SPONSORED CONTENT BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT SPONSORED CONTENT South Hills Dental Arts - Always Upgrading For Patients I t’s hard to take notice of change when you only visit a place twice a year. But for the people working at South Hills Dental Arts every day, change is constant and always to benefit the patients. That’s because Dr. Steven Crandall, an owner and Clinical Advisor of South Hills Dental Arts, believes that all patients deserve the best care possible. Upgraded technology and techniques are important considerations to a successful modern dental practice and particularly in their world of digital dentistry. “We’re constantly updating our technology here. Each year we seek out the newest and best things available to help our patients get a higher quality of care. You have to upgrade your 3-D X-ray machines and imaging scanners regularly because the newer models are more exact and allow us to do more precise procedures. Technology is constantly surpassing itself and that helps us to help our patients.” In addition to new equipment for their offices, South Hills Dental Arts has built its own laboratory that also has the latest equipment. Having their own lab provides for easier communication between their dentists and the lab technicians ultimately enabling them to get the result that the patients are desiring. “We are fortunate to have the resources and the people to provide these services,” Dr. Crandall said. “We invest a lot of time, talent and treasure into providing the level of care our patients deserve. Naturally it’s not solely about the technology, it’s also about proper training on philosophy and execution of technique that’s important too.” Dr. Crandall, a Upper St. Clair resident since 1972, founded South Hills Dental Arts in his own community. Having practiced for 36 years and having sought out the masters in many areas of dentistry has enabled him to develop a protocol that allows them to deliver care in a way rarely found. That practice has blossomed into locations in Ingram and Sewickley as well. They’ve added five doctors, two in the past year alone, to broaden their reach in their pursuit of helping more patients, whether they need a regular check up and cleaning or more advanced services like implants, prosthetics, veneers or full mouth reconstruction. With this technology and protocol South Hills Dental Arts can produce 3-D X-rays and digital scans of patient’s mouth then print or mill 3-D models, crowns ,veneers, snap-in and screw retained teeth for their patients. This digital process often allows them have crowns made in one day in many cases. This avoids them having to wear a temporary crown, return for additional appointments with more injections and spend more time. Tekscan bite force analysis helps them determine bite forces for TMJ patients to reverse the ravages of a lifetime of broken teeth, headaches and jaw pain. They’re also on the forefront of veneers and cosmetic dentistry.
