The E4D is a high-tech dental device focused on 3D imaging. Patients will benefit from this technology as they will receive their restorations in a single day instead of two separate visits. It all starts with a digital scan eliminating the need for messy, uncomfortable, and time consuming conventional impressions.
Next, Drs. Kalebjian and Khater who have full control of your restoration's design, fabricate the crown, inlay, onlay, or veneer on a computer program. Then, the information is sent to a milling machine (much like a 3D printer) where a precision restoration is processed.
Finally, your crown, inlay, onlay, or veneer is ready for placement and you can avoid worrying about breaking or losing a temporary. Best of all, the process takes one day vs. the traditional two week ordeal. Less time, less mess, more ease.
Digital Radiography or X-rays are one of the most important innovations in modern dentistry as it benefits both the patient and the dentist. Patients who have digital x-rays of their teeth taken at Fresno Dental Works receive 90% less radiation than traditional film radiographs. Dentists and patients are able to view these radiographs instantly for more efficient treatment. These digital images can be used to illustrate cavities and periodontal disease. Our dentists have the ability to change the contrast and magnification to help detect cavities and assist with diagnosis. This technology is an important tool as it aids in patient education, safety, and allows the dentist to "see" more through digital image enhancement.
In this day and age, over 80% of Americans communicate through text on their cell phones, which is why we use Lighthouse 360, a patient-based communication system. This system allows our patients to receive reminders, alerts, and other pertinent information regarding their dental care. Patients can even confirm their appointments through text. Of course, we make traditional phone calls if the patient desires. Having the ability to uniquely enable our patients to reach us through mediums such as email and text allows for greater convenience. At Fresno Dental Works, we understand that your daily lifestyle can be busy, so Lighthouse 360 is just another portal or option that we can provide to our patients to make life easier.
