High Technology Dentistry
Technological advances in dentistry and dental equipment, allow us to offer our patients careful, conservative treatment with earlier detection of problems. It also helps us preserve more natural tooth than ever before. We use Intra-Oral cameras, for instance because they enhance patient comfort and allow us to see clearly and show the patient exactly what we are seeing in bright, bold color. The Intra-Oral camera is a tiny video camera designed to pick up images inside your mouth and magnify them to e viewed on a monitor. The intra-oral camera allows us to offer more precise, simple, conservation-focused procedures that particularly benefit our patients. With the intra-oral camera, we can show a patient’s cavity, broken filling, broken tooth, bad crown, or gingival problem in a much clearer manner. The images can be viewed on a screen allowing the patient review the case with Dr. Galfund.
Digital X-rays - Dr. Galfund uses digital dental X-Rays to provide even better dental care and more accurate diagnoses. The process of digitally capturing an image is much faster, safer and more comfortable for the patient. The digital dental X-ray system is more sensitive than dental X-ray film systems, so your exposure to X-rays is cut by as much as 90 percent. The large, color-enhanced images let you see what Dr. Galfund sees, so it's easier for you to understand how your dentist will treat your teeth.
