Digital X-rays
Our Boca Raton Periodontist, Endodontist, Orthodontist, and Cosmetic Dentist have the latest technology including Digital x-rays. They offer more precision and can be viewed instantly on our computer monitor. Digital x-rays result in less radiation exposure to you than conventioanl (film) x-rays. This allow us to see everything we cannot see with our own eyes, in enlarged detail. Dental Problems including asymptomatic infections, cavities, periodontal problems, and root canal issues can be detected and treated earlier as a result of this.
SOPRO Intra-Oral Camera
This Advanced Dental Camera can pick up nearly every detail of your teeth, gums, and the rest of your mouth allowing us to see small cavities, cracks, and other potential dental or periodontal problems, that are otherwise hard to see and can easily be missed. The images can be seen on our computer monitor, potential problems can be better explained to you, and diagnosis as well as treatment planning can be explained to you clearer.
Dentrix Dental Software

We get to save trees, and dont need to handle "unsanitary" paper charts resulting in potentially less risk of germ transmission. Chart information and X-rays are available faster to help expedite your visit with us.
ViziLite
Using ViziLite Plus along with a visual oral cancer examination improves our ability to identify suspicious areas earlier then we would with just a visual oral exam. Early detection of precancerous tissue can minimize effects of oral cancer. ViziLite Plus is a painless exam that gives us a better chance to find any oral abnormalities at an earlier stage.
Our practice continually strives to provide important enhancements in oral health care for patients. We are concerned about oral cancer and look for it in our patients.
One person dies every hour from oral cancer in the United States. Late detection of oral cancer is the primary reason that mortality rates are so dismal. As with most other cancers, age is the primary risk factor for oral cancer. Though tobacco is a major predisposing risk factor, 25% of oral cancer victims have no lifestyle risk factors. A Visilite exam takes 3 minutes, is painless and easy. If you have any questions about Visilite, or would like an evaluation to rule out Oral Cancer, please call us at (561) 226-0100 to speak with our Dentist.
