T<\/span>echnology today is changing our everyday lives, and the field of dentistry is constantly evolving and improving<\/strong> to better serve your needs.\u00a0 With today\u2019s technology, dentists are better equipped to detect and treat tooth decay and perform dental procedures with maximum comfort<\/strong>.\u00a0 Cutting-edge innovations in dental instruments are requiring less time in the dental chair<\/strong>, causing less discomfort and creating satisfying results<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div> O<\/span>ne breakthrough instrument, called CAD\/CAM <\/strong>(Computer Aided Design\/Computer Aided Manufacturing), allows dentists to quickly restore damaged teeth with natural-colored ceramic fillings, saving patients time and inconvenience.<\/p>\n Our CAD\/CAM<\/strong> system incorporates a camera, computer and milling machine in one instrument. We use a special camera to take an accurate picture of your damaged tooth. This optical impression is transferred and displayed on a color computer screen, where we’ll use CAD<\/strong> technology to design the restoration. Then CAM<\/strong> takes over and automatically creates the restoration while you wait. Finally, we bond the new restoration to the surface of the old tooth. The whole process takes about one hour<\/strong>.<\/p>\n A tooth-colored restoration means no more silver fillings<\/strong> discoloring smiles. The filling is natural-looking, compatible with tissue in the mouth, anti-abrasive and plaque-resistant. We no longer need to create temporaries or take impressions and send them to a lab. Because of this, the traditional second visit has been eliminated, which means your damaged tooth can be replaced in one short visit!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\nDigital Dentistry<\/strong><\/h1>
