Digital X-Rays
Digital X-rays are a safe, fast, and reliable way to see what’s happening beneath the surface of your child’s smile. Using up to 80% less radiation than traditional X-rays, they allow us to detect cavities, track tooth development, and catch potential concerns early. The images are available instantly, so we can share them with you during the appointment and explain treatment options clearly.
Digital Panoramic X-Rays
A digital panoramic X-ray captures your child’s entire mouth in a single image, making it easier for us to evaluate jaw growth, check for developing teeth, and monitor orthodontic needs. This advanced tool helps us see a bigger picture than traditional X-rays while keeping radiation exposure minimal. With a quick and comfortable process, it’s ideal for young patients who may have trouble sitting still for multiple images.
Intraoral Camera
Our intraoral camera makes it simple for parents to see exactly what we see inside their child’s mouth. This small, handheld device captures detailed images of teeth and gums, which we can display on a screen right in the treatment room. It’s a great way to explain dental conditions, show progress over time, and help children feel more engaged in their own care.
Soft-Tissue Laser Therapy
Soft-tissue laser therapy is a gentle, modern solution for treating gum issues and other oral health concerns in children. The laser allows us to perform precise procedures with minimal discomfort, less bleeding, and quicker healing compared to traditional methods. Because it’s so efficient and comfortable, it often reduces the need for anesthesia, making it especially beneficial for young patients and parents looking for stress-free treatment options.
DryShield® Isolation System
The DryShield® Isolation System helps keep your child’s mouth safe and comfortable during dental treatments. Acting as a gentle retractor, suction, and bite block all in one, it protects the airway, keeps the teeth dry, and lets kids rest their jaws while we work. This makes procedures quicker, cleaner, and less stressful for both children and parents, helping little patients feel at ease while receiving the care they need.
