Intraoral Cameras

Intraoral camera system

If you’ve ever wondered what the dentist sees during your routine exam, Dr. Moulton’s Acucam intraoral cameras are likely to pique your interest. This small, handheld device is equipped with a small camera, which captures detailed images of all your oral structures. After the exam, we can easily show you the exact state of your current oral health. Additionally, if we believe that you need a certain treatment, such as a crown or filling, we can easily discuss why as we view these images on a nearby monitor.

All-Digital X-Rays

Digital x-rays

In the past, capturing X-rays was a time-consuming process. Previously, detailed images of your underlying oral structures were not convenient to obtain. But thanks to digital advancements in the field of dentistry, capturing images of your teeth and jaw only takes minutes. Furthermore, going digital helps us reduce the amount of radiation exposure from X-ray machines by 80 percent, ensuring a safer diagnostic process overall. During your appointment, we’ll make sure to provide all the necessary precautions to protect you and your family members.

Soft Tissue Laser Dentistry

Soft tissue dental laser system

Laser dentistry has been around for many years now, but only some dentists have begun introducing it to their patients. By opting for soft tissue lasers, Dr. Moulton can perform more precise treatments, including periodontal therapy and preparation for crowns and bridges. Furthermore, because soft tissue lasers cauterize organic material upon contact, it reduces the amount of healing necessary in aftercare and leads to significantly less discomfort during the actual procedure.

Piezo Ultrasonic Handpieces

Piezo Ultrasonic system

Whether you need to have your routine cleaning performed or a more comprehensive treatment, you can expect only the best in dental instruments. Piezo’s Ultrasonic handpieces are designed to perform a wide variety of dental procedures, including root canal therapy, plaque and tartar removal via scaling, and preparation for dental fillings. By choosing an ultrasonic option, we can be as effective as possible when administering these treatments and ensure the best outcomes for your family.

Calaject

Calaject local anesthesia system

When the time comes for administering local anesthetic, the last thing we want to do is make you feel uncomfortable. Through computer-assisted methods via Calaject, Dr. Moulton can make the process of receiving anesthetic more comfortable overall. Calaject is more accurate and allows for more control than what you would find with a traditional syringe. Not only does this make it easier for our dental office to prescribe anesthetic, but for our patients to complete certain treatments as well.

DIAGNOdent Cavity Detection

DIAGNOdent cavity detection system

The sooner we can catch dental disease or systemic issues, the easier it will be to treat and improve these conditions. With the help of the DIAGNOdent cavity detection system, our dental office can more effectively catch the early development of cavities. Once we know that the early signs of cavities are present, we can better provide treatments that protect your tooth enamel as well as recommend habits to keep that tooth healthy in between visits.
