Our Dental Services
CD and DVD Players
You can watch a DVD or listen to a CD during your appointment! These play through our in-operatory computers, positioned so you can see them while having the treatment done. We have an office collection; however, you are welcome to bring your favourites as well! Kids love this option and are often disappointed when the appointment is finished—they want to watch the end of the movie!
Rotary Endodontics
Nobody likes the idea of having a root canal. But with air-driven rotary equipment (as opposed to hand-driven), root canals are completed faster and with less post-treatment discomfort.
CBCT Scanner
Before any dental treatment begins, having a complete understanding of your oral health can make a significant difference in the outcome. While traditional dental X-rays provide valuable information, a CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) scan creates a detailed, three-dimensional view of your teeth, jawbone, nerves, and surrounding anatomy. This advanced level of imaging allows your dentist to diagnose conditions more accurately, plan treatment with greater precision, and perform procedures with added confidence. Rather than ordering unnecessary tests, CBCT technology helps ensure your care is carefully tailored for safety, accuracy, and the best possible results.
CBCT technology supports a wide range of dental treatments and diagnoses, including:
-
Dental Implants: Produces detailed 3D images of the jawbone, allowing your dentist to evaluate bone volume and quality, identify the location of important nerves and sinuses, and plan implant placement with exceptional accuracy.
-
Oral Surgery: Helps guide the removal of impacted teeth, including wisdom teeth, while providing a clear view of the surrounding anatomy. CBCT imaging can also aid in identifying cysts, fractures, and other abnormalities affecting the jaws.
-
Root Canal Treatment: Reveals intricate root canal anatomy that may not be visible on traditional X-rays, making it easier to locate additional canals, identify infections, and diagnose complex dental conditions.
-
TMJ Evaluation: Provides detailed images of the temporomandibular joints (TMJ), helping your dentist assess joint structure and identify changes that may be contributing to jaw pain, clicking, or temporomandibular disorders (TMD).

Many people have had previous negative dental experiences, making them afraid to seek treatment. We have a wide range of options to help make your appointment more comfortable:
IV sedation can also be used for medically compromised patients and those who have physical issues that impede dental care, such as a strong gag reflex. Please contact us to learn if IV sedation is the right choice for you!
Special Care for Anxious, Medically Compromised or Physically Challenged Patients
Digital X-rays
Using new digital technology, we can reduce radiation exposure in our office and no longer need any messy developing chemicals. The radiographic images are projected onto computer monitors attached to our dental chairs, where we can enlarge them to allow you to see what, in the past, was only visible to the dentist. Patients appreciate that with this technology, they can understand precisely why a particular procedure is recommended.
Intraoral Cameras
We have digital intraoral cameras that allow us to take pictures of anything in your mouth and project it onto the computer screen. These images allow you to see what we see and so allow you to understand the need for treatment better. It also gives us additional evidence to relay to the insurance company to gain predetermination acceptance for treatment.
