What We Offer
Alongside your dental health, your comfort is also a top priority for our staff. The technology that we offer is safe for kids, teens, adults, and elderly patients alike. We will walk you through the process from start to finish so that you know what to expect. And of course, if you have questions about anything, please let them be known!
Restorative dentistry, orthodontics, and prosthodontics (creating customized appliances like crowns and bridges) all utilize dental technology.
At our practice, you’ll find:
iTero scanner – This is a device that produces detailed, 3D images of a patient’s smile and the surrounding structures. The scanner that’s used to do this is a handheld device that is moved around the mouth to account for multiple angles. The images made are sent to a computer that dentists can study to understand a patient’s case.
Self-ligating braces – Unique dental lasers, 3D printers, and CAM (Computer-Aided Manufacturing) can all be used to create this type of braces. Self-ligating braces are similar to traditional metal ones, but they don’t use elastics.
Clear aligners – Invisalign trays can also be produced using 3D or CAM technology. Biocompatible liquid resin is used to fabricate the layers of the trays, so they’re safe to wear. As a result, patients won’t have to wait to receive their aligners; they’ll be able to visit their orthodontist in Santa Clarita and acquire them in the same appointment.
Orthodontic Diode Laser Spectralase 980 – The application of the Diode Laser in treatments is notably efficient, ensuring swift recovery. Tissue removal becomes a quicker and smoother process. In the course of your orthodontic treatment, we might suggest incorporating a soft-tissue dental laser for specific purposes such as enhancing the aesthetics by reshaping gingival (gum) tissue. Additionally, it can be employed to expose or uncover impacted teeth, facilitating their expedited eruption.
LightScalpel CO2 Laser – The CO2 Laser by LightScalpel minimizes bleeding, lowers infection risk, shortens surgical duration, and results in reduced swelling and discomfort. This leads to a quicker recovery and improved outcomes! It can be used in a variety of soft-tissue surgeries such as treating a frenectomy or gingivectomy.
Incorporating dental technology into various treatments can significantly streamline the process and ensure that the devices properly meet the patient’s oral dimensions.

FAQs
How does the iTero scanner work, and what does it help with?
The iTero scanner is a handheld device that captures detailed, full-mouth 3D images by scanning your teeth from various angles. These visuals help with planning orthodontic treatments, crafting precise aligners and appliances, and improving workflow efficiency.
How do self-ligating braces differ from traditional metal braces?
Self-ligating braces eliminate elastic ties by using built-in clips to hold the arch wire, reducing friction and making adjustments quicker and more comfortable compared to traditional braces.
Is dental technology safe for children, teens, adults, and elderly patients?
Yes, there is technologically advanced dental technology of any vintage to provide a comfortable and secure visit. Clinicians direct patients through each process to provide clarity and confidence.
What types of treatments benefit from using soft-tissue dental lasers?
Soft-tissue lasers are ideal for gum reshaping (gingival contouring), exposing impacted teeth, reducing tissue overgrowth, and improving gum health around braces, enhancing precision and healing.
How does Orthodontic Diode Laser Spectralase 980 help with recovery?
The Spectralase 980 diode laser enables quicker, smoother tissue removal with minimal bleeding, which accelerates recovery and improves aesthetics. It also enhances healing while reducing discomfort.
What are the benefits of using 3D imaging in dental treatments?
3D imaging enables highly accurate impressions, detailed treatment planning, and better patient communication. It enhances treatment accuracy, reduces remakes, and saves chair time.
