficient.
In this guide, we will explore all the different technologies that help us transform your experience.
Technology has not only revolutionized the treatment process by making it more accurate and enhancing comfort, but it has also reduced recovery times. Here’s a closer look at how advanced dental technology in Frisco, TX, helps patients like yours:
Let’s discuss some of the key modern technologies that we use in our clinic-
They have replaced the old-fashioned film-based imaging with advanced digital sensors. They provide instant, high-resolution images while reducing radiation exposure by up to 90%.
At Dental Care of Frisco, our dentist will use digital X-rays to –
It is a low-dose 3D X-ray that shows the teeth, roots, bone volume, nerve pathways, and sinus anatomy in three dimensions.
It plays a crucial role in the following dental procedures:
It is superior to traditional 2D X-rays, as it reveals structures that 2D X-ray scans often miss, thereby reducing surgical surprises.
It is a wand-style scanner that captures a 3D model of your teeth and soft tissue. So, no more goopy impression trays that were previously used to create impressions.
It is mostly used by our professionals for preparing crowns, bridges, implant prosthetics, and aligner workflows.
This technology helps dentists with all treatment procedures that require taking exact anatomical features of the jawbone and teeth for making customizations.
It is advanced as its precise placement improves aesthetics, function, and ensures long-term success.
These are small, pen-sized cameras that capture high-definition images of every corner of your mouth. As the images display on a screen, your dentist can get a real-time view of your teeth. It can help detect cavities, plaque buildup, cracked fillings, and other dental issues.
Using this advanced technology, you can even spot the exact problem areas. This will later serve as a document of progress before and after the treatment procedure. Lastly, our dentists maintain absolute transparency about the treatment procedure for you.
Statistics have revealed that nearly half of the adults over the age of 30 are suffering from some form of gum disease or periodontitis. Laser therapy offers a powerful, minimally invasive solution.
Our dentist uses soft-tissue lasers to safely remove bacterial growth and infected tissue in your mouth. This approach helps promote faster healing than the traditional method of treatment, which involves invasive surgery. The laser also seals the blood vessels along with removal, so you bleed less. Lastly, it also stimulates tissue regeneration, thereby reducing recovery time.
At Dental Care of Frisco, we combine dental laser treatment with ultrasonic scaling to restore your gum health without the need for scalpels or stitches.
During professional cleaning, our hygienist nowadays uses ultrasonic scaling technology to remove plaque and tartar efficiently.
Ultrasonic scalars vibrate at high frequency, thereby breaking down the hardened deposits of plaque while spraying a cooling mist that washes them away and cleans your teeth.
This technique helps reduce treatment time and cleans more efficiently and deeply than manual tools.
A deeper clean that feels lighter and faster, your gums will thank you!
The sound or vibration makes most of our patients anxious, and air abrasion has been a game-changer. This technology uses a fine stream of air, which is mixed with microscopic particles that help remove decay. This ensures a painless procedure for our patients with minimal removal of healthy tooth structure.
Air abrasion is used by our dentists for:
CAD stands for Computer-Aided Design, and CAM stands for Computer-Aided Manufacturing technology.
The traditional method of obtaining dental crowns typically involves multiple visits, messy impressions, temporary fittings, and lengthy wait times.
At Dental Care of Frisco, our dentists have begun using advanced CAD/CAM technology to eliminate this hassle.
Here’s how it works-
This technology has freed the patients from gooey impressions, temporary crowns, and most importantly, waiting weeks for a lab.
Now you can walk into our clinic with a damaged tooth and walk out with a perfect crown, all in one visit.
At Dental Care of Frisco, we prioritize patient comfort by utilizing modern technology. Let’s talk about more details of it.
