Advanced Technologies

 
  We constantly strive to provide our patients with the finest dental care available. Our investment in advanced technology means a long-term investment in your future. State-of-the-art technology invites informed decision-making and enables our patients to make wise choices concerning their oral health. Dr. Scherer offers the latest technology for your benefit.

Endodontic Microscope: The use of this tool enables Dr. Scherer to perform treatment with greater accuracy because the treatment area is magnified – periodontal fibers and ligaments are illuminated and fractures or root defects can be seen. Attached to our microscope is an intra-oral camera. This high-powered camera allows Dr. Scherer to quickly and precisely photograph the inside of your mouth. The photographic image is magnified and projected onto a monitor which gives you the ability to participate in your treatment.

Digital X-ray: This allows us to use the latest technology to better diagnose your tooth's health, while greatly minimizing the amount of x-ray exposure you may have to experience.
Not only are you saved from the x-ray exposure, the image of your x-ray is displayed on a screen in front of you and you are better able to understand where the problem is and why treatment might be recommended.
