PLEASE GIVE A BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF YOUR PRACTICE.
“We are a high-service, high-quality dental practice with a very comfortable beach vibe. Our office staff and employees are constantly exposed to continuing education to stay knowledgeable in all areas of our field. Over the past 25 years of the practice, we have been committed to the highest level of quality dental care by constantly updating our skills and knowledge through extensive continuing education programs, as well as investing in the most advanced dental materials and technology. We care about our patients’ total health and well-being.”
WHAT’S ONE TREND THAT IS DEFINING YOUR SPECIALTY TODAY?
“We have been using digital X-rays, paperless charting and photography for years, and now we are using CEREC digital cad cam technology for most of our tooth restorations. Last year we invested in an Acteon SOPROLIFE; the camera magnifies your tooth 40 times larger and can detect a cavity in its early stages using a florescent light that detects bacteria and decay. We also offer Invisalign treatment, which is digitally based, and patients love the fact that they are ‘clear braces’ and fit into their lives so easily.”
