High Tech Dentistry

We are excited about the new technology we use that can show you a complete picture of your mouth with the wave of a wand. Our digital scanner can quickly identify and show you the condition of your oral health. If you need an impression, a digital scan offers a more complete view with no sticky goop or gagging. Your scan also allows us to create a record that can monitor tooth wear and movement, allowing us to track changes over time. Did we mention no harmful radiation? With just one scan, our iTero scanner gives you a comprehensive view of your mouth and makes it easier to understand the next steps in your dental journey or treatment plan.

Your smile is the way you greet the world. While you have many options for whitening your teeth, your dentist is your best resource for whitening treatments. Only dental professionals have access to the most powerful, professional-strength whitening and can ensure your treatment is safe and your results are outstanding. At our practice we have several whitening treatments including Phillips Zoom Teeth Whitening System - one of the fastest teeth whitening systems on the market today.  We are offering 2 professional teeth whitening solutions: 1. Philips Zoom WhiteSpeed in-office treatment for brighter smile in one visit and 2. Philips Zoom take-home treatments for noticeably whiter teeth in just a few days.

We are pleased to offer the highly effective BIOLASE Epic™ dental laser technology in our dental practice. This gentle laser treatment alternative to traditional methods is used in many dental procedures for periodontal disease and various soft tissue concerns such as: removing of oral lesions, treating tooth sensitivity, relieving pain, esthetic contouring of the gums, treating and preventing gum disease and laser teeth cleaning.

Dr. Tufa and her staff are trained and qualified to utilize the Epic™ laser technology to treat many soft tissue dental conditions. No scalpel and sutures needed - we can instead remove harmful bacteria and infected tissue quickly and painlessly using a concentrated beam of light. Our patients appreciate the opportunity to have this type of dental work completed in non-invasive way - less pain and bleeding combined with faster recovery time. If you would like to experience soft tissue laser dentistry for yourself, please call us to schedule an appointment.

At our dental practice, we use Mouthwatch intraoral camera which is basically a small wand that allows us to take close-up, high-resolution pictures of your teeth and gums that we can then display on a large monitors or TV screens in our operatories. With this technology we can uncover issues not visible with dental x-rays such as cracked teeth, plaque, hidden cavities next to fillings and excessive teeth wear. This helps us discover any oral problems early so we can prevent more invasive and more costly procedures in the future. It also enables you as a patient to gain a better understanding of your oral health since Dr. Tufa or our hygienists can go over your images with you and point out what they are seeing.
