Our office uses modern, state-of-the-art technology to enhance patient comfort
and to help you get the smile you deserve!


Computer Digital Radiography (CDR)

Digital x-rays can now be taken using sensors that transmit the image directly into a computer monitor. This larger image helps the patient understand the doctor's explanations more easily and enables the doctor to "zoom in" on a specific area of the tooth. An important advantage to this new technology is that it reduces the amount of radiation by 90%. Digital x-rays are also faster. The digital image only takes a minute or two to appear in the monitor. In addition, this new technology is friendly to the environment since no chemicals are needed for developing the image. digital xray

Dental Imaging Software

Dental imaging software allows us to simulate cosmetic and other procedures so you can see the effect on your smile before we start! We take digital pictures of your teeth and then use a sophisticated computer simulation program to create the projected "after" images.

Imaging Software

DIAGNOdent

The DIAGNOdent is a high tech laser system of detecting cavities on the chewing surface of your teeth at the earliest stage possible. It uses a laser light to detect changes in your tooth structure (or decay). When the laser light detects a surface that reads differently than the healthy baseline value a number is displayed on a screen. This light is measured by receptors and reveals a value between one and 100. A reading of 10-20 indicates some enamel softening, pointing to a potential problem area that is monitored. A reading of 21-100 indicates a definite area of decay requiring a filling. Also, by using light energy, there's no x-ray exposure thus no danger posed to the patient or dentist. It helps us to detect the invisible!

Laser

CDB CO2 Laser

We have been using lasers in our office since 1992. In 2005 we invested in a CO2 laser system because it offered substantial benefits to our patients requiring soft tissue dental procedures. Laser Denistry is more efficient and more comfortable than the conventional methods of treating periodontal and gum disease. Traditionally, periodontal disease has been treated by extensive gum surgery but now most cases can be treated non-surgically with the use of the dental laser. Fortunately, we are one of the few dentists in Nebraska to be able to offer our patients this kind of care.
