We incorporate the latest advances in endodontic equipment and techniques to improve and facilitate the way we care for you. This results in better dental evaluation and treatment decisions.
All rooms are equipped with dental operating microscopes including the Zeiss OMI Pico & PROergo which allow power adjustments for focus, zoom, focal length, and intensity of the Zenon light source. Each room also has its own x-ray head, ASI dental unit complete with air-driven high and low speed, fiber optic handpieces, rotary motor, ultrasonics, system B, obtura, dual micro irrigators, micro air syringes, and curing light.
A sophisticated ultrasonic unit is integrated in each operatory for root end surgery, non-surgical re-treatment, to remove broken instruments, posts, chase calcified canals, and other procedures. Diamond coated ultrasonic tips result in faster and smoother retro preparation.
The degree of cleaning and shaping determines the success of root canal therapy. Files that are used to remove harmful material from the root canals and give them the correct shape are made of a unique alloy of nickel-titanium. Hand and rotary instruments are used along with liquid antimicrobial agents help maximize the removal of bacteria within the root canal system.
ProRoot® MTA is a revolutionary root canal repair material that is a unique improvement over other materials used for repair. Made up of fine hydrophilic particles that set in the presence of water, ProRoot® MTA seals off all pathways between the root canal system and surrounding tissues, significantly reducing bacterial migration. Its excellent biocompatibility with the dentinal wall and surrounding tissue allows for a predictable clinical healing response. Our doctors use ProRoot® MTA for:
• repair of root perforations
• treating internal and external root resorption
• root-end filling
• pulp-capping
• apexogenesis
• apical plug during apexification
