Polished Dental Care strives to stay on top of the latest technology to provide the highest quality treatment to our patients.

Panoramic Imaging

This state of the art panoramic x-ray machine is one of our favorite additions to our new office. The glass and walls protect our patients and staff from any radiation while the panoramic x-rays are being taken. Our favorite part is the classical music that plays while it captures an image. We know our patients will love it too!

 

Digital X-rays with Logicon

Digital radiographs have changed dentistry.  Pictures show up immediately on the computer in higher resolution while exposing patients to significantly less radiation than old-fashioned film X-rays.  In addition to digital radiography, we utilize a unique program called Logicon.  Logicon is an FDA approved software that aids in caries detection.  It assists dentists in the proper diagnosis of cavities between teeth.  It helps in detecting decay in early stages, allowing dentists to provide minimally invasive treatment.

All Paperless

In this day and age, most people are doing EVERYTHING on the computer or their phones.  Why should the dental office be any different?  At Polished Dental Care, we are completely paperless.  Patient forms are completed before their visits on their phone or computers or in our office on our IPad. Treatment plans are completed on the computer here in our office, and any patient information that must be exchanged via e-mail is completed on a HIPAA compliant server.

Intra-Oral Photography

As a part of everyone's treatment plan, we take intra-oral pictures with a special camera that can show you your mouth through our eyes.  Whether we are focusing on a specific tooth or an area on the gums, pictures can be taken, documented, and saved in a patient's electronic chart for reference.  Our camera uses focused light and magnification to help view teeth clearly.  This aids in patient education and helps our patients make informed decisions about their treatment and oral health.  In addition, these pictures can be submitted with insurance claims for case approval as X-rays alone may not tell the "entire" story.
