X-rays have been extremely valuable for many years in assessments of oral health. However, at times the image produced can show limited information because it is only a 2D image. Intra-oral cameras (IOCs) allow an operator to see a clear image of the inside of the mouth. Similar to the size of a dental mirror IOCs have a tiny camera that is able to detect more on the 3D surface of a tooth than a 2D x-ray image is able to show. Examples include specific locations and sizes of cavities, cracked teeth, excessive erosion, abrasion and many more.
Piezo Surgical Motor
Dental piezo surgery is an improved method of removing tooth structure or hard tissue to prepare for an implant. It ultrasonically removes the hard tissue that is no longer needed, without placing much stress on the bone or patient. Special Piezo tips are used on the handpiece, which enables a saline solution to internally run through it to keep the tooth cool and protect the piezo tip.
Dentists find it particularly important to provide the best quality care for their patients. During dental implantology and other oral surgical.
