High-Tech Dental Solutions That Eliminate Dental Pain and Fear

40 Million Americans avoid going to the dentist because of fear and anxiety, according to the Academy of General Dentistry. People are scared because they don’t have enough information. Holistic knowledge for accurately diagnosing the problem is the first step to overcoming any dental fear or anxiety. The second step then becomes empowering yourself with the best holistic, minimalistic and yet high tech solution that can be executed in the quickest and most efficient way.

Over the past 30 years Robotic 3D technology has made way into dentistry. Gone are the days where a mere thought of completing a major dental procedure like crown in 2-5 hour multiple visits gave chills. Instead today, 3D technology allows us to complete all ceramic holistic crowns in matter of 2-3 hours in one single visit.

Below are five advances made in dentistry over past 30 years to eliminate pain and fear in patients.

3D Computerized

Dental Impressions.

The magic of no more messy gooey gagging impression materials sitting inside the mouth is priceless. Today with 3D digital cameras, dental molds and measurements can be taken in less than 30 seconds with no gagging. The measurements are wirelessly then communicated to in-office 3D milling machine or directly to other high tech dental labs. Such 3D impressions are sent to labs anywhere from California to Germany in matter of a few seconds. Best of all you as a patient can see the 3D mold of your own mouth right on the computer screen. Patients sit in awe rather than any fear when they see their mouth molds zoomed in 3D.

3D Computer Assisted Milling Of Dental Crowns, Implant Abutments And Surgical Stents.

The 3D designs of crowns, implant abutments or surgical stents are milled in less than 4-10 minutes right in front of your eyes. Crown and abutment material used is usually pure ceramic which makes it holistically metal free. Patients love to see their own crowns or abutments made start to finish right in front of their eyes. The end product is micro-precise by multiple folds as compared to any human made crown.

3D Computerized 360 Diagnostics

Ninety-eight percent of dentists even today use 2D X-rays in office to diagnose any dental problems. However those dentists who do have the 3D computerized 360-degree diagnostic machines can show you the magic of being able to accurately knowing where exactly the problem is without any guess work. Most patients instantly achieve peace of mind and the fear of unknown literally disappears when they see how precise this technology is.

Soft Tissue Laser Dentistry

Lasers are being used more often in dentistry now. Earlier many of the soft tissue procedures were done surgically and use to take extra appointments with waiting time before completing dental procedures. Lasers now give dentists an edge to manage any dental tissue without any bleeding or messy pain in the same first visit. Post laser healing is beautiful as if the tissue got a bacterial detox. Hence, not only the patient saves multiple visits to dentist but also the procedures are bloodless and clean healers.

Six Months Super-Speed Braces

New Nickel-Titanium wires allow six-month braces certified dentist to apply light yet continuous pressure on teeth, which in turn allows teeth to move continuously. Case selection becomes critical for six-month braces but when eligible the results are quick and efficient with far fewer dentist visits than conventional braces.
