Advanced Technology
Cone Beam CT
Our practice utilizes state-of-the-art, small volume cone-beam CT (computed tomography) technology that provides highly accurate, 3-D radiographic images for the diagnosis, planning and treatment of endodontic disease. This allows three-dimensional visualization of teeth, bone, sinuses and surrounding structures with minimal radiation to the patient, enabling a level of anatomical accuracy and patient care not possible with 2-D technology (regular dental x-rays). With the addition of cone-beam CT technology to our office, our practice is committed to providing innovative, high-quality, patient care.
Digital Imaging
Diablo View Endodontics carefully chooses which and when radiographs are taken based on guidelines that we follow. Radiographs allow us to see what we cannot within our visual field, and provide vast information to help your endodontist make an accurate diagnosis. Digital X-rays have an exposure time that is 90% less than traditional radiographs, significantly reducing radiation exposure to you. Images appear instantly and can be zoomed in for improved detection of minor issues that may otherwise be missed. Digital X-rays can also be stored and transferred easily to your general dentist or other specialists quickly and easily.
Surgical Microscopes
The introduction of the surgical microscope has revolutionized the field of Endodontics. We have invested in the very best quality surgical microscopes by Global and Zeiss, that provide unparalleled magnification and illumination for our surgical procedures. Our success depends on us being able to see the minutest of details – you cannot treat what you cannot see!
Laser Technology
Using laser technology for enhanced disinfection and irrigation has shown to improve outcomes by eliminating debris and bacteria. The laser energy penetrates into dentinal tubules that are not reachable through traditional instrumentation and irrigation. Lasers have been a cutting edge, new technology in Endodontics, with enhanced healing, reduced post-operative pain and higher success!
