Cerec
Cerec by Sirona Dental Systems is the world's only system for the fabrication of
all ceramic dental restorations in one office visit. With Cerec, a person can be
in and out in a single visit with a permanent, all ceramic crown, onlay, or veneer.
For the patient, this means fewer injections, less drilling, and less time out of
a busy schedule for dental care.

Digital X-Rays
Emitting one tenth of the radiation of conventional X-ray systems, the digital X-ray
system is a huge benefit to patients and the environment with the elimination of
film and developing solutions. Digital X-rays systems provide images which are high
quality and almost instant.
Diagnodent
This amazing technology is a major advance in detecting dental decay in the early
stages. A small laser beam determines the density of the tooth which tells the dentist
or hygienist if decay is present.
Air Abrasion
This technology utilizes an intense stream of air with an abrasive agent in it which
can remove small areas of decay without any drilling or anesthic. It works hand-in-hand
with the Diagnodent in being able to treat problems early with as little trauma
as possible.
Oral Sedation
