Advanced Technology
Precision Dentistry
When you seek care at our office, you are assured that Dr. Harris, Dr. Saleemuddin, and their staff utilize the latest in technology to enhance the quality and fit for your dental care.
Digital Imaging
Drs. Harris or Saleemuddin chooses carefully which and when radiographs are taken. There are many guidelines that we follow. Radiographs allow us to see everything we cannot see with our own eyes. Radiographs enable us to detect cavities in between your teeth, determine bone level, and analyze the health of your bone. We can also examine the roots and nerves of teeth, diagnose lesions such as cysts or tumors, as well as assess damage when trauma occurs.
Dental radiographs are invaluable aids in diagnosing, treating, and maintaining dental health. Exposure time for dental radiographs is extremely minimal. Drs. Harris and Saleemuddin utilize Digital Imaging Technologies within the office. With digital imaging, exposure time is about 50 percent less when compared to traditional radiographs. Digital imaging can also help us acquire valuable diagnostic information.
Digital imaging allows us to store patient images and enables us to quickly and easily transfer them to specialists or insurance companies.
Digital X-Rays
Digital X-rays offer more precision since we view the image on a computer monitor, instead of holding up a 35mm film up to the light. Digital X-rays results in 1/6th the radiation exposure to you.
Intraoral Camera
Many patients, especially younger patients, are very familiar with the latest technology and are comfortable with it. Computers are their primary method of information processing.
Drs. Harris and Saleemuddin utilize Intraoral Camera technology that helps enhance your understanding of your diagnosis. An Intraoral Camera is a very small camera that fits comfortably in the oral cavity and allows the Dentist, Hygienist, and you to view clear, precise images of your mouth, teeth and gums. With clear, defined, enlarged images, more details can be seen than by looking with the naked eye. This can mean a faster and more accurate diagnosis.
Intraoral cameras also enable our practice to save your images in our office computer as part of you record of treatments. These images can be printed for you, other specialists, the lab, or insurance companies.
