Do You Find Technology Helpful In Your Daily Life?
Do you find technology helpful in your daily life? To all of us the answer to that question would be, of course! Technology in the world around us is always evolving and changing, adding enhancements to our lives that we never knew we needed. For example, if someone would have told you a year ago how dependent we would be on Zoom, Google Meet, and Facetime, would you have believed them? We rely on these technological advancements for everything from work and school to seeing family and friends, and even how many of us celebrated the recent holidays. Dental care is also always evolving and changing due to the additions of modern technology. Interested in learning what technology we offer in our office and how it can benefit your experience?

Like other aspects of your life, the technology used in our office is changing the way we are able to offer our services. Modern advancements are helping our staff improve and change the way dental cleanings are performed, how illnesses are prevented, how oral diseases are diagnosed, and the level of safety we are able to provide for all.
There are a number of technologies we employ in our office that offer real benefit to our patients. Here are a few examples:
- Digital Dental Impressions – Say goodbye to the putty material that was used in the past for impressions and enjoy the pictures taken of your teeth by a special camera, which are transformed into 3D images.
- Digital X-Rays – These are beneficial as there is no wait time for the images to develop and the images are much clearer and can be enhanced to show further details.
- Intraoral Camera – A tiny camera is used to give a chair-side view of what the dentist is seeing in your mouth. This is helpful in showing problem areas and demonstrating which treatment will be beneficial.
- Extraoral Suction Machine – If safety is your main concern, this machine is used during treatment to remove any and all droplets and aerosol vapors from the air.
If you are located in the Burton, MI area and are interested in learning more about the technology offered in our practice and the ways it could benefit your treatment, please contact us today to schedule a consultation. We look forward to seeing you in our office soon!
