Dental Technologies Used in our Office
At Pediatric Dental Associates of Randolph we provide the latest in dental
technology that will care for your children's dental needs while providing the
least discomfort to all of our patients. From digital X-rays to invisible
orthodontics, Pediatric Dental of Randolph is your total dental care provider.
Digital X-Rays
Digital x-rays emit up to 90% less radiation than traditional cardboard film
x-rays. The larger image size allows dentists to better educate patients about
where problems. In addition, digital x-rays develop instantly, so you don't have
to wait for results.
Air Abrasion
This technique employs a miniature sandblaster to remove decay without the use
of heat or vibration. Using air abrasion for small to medium sized cavities can
be removed without the use of a drill or novocaine.
Madajet XL
The MadaJet XL is a needleless injection system, or pressure syringe. It shoots
a very fine stream of lidocaine (novocaine) into the gum with enough pressure to
numb the area instantaneously. Many patients feel no pain whatsoever when this
technique is used.
PakLight
When the PakLight is used, fillings set ultra-fast - within 5- 10 seconds of
application!
Isolight
The Isolight keeps the mouth dry while
dental work is being done, which is
essential for the placement of white
fillings. It also illuminates the area,
allowing the dentist to see well.
Sealants
Sealants are a plastic resin that a
dentist bonds into the grooves of the
chewing surface of a tooth as a means of
helping to prevent the formation of
tooth decay.
Invisalign
Instead of using braces, many patients'
teeth can be straightened by wearing a
series of invisible aligners. Visit
Invisalign
