3D Cone Beam Imaging
Our practice features state-of-the-art, full-cranial cone beam CT (computed tomography) technology, which produces highly accurate 3D radiographic images. We utilize this technology not only as a diagnostic tool, but also in planning and treatment of:
- Oral and orthognathic surgery

- Implantology
- TMJ disorders
- Airway assessment
- Other dental procedures
Waterlase
Waterlase is a safe and gentle alternative to traditional dental tools. Using laser and water spray, Waterlase can perform many procedures without a shot or a drill. This laser enables our doctors to use minimal and even no anesthetic to perform many routine dental procedures.

To ensure a maximum accuracy on special treatments, our practice offers dental microscope. High magnification visuals in dentistry (via a dental operating microscope) has been well known for years in endodontics, periodontics and restorative dentistry.
