‍

‍Fotona Laser Technology
‍Laser dentistry allows for precise and minimally invasive dental procedures.Fotona lasers utilize specific wavelengths of light to target and interact with various dental tissues, such as enamel, dentin, and soft tissues. This technology is incredibly versatile and has a range of applications in the dental industry, including teeth whitening, periodontal treatment, cavity preparation, and even some surgeries.Fotona laser is also well-known for its sterilization and disinfection properties, reducing the risk of infection and promoting quicker recovery. They also offer a more comfortable experience for our patients, as procedures are often less painful, resulting in reduced anxiety associated with dental visits.

Guided Biofilm Therapy
‍Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT) is a cutting-edge dental approach that is transforming the way we treat and manage oral health. It is a comprehensive method designed to prevent and treat dental issues, primarily focusing on biofilm management and removal. Here's how GBT works and why it's a game-changer in dentistry.GBT employs advanced technology and techniques to target dental biofilm, the complex community of microorganisms that colonize on teeth and gums, causing issues like plaque, tartar, and periodontal diseases. The process begins with a comprehensive assessment to identify specific areas of concern. Then, a combination of air polishing and ultrasonic instrumentation is used to remove biofilm, stains, and calculus gently and effectively, leaving your teeth clean and healthy.GBT ensures a more comfortable and painless experience for patients, reducing anxiety often associated with traditional cleanings.

Digital Scanner
‍The scanner operates by employing optical technology, which captures precise 3D images of a patient's teeth and oral structures. As a patient sits comfortably in the dental chair, Dr. Gill gently moves the handheld scanner over the teeth and gums. The device emits a series of flashing lights, which are recorded by the scanner and instantly converted into a detailed digital model of the patient's mouth. This 3D model is then displayed on a computer screen in real-time, allowing usto view and manipulate it for treatment planning and diagnostics.The digital scanner eliminates the need for traditional, messy, and often uncomfortable impressions, alleviating patient discomfort. The digital process is much faster, reducing chair time and making the patient experience more efficient.  

‍Velscope: Oral Cancer Detection
‍Velscope operates on the principle of fluorescence visualization. It emits a safe, blue-spectrum light into the patient's mouth, which excites the natural fluorescence in oral tissues. Healthy tissues fluoresce differently from abnormal or potentially cancerous ones, making it easier for your dental team to differentiate them.The benefits of Velscope are numerous. It aids in the early detection of oral cancer, allowing for timely intervention and increasing the chances of successful treatment. Early diagnosis can mean the difference between life and death in cases of oral cancer. Moreover, Velscope is non-invasive, painless, and quick, making it a comfortable experience for patients. This technology complements the traditional oral examination, providing a more comprehensive assessment of a patient's oral health.
