DENTAL TECHNOLOGY Smile Imaging This computer software system allows our team to show you what your smile is going to look like before treatment. We can show you the possibilities. The 'electronic treatment' is completed on the computer. See how the amazing process of smile enhancement could change your perspective. This step is comfortable and informal. Why not find out what's possible? Jaw Simulator This technology has helped us better determine how teeth should be restored. Years of wear and decay can create significant bite and function problems. We use the jaw simulator pictured above along with three-dimensional models of your restored smile to show you and us how the function and bite will be enhanced through the restorative treatments we have recommended. Patients can develop painful joint concerns and chipping and cracking problems when teeth are mismatched. Without creating equilibrium or 'evenness,' a new smile can be short lived. Therefore, we take a whole-smile health view. Be assured that we will develop a comprehensive blueprint for your new smile.
Intraoral Camera Exams Technology gives patients and dentists, like Dr. Flax, who choose to use it many advantages. Deciding on what will best accomplish your goals can be daunting. The intraoral camera provides the kind of evidence you need to make an informed decision. Besides our written documentation and conversations, we can now add visual evidence to your resources for determining the care that is best for you. The intraoral camera, about the size of a pen, lets you see up-close exactly how your smile looks, and the condition of your teeth, on a television screen. Dr. Flax also increases his diagnostic capabilities using this camera that provides 30x magnification. He can now see smaller cracks and possible decay that might have gone unnoticed in years past.
