Our Technology & Comfort

You spend less time waiting and receive far less radiation, up to 90% less than older film X-rays. Because the images appear on a screen right beside your chair within seconds, you and Dr. Willis can look at them together and catch small problems like a cavity or early bone loss while they are still simple to treat. You are never left wondering what is going on in your own mouth.

If you have ever wished you could actually see what your dentist sees, now you can. This pen-sized camera puts a clear, magnified picture of your teeth and gums on the screen, so you understand exactly why a treatment is recommended. Many patients tell us that seeing it for themselves makes the decision feel like theirs, not something handed down to them.

You can say goodbye to the messy, gag-inducing trays of putty. Instead, a small wand gently scans your teeth in a few minutes to build a precise 3D model. That model is the starting point for a crown, which is a cap that fits over a damaged tooth, or for bridges and clear aligners. Because the scan is more accurate than an old-fashioned mold, your restoration fits better the first time and you make fewer trips back for adjustments.

When your treatment involves the gums, a dental laser lets us work with more precision and a gentler touch than older methods. Whether you are treating gum disease, an infection along the gumline, or reshaping your gums for a more even smile, the laser often means no stitches and a quicker, more comfortable recovery, so you can get back to your day sooner.

You make the best decisions about your care when you can actually see what is being explained. That is why a screen in every treatment room shows you your X-rays, close-up photos, and simple animations of what is happening and what your options are. Even the more involved procedures become easy to follow, so you always leave knowing exactly what to expect.
