New dental technology and hi-tech diagnostic tools are changing the way that modern dentists operate. This new technology helps to demystify dentistry and allows you, the patient, to see what we see in order to understand, treat, and prevent dental disorders.

In our operatories, we use a self contained water system . This ensures that you are exposed to only the purest of water and our water lines remain free of contaminants. In order to protect our staff and our patients, our office uses universal precautions and employs a combination of hot and cold sterilization techniques. We go above and beyond, to ensure your safety, by enlisting an independent agency to closely monitor our techniques and ensure that these standards are maintained.

iTero Element 5D

Digital dentistry has arrived!  The iTero Element 5D imaging system is the first hybrid dental imaging system that simultaneously records 3D, intraoral color, and NIRI (near infra-red images).  This means that, in most cases, we don’t have to put goopy impression material in your mouth anymore.  You will appreciate it when we can streamline your Invisalign case or send your crown and implant case directly to the lab.

Digital X-Rays

90% less radiation than traditional x-rays, digital x-rays have made dentistry safer and more efficient. With enhanced software capabilities, we are able to enlarge, change contrast, take measurements- all making diagnosis easier and more accurate. Gone are the days when we squint to look at small film-based x-rays and tell you that you have a cavity. Now we can show you exactly where the cavity is in Hi-Definition!

Ultrasonic Scalers

Our ultrasonic scalers gently vibrate plaque and stains off your teeth while a fine water spray flushes the debris away.  We try to minimize the amount of “scraping” that is needed, resulting in a more comfortable visit for you.

Panoramic X-Ray

Our digital panoramic x-ray is a wonderful modern invention that has much less radiation than the traditional full set of 18 smaller x-rays. It is much more comfortable and faster to take. The “pano” shows many structures that are not visible in the traditional full mouth series; from structures in the upper neck all the way up to the nasal sinus.  It can reveal cysts, tumors, and other irregularities. We have invested in this technology because our Milpitas dentists truly believe in its diagnostic benefits to our patients.

Biolase Soft Tissue Laser

Soft tissue lasers can replace a scalpel for many cosmetic cases. Healing time is much faster than traditional methods, and it is so comfortable that most of the time we don’t have to make you numb. We use our soft tissue laser for gingival recontouring and frenectomies.
