Digital X-Ray
Modern technology has changed the way we take dental radiographs. At the American Dental Clinic digital radiology technology allows us to use computerized sensors rather than film to capture images of the teeth.
Digital X-rays offer unparallel benefits over traditional radiographs:
They are convenient, safe for the environment, provide a great opportunity for the patient education, can transferred and copied accurately, but most of all, they are safer for the patient due to the significant reduction in radiation exposure.
Intra Oral Camera
The intraoral camera is routinely used in American Dental Clinic to assist in the diagnosis and also as a visual aid for the patient to be able to see exactly what the dentist sees in their mouths. They say a picture is worth a thousand words and this revolutionary diagnostic dental instrument eliminates any confusion between doctor and patient when communicating treatment options. Capturing images with the intraoral camera is painless and there is no radiation exposure risk as visible light is used to generate the photographs.
Digital Photography
High resolution color digital photographs are taken on every patient for proper diagnosis and treatment planning. Images taken before treatment help the dentist and patient communicate their expectations of the end result of treatment. Photographs taken after treatment and compared to the initial photographs are a reminder of how advanced modern dentistry has become.
Infection control
Infection Control in our Clinic is very important. To protect our patients and ourselves, we strictly maintain sterilization and contamination processes as recommended by the American Dental Association.
Our clinic is equipped with some of the best methods to maintain sterilization and disinfection.
Instruments are cleaned using an Ultrasonic Cleaner and sterilized using an Autoclave, a device that kills bacteria and viruses by steam, heat and pressure. All instruments are kept sterilized in special bags and are opened before use.
