Advanced Technology for Modern Dental Care
Modern Dental Technology
We believe that investing in modern dental technology helps us provide better care and better outcomes for our patients. These advanced tools allow our team to work more efficiently while improving comfort and accuracy during your visit.
Modern Dentistry Designed for Your Comfort
Automated External Defibrillator (AED)
While we like to laugh and enjoy our work, we know that we must be ready for trouble too. That is why we all maintain current CPR training; keep our emergency kit up to date (and available at a moments notice), and an Automated External Defibrillator AED. An AED will deliver a shock to the heart to allow it to restart in the event of certain cardiac emergencies.
Our AED is mounted right in the Treatment Area hallway for everyone to see and get to if needed.
No one wants to have an emergency… but we are prepared if you do.
Sterilization
CEREC Same Day Restorations
With CEREC technology, we can design, create, and place custom dental crowns in a single visit. This advanced system uses digital impressions and computer-aided design to produce strong, natural-looking crowns without the need for temporary restorations or multiple appointments.
Digital X-Rays
As part of our commitment to modern dental care, Willow Pond Dental utilizes advanced digital radiography to capture clear and detailed images of your teeth and surrounding structures. Our digital imaging systems allow us to view high-quality radiographic images directly on large operatory monitors, helping our team examine even the smallest details and make more accurate diagnoses.
Digital X-rays provide many advantages compared to traditional film X-rays.
Intraoral Camera
They say a picture is worth a thousand words, so we use intraoral photography to evaluate, teach, store, and transmit information to others. Our camera is about the size of a pen and produces images of incredible clarity. This helps us capture images of almost any tooth or tissue surface quickly and easily.
The photos on this website were taken with it!
Navigator Diode Laser
Dentistry is still unable to replace the dreaded drills with lasers, but there are some instances where lasers can really help. We have the Navigator Diode Soft Tissue Laser for these instances. A diode laser is used to treat conditions involving gum tissue with very little anesthesia required. We can treat local gum conditions, without needing to refer to a Periodontist, and some surgical procedures such as frenectomy or removal of fibrous lesions without a surgeon. The Navigator Laser has also proven to be effective in canker sore treatment.
So Star-Trek no … modern dentistry yes
Rotary Endodontic System
The words “you need root canal therapy” usually strike fear into the hearts of people. This fear was born from how things used to be. In years gone by, root canal therapy was usually performed over three separate, long appointments only using hand tools. Each appointment took a long time, and had limited predictable results.
Well, the future is here. We use rotary files with electric motor dental headpieces made specifically for them. This allows us to usually complete the procedure — even on complex molars — during one visit. Rotary files allow us to be very efficient and consistent in our root canal therapy. Now we just have to help keep our patients from falling asleep!
3D Printer
We have recently added 3D Printing to our Technology. Now we can scan your teeth with our CEREC Scanners and Print dental models for diagnoses and planning. Additionally we can Print Retainers, Bite Guards and soon there will be other exciting uses too!
