More comfort through our high tech, up-to-date, state of the art technology.
Sunrise Dental uses the latest state of the art technology to give you a gentle experience, high-quality work and to minimize
the amount of time in our office.
Sunrise Dental uses Intraoral cameras are tiny digital cameras that fit
comfortably in your mouth and enable your Sunrise Dental dentist to show
you an enlarged image of your smile on a computer screen. The camera is
located in the tip of the Intraoral wand and transmits real-time video
for you and your Sunrise Dental Dentist to review. Not only does this
allow you to see what is really happening in your mouth, it also
documents what is seen, uploading it to a computer. Information can then
be printed out to provide a hard copy picture for your records or for
procedure verification by your insurance company.
Sunrise Dental also uses the panoramic X-ray which gives a broad
overview of the entire mouth. It is also used for evaluating patients:
• with past or present TMJ or jaw joint problems
• who require full or partial removable dentures, dental implants or braces
• who are at risk or suspected of having oral cancer or other tumors of the jaw
• have impacted teeth (especially wisdom teeth) or have had any recent trauma to the face
or teeth (e.g. can help identify a fractured jaw)
• and for those who cannot tolerate other types of films (severe gaggers)
The panoramic X-ray is an important part of a thorough dental
examination and should be done every several years as it can pick-up
potential problems that the other X-rays cannot.
