What is Advanced Dental Technology?
The whole world relies on the power of technology and pediatric dentistry is no different. Advanced dental technologies (AKA digital dentistry) have improved accuracy in diagnosis, effectiveness in treatments, precision in dental care, expedited procedures, and enhanced comfort and convenience for young patients.
Advanced dental technologies include state-of-the-art imaging capabilities, computer-assisted single-tooth anesthesia, painless intraoral cameras and digital scanners, smaller X-rays for smaller mouths, and much more.
Benefits of Advanced Technology in Pediatric Dentistry
Immediate results of X-rays • Significant reduction in radiation exposure • Portable X-rays that fit smaller mouths • Less invasive imaging is easier for those with sensitive gag reflexes • Expedited dental restorations from the lab • Ceiling-mounted flat screens for distracting entertainment during treatments • Creates less waste (greener technology) • Online forms, and payments offer convenience for parents and guardians
Our passion for helping young people achieve and maintain excellent oral health extends beyond our practice. Our dentists regularly provide oral health demonstrations at local preschools and elementary schools. We are proud to support local Boys Scouts and Girls Scouts. Our founder, Dr. Aura Caldera also created the New York University Dental Outreach to Nicaragua, helping restore oral health to more than 10,000 low-income families.
Digital Dentistry at Valley Smiles Pediatric Dentistry
Digital X-rays
Digital X-rays reduce radiation exposure by up to 80%. They also yield immediate, high-quality images.
Intraoral Cameras
Painless intraoral cameras provide our pediatric dentists with 360-degree views of the teeth, jaws, and gums.
Nomad Portable Digital Imaging
The compact Nomad Portable X-ray device is ideal for X-rays on young patients who have received nitrous oxide for sedation. Its small size is particularly helpful for patients with sensitive gag reflexes.
Ceiling-Mounted Flat Screens
Our patients can choose from a selection of age-appropriate programming to watch on ceiling-mounted screens during their dental treatment.
Single Tooth Anesthesia (The Wand)
This digital device allows for anesthetizing a single tooth, rather than a section of the mouth.
Online Services for Patients
Online patient information, and payment options help save our patients and their families time.
