Learn More About the New Technologies Our Santa Monica Dentist Uses In-Office

Written by Dr. Follette on Jun 27, 2023

Our Santa Monica dentists have seen, over the years, that state-of-the-art dental technology can completely transform patients’ smiles while also transforming their experiences in the dentist’s chair. This is why we are devoted to continually updating our practice with new technologies and treatments. Keep reading to learn more about the treatments we offer!

Digital Oral Scans: this alternative to traditional X-rays allows our team to get a precise and clear picture of your oral health. When used in conjunction with our state-of-the-art software, this image is actually interactive and allows our team to pre-plan your dental treatment down to the smallest detail. Additionally, digital X-rays emit significantly less radiation than traditional X-rays.

CEREC: CEREC crowns are impressively detailed and crafted, and they’re created and placed in just one dental appointment. CEREC technology allows our team to create your crown right here in our office, rather than having to work with an outside lab. You can come in with dental damage, and leave with a restored smile the same day.

Dental Implants: these replacement teeth are the most state-of-art restorative option available today. The thing that sets dental implants apart is that they are permanently anchored into the patient’s jawbone with titanium roots. The titanium of the implant bonds to the patient’s bone, and keeps the new tooth in place, while also supporting overall oral health.

Sedation Treatment: people who suffer from dental anxiety and fear can often benefit from sedation treatment. This option keeps patients calm and comfortable in the dentist’s chair. We use patient-friendly sedation treatments like oral conscious sedation!
