Advanced Dental Technology – Hamden, CT

Intraoral Camera

Our intraoral camera is a pen-sized instrument that enables our team to capture highly detailed images of your mouth’s interior, which we can instantly show you on a monitor right in the treatment room. The pictures will give you insight into your oral health and help you gain a deeper understanding of why your dentist may recommend a certain treatment.

Digital X-Rays

X-rays are an indispensable diagnostic tool in our dental office because they equip us to catch dental problems before they are visible to the naked eye. To make sure we do not miss even the smallest detail, we have upgraded to fully digital X-rays. They are able to capture images much faster than traditional film. They also display more detail and emit up to 90% less radiation! Plus, we can quickly edit the images to make them easier to understand, meaning that you can clearly see what your dentist is talking about when you are discussing treatment options.

Soft Tissue Laser Dentistry

No, the lasers we use are not like what you would see in a science fiction movie — the ones we use are much smaller! With our advanced soft tissue lasers, we are able to quickly remove gum disease bacteria and even infected tissue while causing little to no swelling, bleeding, or pain. That is because the beam of light both sanitizes and cauterizes an area as it moves. Plus, the laser creates almost no heat, sound, or vibration, a fact that makes it easier for patients to remain comfortable throughout their procedure.
