Where Technology

Enhances Comfort.

Cornerstone Dental uses advanced dental technology, skill and experience to define how we care for each patient.

Advanced Technology for Expert Dental Care

When Cornerstone Dental acquired the assets of a retiring dentist, many of the dental chairs and dental equipment did not convey with today’s modern standards and were removed, providing an opportunity to freshen the office and bring the equipment and technology up to date.

Digital X-Ray Sensors

Crystal clear X-ray images instantly appear on the monitor offering several benefits:

• Patients’ radiation exposure is up to 75% less with digital sensors (compared to film as previously offered by Dr. J. Gibson).
• The clarity of digital X-rays aids in early diagnoses of subtle disease. (Minor cavities may be detected quicker and managed before more extensive and expensive decay occurs).
• Because X-ray images can be enlarged on the monitor, patients can see and better understand their oral health.
• Patients no longer must endure long delays waiting for X-ray films to develop.

 

Laser

Some patients with ‘crowns’ remember the dentist having difficulty ‘packing cord’ around the tooth and gum, which must be done to get a ‘good’ impression.  These patients will understand the value of our Sirolaser which efficiently creates the needed margins while minimizing swelling and bleeding.

Additionally, this laser can be used in the treatment of periodontal disease (a major cause of tooth loss). Used on low settings, the laser is inserted into the gingival pocket and activated to destroy harmful bacteria allowing gum tissue to reattach to the tooth.

 

Hygiene Appointments and the Cavitron Ultrasonic Scaler

The Cavitron removes plaque and stains using water pressure and air polish.  The Cavitron is efficient, gentle and reduces scraping.  Clean teeth are noticeable and patient comfort is enhanced.

Intra Oral Cameras

A picture is worth a thousand words, especially when an image makes it obvious what your dentist or hygienist is talking about.

Our intra-oral cameras allow you to see your teeth on the monitor from a variety of angles, giving you a better understanding of what is being discussed.

Sirona Orthophos SL 3D-Ai (much more than a PANOREX)

Our Orthophos provides the familiar digital 2 dimensional panoramic view of the mouth, however, its capability to provide a 3 dimensional ‘Cone Beam’ scan is truly a diagnostic game changer.

When a dentist is evaluating a patient’s tooth for an endodontic (root canal) procedure, the 3-D Cone Beam image greatly aids in the search for fractures providing added assurance that the tooth is viable and treatment warranted.  Also of significance is the unique capability of the 3-D scan to image the number of canals in each tooth, thus reducing the uncertainty of ‘missing’ a canal which could result in root canal re-treatment.
