Ultrasonic Cleaning
. |
The cavitron is an ultrasonic scaler.
Power scalers do a more thorough job in less time.
This results in significantly decreased scaling
time and healthier, cleaner teeth and gums. Hand
scalers require repetitive scraping movements
and are restricted to adaptation of only one or
two sides of the instrument. In comparison, all
four sides of a power scaler can be adapted, because
the device moves in an elliptical motion. This
comes in handy when removing stain and deposits
from behind and between the teeth. Ultrasonic
scalers are more effective in removing stain as
well. The ultrasonic vibration helps control oral
bacteria by breaking down the cell wall of the
bacteria. The water used to cool the cavitron
then helps to rinse away bacteria, stain and debris |
Prophy Jet
An advanced air polishing cleaning technology which
uses air/water/sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) to
gently remove stains and dental plaque while at the
same time polishing the teeth.

3M ESPE Mini Implants
Is your loose denture causing you to miss out on life's simple pleasures? Do you miss eating your favorite foods? Are you afraid to laugh or smile? If so it is time to enhance your life with the Mini Denture Implant (MDI) system by 3M ESPE.
The MDI system consists of a miniature titanium alloy implant that acts like the root of your tooth and a retaining fixture that is incorporated into the base of your denture. The head of the implant is shaped like a ball, and the retaining fixture acts like a socket with a rubber O-ring. The O-ring snaps over the ball when the denture is seated and holds the denture firmly in place. When seated, the denture gently rests on the gum tissue. The implant fixtures allow for micro-mobility while withstanding natural lifting forces.
Come and visit us in the morning to have the mini implants placed, and be able to eat dinner that evening comfortably with this scientific breakthrough in denture stabilization. All of this is available at an extremely affordable price and interest free financing is available for those who qualify.
Whitening
KoR Whitening
(Deep Bleaching System)
|
If you are searching for a beautiful, healthy, and natural looking white smile, KoR Whitening is the answer. This safe and comfortable process offers low to no sensitivity and the results are permanent, with easy periodic home maintenance. There is no need to give up coffee, tea, or red wine. The system is ideal no matter what your age.
Kor Whitening is by far the most reliable and effective whitening system ever developed. In fact, it is so effective it is the only recognized whitening system that whitens even tetracycline-stained teeth in a short time (previously thought to be impossible).
The KoR Whitening System works by restoring your teeth's ability to absorb oxygen. The oxygen from its whitening gel is absorbed deeply into the tooth, dissolving the stain molecules. Teeth are often dramatically lightened, often 16 shades or more.
Molds of your teeth will be made to fabricate your own unique, ultra comfortable whitening trays. You and your dentist will select which level of whitening is the proper fit for you. You will normally wear your trays at home for two weeks while you sleep. Depending on your selection, you may also have one or two simple whitening visits in the office.
