Woodbury Dentist Dr. Marko Kamel reveals what is new in dental technology.
What Is New In Dental Technology?
It seems that iPhones and tablets are getting all the new technology attention! Have you noticed other industries where technology is competitive and completely changing the industry? Dentistry is competing big time - have you noticed? Right here in the winter wonderland of Woodbury, MN - modern digital dentistry has changed the dental world. Dental equipment and tools now make procedures safer, faster, painless, and more comfortable during your entire visit. In this article I will highlight the top 14 latest and greatest dental technology changes that will change your old memories of what is found in a dental office. These can all be found in the dental wonderland of Woodbury Dental Arts.
The standard old memories of what going to the dentist was like will disappear the minute you step into this modern environment! Children who will have this as their first dental office experience will never know what you use to fear! There aren't the standard little duplicate chairs of a former dental waiting room. Instead you will find a huge waiting room with comfortable chairs, a fireplace, a huge TV screen and evening a fish tank. The staff immediately makes you feel so comfortable you may think that maybe this is really a spa - not a dental clinic. As you enter the clinic part, you will notice huge TV screens everywhere and equipment so new and innovative you might not recognize seeing it or having heard about it.

Below are the 14 new dental technologies found at Woodbury Dental Arts:
Dental Technology #1 - No More Repeat Visits Are Needed - The "CERAC Machine" can create a new crown or digital implant in just one visit. You can now go from the diagnosis through the lab and finish in just one visit. Also, with the new "Sapphire Whitening System" can whiten your teeth up to 12 shades lighter in one visit.

Dental Technology #2 - Pain & Anxiety Elimination - With the "Dental Vibe" vibrating during injections, you are no longer aware of getting a "shot". If you need to deeply relax (without any controlled substances) they have "NuCalm". If you need ambulatory anesthesia, no need to leave the clinic, it can be done right there with "Universal Anesthesia". Those that have a lot of work to be done or are afraid can just go to sleep and wake up with everything done. For example, impacted wisdom teeth, multiple fillings and bridges can all be done in one visit without anxiety.
Dental Technology #3 - Instant 3D X-Rays - Gone are the old fashioned X-rays where you need to wear a lead apron to protect yourself. The "3D Gallileo Cone Beam X-Ray" captures 3D digital images of your teeth that can be viewed on the big screen TV immediately while you have such a low dose of radiation you do not need to wear any protection.
Dental Technology #4 - Video Tour Of Your Mouth - You no longer have to wonder what they see inside your mouth, you can look together with the "Intraoral Camera" which is the size of a pen which shows what it views on the big screen TV for both you and the dentist to see at the same time.
Dental Technology #5 - Mercury-Free Care – Now the unattractive silver fillings when you open your mouth are a thing of the past. They now have tooth colored fillings made of BPA-free resins, sealers and concretes, which are used in place of silver fillings, made of mercury (as they are a major source of direct mercury exposure). Watch this video on, “Do Mercury Fillings Cause Problems? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lgrsQGjYTVo
Dental Technology #6 - Oral Cancer Screening- Gone are the oral cancer worries. At the same time as you are getting your dental check-up, you can get an oral cancer screening. The dentist now uses the "VELscope Vx" which is a hand held blue light that shows abnormal suspicious cancerous or precancerous tissue.
Dental Technology #7 - Lasers Can Find Decay -Cavities are now smaller as they are found earlier with the "Diagnodent Laser" which is a tool the size of a pen and can find decay much earlier in places that use to be hidden.
Dental Technology #8 - Previewing Your Final Smile -The decision to go ahead with a dental procedure is now a no brainer. The "SNAP Simulation" gives you a finished dental view with dental imaging. The before and after pictures can be viewed on the big screen TV or taken home to show your family.
Dental Technology #9 - Animation or Ultrasound of Your Bite - Correcting a bite problem is no longer a complex problem. The Bite FX Guru animates your bite and the Doppler Digital Ultrasound shows how your jaw sounds.
Dental Technology #10 - Eliminate Snoring - Would you have ever even have dreamed that snoring could be eliminated by your dentist? Now dentists are great sleep Doctors. They even have sleep evaluations, which can determine if an oral appliance (4 types) could provide a simple solution and a great alternative to the ugly and irritating "CPAP Machine".

Dental Technology #11 - Headache Relief - Chronic migraines and headaches solutions eliminated at a dental office? Yes, unbelievable but true! Dentists are now great headache Doctors with the "TruDenta Pain Relief System". Watch this video on TruDenta https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gkn5LGQwF20
Dental Technology #12 - Non-metal Braces - If you didn't get braces when you were in your teens, it is no longer too late! Not only can adults now be fixed with clear braces called "Clear Correct" and if you don't have a bite problem, it can even be fixed in 6 months with "6 Month Smiles".
Dental Technology #13 - Wrinkle Removers - No need to fly to Hollywood to remove wrinkles! "Botox" and "Juvederm" can be done during your office visit. Watch this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d35ziljtLeQ
