Laser Cavity Detection – unbelievable!
Have you ever gone to the dentist and he had found a cavity that he didn’t see just six months before, yet when the filling was placed it was very large? Have you wondered why the filling was so large when the cavity wasn’t even present just six months before? The fact is that the cavity was there for quite some time. The dentist just couldn’t see it, and the cavity wasn’t big enough to show on the x-rays. By the time the dentist knew it was there the cavity was already large. The greatest advance in dental diagnostics since the x-ray, the Laser Scanner can detect new cavities years before any other means of cavity detection. The Laser Scanner shines a harmless laser beam into the tooth. If tooth decay is present, even in very small amounts, it will be reflected back at the sensor in the laser. The laser will alert the doctor to the presence of a cavity, and also provide an indication of how much tooth decay is present.
The result? Small cavities are found much earlier, so no more big fillings! Don’t you wish we’d had this when YOU were a child?
Sealants with air abrasion that don’t fall out!
Do your children’s sealants keep falling out?
We often see new patients and find that they have had sealants that have simply fallen out. This really should be a rare occurrence. Sealants, properly applied, can be incredible in preventing cavities. In fact, MOST cavities occur in areas that could have been sealed.
Dr. Zirakian uses special techniques that more thoroughly cleans out the natural grooves of the teeth and enhances the ‘bond’ of the sealant to the teeth. We almost never see sealants come out.
Don’t let your children get tons of cavities like you may have gotten when you were your. We provide sealants that STAY PUT!!
Air Abrasion . . .
How Would You Like Dentistry Without Needles or Drills?
What would you say if you could have your fillings placed painlessly without drills or needles? You’d probably say, “Where do I sign up?” Well, now you can with a revolutionary new technology know as Air Abrasion. For many dental procedures Air Abrasion replaces the dentist’s drill. You’ve probably seen it on television recently.
This Air Abrasion is a breakthrough in comfortable dentistry. Micro-Fine particles are sprayed against the tooth in a very fine ‘particle beam’. These particles gently blow away tooth decay. Sound fantastic? Well, it is!
And there’s even more good news. Air Abrasion can help prevent the need for future crowns and even root canals. Cracking of teeth is a common reason that crowns are needed, and often, these cracks create the need for root canals. The dentist’s drill may cause tiny cracks that may, over the years, get bigger. But Air Abrasion is so gentle that it causes NO cracks whatsoever. Therefore, less change of needing root canals and crowns in the future.
If you’ve been putting off going to the dentist because you were nervous about the drill and needle, you don’t have to put it off any longer. We are proud to be amount the first to provide this comfortable new technology to our patients.

Of the 35.7 million American denture wearers
21.4 million of them have at least one problem with a denture
MDI Mini Implants is a new technology offering denture wearers enhanced lifestyles and confident smiles
Until recently, dentures were the standard replacement for people with lost teeth. They provide denture wearers with basic chewing function and a better appearance. However, it is common for denture wearers to suffer from degenerative bone loss caused by ill fitting, loose dentures. Constant friction and rubbing against the soft gum tissue produces sore spots, which can cause discomfort, and in some cases, infection.
Do you or someone you love suffer with poor dentures?
The absence of natural teeth triggers shrinkage of the ridge, gum and underlying bone. Combined with the pressure of a hard denture base, there is further shrinkage. Both factors contribute to a poor denture fit, and loss of denture retention. That’s why denture wearers turn to denture adhesives. Unfortunately, adhesives are messy, need regular reapplications, and are said to contribute to halitosis (bad breath).
Because of shrinkage, most denture wearers have their dentures adjusted and “relined” every two to four years, in an attempt to fill in the space between their ridge and their denture. But this doesn’t prevent further shrinkage.
MDI Mini implants provide a remedy. It is an FDA market-approved, inexpensive and straightforward solution.
MDI Mini Implants
-
Slow ridge degeneration
- Provide retention
- Cushion and stabilizes dentures
- Is used with either new or existing dentures
The technique utilizes four to six thin mini implants. Because of their ultra small size, mini implants do not require surgical incision into the gum tissue. The mini implants are attached between your bone structure and you dentures. A soft, elastic, silicone liner is fitted into your existing –or new-denture. The liner acts as a cushion between the denture and your gums and fits securely around the implants. The result – a comfortable fit and optimal retention.
The entire procedure is accomplished with local anesthesia, and is often completed in less than 2 hours. Fortunately, there is minimal healing discomfort. In no time at all, you will be able to eat hard-to-chew foods without fear of denture dislodgement.
