Technology

Digital X-Rays

Digital radiography (digital x-ray) is the latest technology used to take dental x-rays.  This technique uses an electronic sensor (instead of x-ray film) that captures and stores the digital image on a computer.  This image can be instantly viewed and enlarged helping the dentist and dental hygienist detect problems easier.  Digital x-rays reduce radiation 80-90% compared to the already low exposure of traditional dental x-rays.

Dental x-rays are essential, preventative, diagnostic tools that provide valuable information not visible during a regular dental exam.  Dentists and dental hygienists use this information to safely and accurately detect hidden dental abnormalities and complete an accurate treatment plan.  Without x-rays, problem areas may go undetected.

Dental x-rays may reveal:
  • Abscesses or cysts.
  • Bone loss.
  • Cancerous and non-cancerous tumors.
  • Decay between the teeth.
  • Developmental abnormalities.
  • Poor tooth and root positions.
  • Problems inside a tooth or below the gum line.

Detecting and treating dental problems at an early stage may save you time, money, unnecessary discomfort, and your teeth!

DIAGNOdent

Our Diagnodent Laser locates decay below the gum line and between teeth. It can even detect areas prone to future decayso that we can work with you on prevention. Cavities found early can often be treated conservatively without the use of anesthetic.

Soft-Tissue Laser

 
We use our Biolase® diode laser to recontour gums, remove overgrowths, and many other soft-tissue procedures. Reduction of bacteria and inflammation can often be achieved without the need for anesthetic.

SterilizationIn our sterilization station, we use state-of-the-art technology, including hands-free features and color-coded sterile and non-sterile units that meet or exceed OSHA standards.CEREC®

Zeik Dental is pleased to offer our patients CEREC restoration services - a superior method of creating precisely-designed, color-matched and highly durable ceramic restorations right in our dental practice. CEREC 3D allows your cosmetic dental work to be completed in just one appointment. From simple fillings, inlays to partial crowns, full crowns to veneers, CEREC delivers results that patients will be happy with, all in a single visit.

Electric High-Speed Hand Pieces

The traditional dental hand piece is air driven. The compressed air drives a turbine in the head of the hand piece, producing a high-pitched, often anxiety-provoking noise and vibration. Our electric hand pieces are powered by an extremely quiet electric motor, with much greater strength (torque) and precision than air-driven equipment. This vastly improved hand piece design can reduce the time you spend in the chair and may significantly improve the quality and fit of your final restorations.

Zoom!® Whitening

Zoom! Whitening dramatically whitens teeth in less than an hour. You can relax to music while we brighten your smile up to ten shades. We believe that while healthcare is vital and necessary to our patient’s well-being there is no need for it to be uncomfortable. In fact, it should be pampered and downright enjoyable! That’s why we aim for total, complete, VIP 5-Star Service for you while in our care. Your comfort and personalized attention should come first.
