Grand Dental – South Elgin understands what it takes to ensure accuracy and precision. Instead of turning to more traditional forms of treatment, our team incorporates high-tech innovations that allow for higher-resolution imaging and more comfortable care. From digital X-rays and a soft tissue laser to a cone beam scanner and intraoral camera, our dental team moves beyond the baseline of dentistry. We use only the most advanced dental technology in South Elgin to ensure a more updated and patient-focused approach to better oral healthcare.
An intraoral camera is a unique device that now allows Dr. Siewert to not only see more detailed areas of your teeth and gums but also projects the image onto a chairside monitor so that you, too, can see. This enhancement makes it possible to educate patients on the importance of oral hygiene and the reason for such treatments. If a problem is found, we can immediately discuss which method of care will be best and go over the details concerning your proposed treatment plan.
Digital dental X-rays allow for much clearer images of your teeth, gums, and all structures that exist below the gumline. Instead of waiting hours to see the images, they are produced in just seconds, making it quicker and easier for our team to analyze their findings. Also, by switching to digital, these X-rays emit far less radiation than traditional radiographs, making them safer for children and adults.
When more complex methods of treatment must be performed, our team uses the CT/Cone Beam Scanner. Your teeth, gums, nerve pathways, and bone can be easily viewed thanks to the 360-degree rotating arm that captures hundreds of images in seconds. Forming to create a single 3D model of your head and mouth, Dr. Siewert can review the status of your oral health and make the appropriate recommendation for treatment.
When the soft oral tissues inside your mouth require proper care, our team turns to our soft tissue laser for help. Capable of targeting harmful bacteria that cause gum disease, releasing banded tissues through the process of a frenectomy, or reshaping gumlines to create a more uniform appearance, this handheld device makes it easy to target designated areas without touching healthy tissues. Not to mention, the laser reduces bleeding and swelling and minimizes the chance of infection once the process is complete.
