CEREC Milling Machine
Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics (CEREC) enables same-day restoration procedures by utilizing computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) technology. With CEREC, patients can enjoy the convenience of receiving custom-made crowns, veneers, and other dental restorations in just one visit, eliminating the need for multiple appointments and temporary restorations.
CBCT Scanner
Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT), is an advanced imaging technology that provides detailed three-dimensional images of a patient’s oral and maxillofacial structures. This non-invasive and efficient imaging tool allows Dr. Carpenter to accurately diagnose and plan treatment for complex cases, such as dental implant placement, orthodontic treatment, and evaluating TMJ disorders.
Milling Machine
Our state-of-the-art milling machine uses computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) technology to fabricate precise dental restorations from a solid block of material. This advanced technology allows for the efficient and accurate production of crowns, bridges, and other dental prosthetics, ensuring optimal fit, functionality, and aesthetics for patients.
iTero IOS
The iTero Intraoral Scanner (IOS) is a cutting-edge digital imaging system used in dentistry to capture highly accurate 3D images of a patient’s teeth and oral structures. With its advanced technology and seamless integration with digital workflows, the iTero IOS enhances diagnosis, treatment planning, and the creation of custom restorations, providing patients with a more comfortable and efficient dental experience.
Photogrammetry
Photogrammetry is a technique in dentistry that uses a series of overlapping photographs to create accurate three-dimensional models of dental structures. This non-invasive method allows for detailed analysis, treatment planning, and the creation of custom dental prosthetics with exceptional precision and fit, ultimately improving patient outcomes and satisfaction.
Air Abrasion
Air abrasion is a gentle and precise dental technique that utilizes a high-pressure stream of air and abrasive particles to remove decay and prepare teeth for restorations. This minimally invasive alternative to traditional drilling reduces the need for anesthesia, preserves healthy tooth structure, and enhances patient comfort during dental procedures.
