Advanced Technology
Surgical Microscopes
The introduction of the surgical microscope has revolutionized the field of Endodontics. We have invested in the very best quality surgical microscopes that provide unparalleled magnification and illumination for our surgical procedures.
Our success depends on us being able to see the minutest of details – you cannot treat what you cannot see.
Digital Imaging and X-rays
Beam Endodontics carefully chooses which and when radiographs, commonly known as X-rays, are taken. There are many guidelines that we follow. Dental radiographs are invaluable aids in diagnosing, treating, and maintaining dental health. Radiographs allow us to see many things 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.
Beam Endodontics utilizes Digital Imaging Technologies within the office. Digital X-rays offer more precision since we view the image on a computer monitor, instead of holding a 35mm film up to the light. Digital X-rays result in a fraction of the radiation exposure to you. With digital imaging, exposure time is about 90 percent less when compared to traditional radiographs. Digital imaging allows us to store and compare patient images, and enables us to quickly and easily transfer them to other health care professionals or insurance companies.
Cone Beam CT
Our practice utilizes state-of-the-art, small volume cone-beam CT (computed tomography) technology that provides highly accurate, 3-D radiographic images for the diagnosis, planning and treatment of endodontic disease. This allows three-dimensional visualization of teeth, bone, sinuses and surrounding structures with minimal radiation to the patient, enabling a level of anatomical accuracy and patient care not possible with 2-D technologies (regular dental x-rays). With the addition of cone-beam CT technology to our office, our practice is committed to providing innovative, high-quality, patient care.
