At East Hanover Family Dental in East Hanover, NJ, we are dedicated to using the latest technology to provide exceptional dental care. Our advanced equipment and techniques allow us to offer efficient, effective, and comfortable treatments, ensuring the best possible patient experiences and outcomes.
Digital X-Rays
Digital dental x-rays are an essential diagnostic tool that helps our dental care providers identify damage and disease that may not be visible during a regular check-up. The frequency of x-rays depends on your current oral health, age, risk for oral disease, and any signs or symptoms of oral issues. For new patients, x-rays are often recommended to establish a baseline for future comparisons and to assess the current state of oral health.
These x-ray exams are safe, utilizing very low levels of radiation. We follow the ALARA (as low as reasonably achievable) principle to minimize radiation exposure. Our tools and techniques are designed to protect patients, ensuring a safe experience during every procedure.
Intraoral Camera
The intraoral camera provides detailed imaging of your teeth, allowing us to detect small issues like cracks, cavities, and other abnormalities. This technology uses liquid lens technology similar to the human eye, producing clear and accurate images. These images help our team identify potential dental problems and communicate them effectively to patients. The camera also features a polarizer option that reduces glare, improving diagnosis and practice efficiency.
Autoclave Sterilization
Sterilization is vital for eliminating all infectious microorganisms. Autoclave sterilization is a widely used, reliable method that ensures the complete destruction of microorganisms on instruments and surfaces. This process is nontoxic and cost-effective, making it an essential part of maintaining a safe and sterile environment in our practice.
