Unlike other dental offices that lack the desire to provide updated, modernized technology, we recognize the value that comes with offering innovative solutions to Rowlett patients in need. With everything from digital impressions and nitrous oxide to a cone beam scanner and intraoral camera, we can create more delightful experiences while also ensuring results are more accurate and long-lasting.

 

Nitrous Oxide Sedation (Laughing Gas)

If you or a loved one suffers from mild dental anxiety, we want to do something about it. With nitrous oxide, Dr. Chan can quickly alleviate fear or worry and instead create a space that allows for relaxation and comfort. The gas is inhaled through a nasal mask, causing the effects to come on quickly but also dissipate just as fast once the mask is removed. It is safe for children and adults and allows you to return to normal activity immediately following your appointment.

Digital Impressions

To craft a custom crown, veneer, or even dental bridge, we must capture impressions of your smile. Previously, only cold dental putty was used, causing patients to gag and sit for prolonged periods while the mold set up. Now, we can reduce the amount of time you spend waiting and avoid messy materials with the help of digital impressions. Using a handheld device, we can quickly scan your teeth and gums to generate a 3D model that lab technicians can use to create a precise and comfortable restoration.

CT/Cone Beam Scanner

When enhanced imaging is needed to prepare a treatment plan, we often turn to our CT/Cone Beam Scanner. This unique device rotates a full 360 degrees around your head to produce hundreds of images that come together and create a three-dimensional model. Allowing for high-resolution imaging, we can visibly see all areas of your oral and facial structures, making it easier to plan for dental implants, root canals, and other similar procedures.

Intraoral Camera

We no longer want our patients to feel in the dark about their oral healthcare, which is why we use an intraoral camera. Instead of waiting for Dr. Chan to explain what is happening inside your mouth, this device immediately projects images of your oral anatomy onto a chairside screen so that you can see exactly what he is referring to when discussing issues concerning your teeth or gums. Using this device takes the mystery out of dental care and replaces it with greater patient confidence.
