Dental Technology in Saint John
At Avenue Dental, our dentists use dental technology to serve you better. From dental scanners to dental lasers, these technologies help to improve the diagnosis of dental problems so we can assess your condition and provide the required treatments every time.
Intraoral Camera
An intraoral scanner is a tool that is used to capture detailed 3D digital impressions of your mouth. Unlike older 2D technologies that require impression material that causes gagging and choking, these new scanners are far more comfortable and provide images quickly so you can discuss the results with your dentist.
iTero Scanner
The iTero scanner is a scanning technology that creates high-quality digital impressions of your mouth within minutes. The scanner is used to diagnose dental issues that are not visible to the naked eye, including cavities, plaque build-up, calculus below the gum line, and tooth infection. They are also helpful when designing tooth restorations and planning Invisalign treatment.
Dental Lasers
Dental lasers are ideal for use in dentistry as they offer more comfort for the patient, often removing the need for local anesthetic. These tools provide more precision than traditional tools, allowing for the conservation of more bone and tooth tissue during treatment. Lasers are also used to harden fillings, remove bacteria from the teeth, and for gum reshaping.
