General Dentistry in Davidson NC: What's New In Dentistry?

The world of dentistry continues to advance at a rapid pace. Coming to our practice for General dentistry in Davidson NC doesn’t have to feel like a boring old visit anymore. If you have visited your dentist lately, you have probably noticed some new things that make your visit a little more comfortable, such as a watching a movie on a widescreen HDTV or listening to music while you’re receiving treatment. Furthermore, many patients can now affordably enjoy sedation to reduce or eliminate oral pain.

What may not be as obvious are the advances in techniques, tools, and materials. Top Davidson dentists now use digital computer imaging, which is safer than traditional x-rays. Dental technicians can store, retrieve and transmit digital images much easier than was possible with traditional x-ray film.

The use of lasers has also changed the face of dentistry. Laser surgery requires less anesthesia, minimizes swelling, and protects surrounding tissue. With General dentistry in Davidson NC, we can now use lasers for detecting and treating cavities. Additionally, dental technicians use them for the curing of restorative materials.

Another exciting development in cosmetic dentistry is the CAD-CAM technology that allows dentists to perform restorations in a single visit. The types of procedures that can be completed in one visit include crowns, fillings, inlays, onlays and veneers.
