Dental Technology When it comes to dental care, the last thing a patient wants is to see a dentist use technologies that send us back in time. Dental care is evolving and so is the technology used. Patients want to have accurate diagnoses, reduced wait time for diagnosis results, effective treatment, and speedy recovery with no complications. Modern dental technologies help enhance dental care provision. At Bergman Family Dental, we have the necessary expertise and have invested in modern technological advances to ensure comprehensive and efficient diagnoses and treatments. Our dentist in Ballwin, MO will apply these technologies to deliver comprehensive and comfortable treatment to all our patients, whether they are adults, kids, or teens. Digital X-RaysSince our practice is committed to offering you safe and convenient treatment, we use advanced digital x-rays in our dental office. These computer-aided x-rays help deliver advanced imaging to save time in the diagnosis of dental issues. The dental photos the x-rays deliver are clearer and they expose patients to less radiation. Digital x-rays provide 3D images of the entire jaw and skull in addition to the teeth and gums. Intraoral CameraWhile x-rays offer crucial information, they may not give a complete detailed view of all things happening in the mouth. Intraoral cameras are able to see all aspects of your teeth and mouth, providing incredible details. These digital cameras can uncover cracked teeth, cavities next to fillings, plaque deposits, excessive wear, and other issues that may not easily be captured with regular x-rays. As such, you are able to make an educated decision concerning your treatment options because you understand the condition of your teeth. You can see the images or results displayed on a screen. Advanced Oral Cancer ScreeningWe utilize modern oral cancer screening instruments that can provide both visual and touch inspections during an oral exam. Our oral cancer screening technology uses a special light that allows our dentist to identify soft tissue anomalies. The exams also take a few minutes and they don't cause any intrusion or discomfort. The instrument is able to deliver exam results of the cheeks, teeth, tongue, and surrounding areas. Panoramic Dental X-RayA panoramic x-ray is a type of x-ray that can capture the entire mouth with just a single image. Our dentist employs panoramic x-rays to help create entire images including all of the teeth, upper and lower jaw, temporomandibular joint, and even the sinuses and nasal areas. With these x-rays, we are able to detect oral concerns such as fractures, bone abnormalities, impacted teeth, cysts, abscesses, decay, and infections. Onsite Mill for CrownsWe also have an on-site mill for crowns that ensures case-control and accuracy in the design and fabrication of dental restorations. Milling in-house allows us to meet the needs of our patients by offering accurate and customized dental restorations. Additionally, onsite milling helps reduce the time of designing and fabricating dental restorations such as crowns, veneers, inlays and onlays, and bridges. This translates to reduced treatment time.
