New Technology!

Until recently, the only way a dental x-ray could be taken was by the exposure of a small film packet. This was followed by a development time of 5-10 minutes and involved the use of potentially dangerous chemicals. Our office is proud to offer the new technology of digital x-rays to our patients which eliminates the time and chemicals needed in the past. Digital x-rays have many advantages over traditional x-rays. It's faster with instant viewing. There is up to 90% less radiation required to expose the film with many electronic image enhancements. The film packet is replaced by a small sensor that is connected to a computer. Now your x-ray may be viewed on a monitor in just a few seconds. This allows us to see details of the x-ray that can be adjusted, which aids us in diagnosis.

Multimedia Education

The digital revolution is present in our office. It is multimedia patient education on DVD. With this DVD technology, we are able to provide you, the patient, with interactive, comprehensive dental information both visually and verbally. Our system is called the Clinically Advanced Education System or CASEY for short. With our CASEY system, we are able to explain dental problems and procedures utilizing clear narration and thousands of graphics. This new technology reflects the central communities concern for your comfort. We know from experience that when you understand what we are doing, your concerns and apprehension will be greatly reduced. We also would like to encourage your questions and participation as we proceed with treatment.
