Advanced Technology

At AquaSprings Dental, we use advanced technology to provide high-quality dental care to our patients. A few types of technology we use are intraoral cameras, digital x-rays, soft tissue lasers, and hard tissue lasers.

Intraoral Cameras

Sometimes it is hard to see the fine details with just a tiny mirror. An intraoral camera allows your dentist to look at your teeth in particular. The camera is handheld and easily fits in your mouth. Dentists can recognize hairline cracks in minutes. The camera can even take photos to see your teeth up close.

Digital X-Ray

A digital x-ray is preferred to traditional x-rays because they are safer, quicker, and have better outcomes. Traditional x-rays do have a small amount of radiation emitted when using them. However, digital x-rays do not use radiation to take pictures. Traditional x-rays take a while to process, while digital x-rays show the image captured instantly. Lastly, digital x-rays have more clarity and are a better diagnostic tool.

Digital Scanner

AquaSprings Dental invests in the latest technology to ensure a better patient experience. No more goop, gagging, or discomfort. Using a special intraoral scanner, your orthodontist can take a highly accurate digital impression of your teeth and jaw. The new technology completely eliminates the tray and putty impressions, where the experience is comparable to stuffing a big wad of gum in your mouth. The old technique is incredibly unpleasant and frequently results in taking multiple rounds of impressions that can be rejected, broken, or misplaced. Our scanner ensures a more accurate impression from the start, resulting in improved treatment and a more comfortable patient experience. Digital impressions also give you the ability to see your teeth instantly in 3D, improving communication during the consultation and treatment process.

Soft and Hard Tissue Laser

The dentists at AquaSprings Dental utilize soft tissue lasers to provide better oral health treatments. Lasers take the place of traditional oral surgery that requires scalpels and sutures. With laser technology, the laser cuts and cauterizes while reducing the amount of bleeding and potential infection. Additionally, laser technology decreases the need for anesthesia and numbing medication. Procedures using lasers are more comfortable and more accurate.
