One of the things that sets Lakemoor Dental apart as a premier dental practice is our use of leading-edge technology. By leveraging state-of-the-art equipment, our doctors can diagnose and treat oral conditions more accurately and efficiently, providing beautiful, functional smiles that last a lifetime. Our advanced dental implant and preventive technology include AI-assisted charting, the dandy scanner, 3D Cone Beam CT scans, CEREC® CAD/CAM restorations, digital imaging, and laser therapy, among other tools.
AI-Assisted Charting
Our AI-assisted dental charting system leverages artificial intelligence to enhance diagnostic accuracy and efficiency. By analyzing X-rays, intraoral scans, and patient records, the AI can identify potential issues such as cavities, periodontal concerns, and alignment problems faster than traditional methods. This technology allows our dentists to create precise, detailed treatment plans and focus more time on patient care. Additionally, AI-assisted charting improves documentation, reduces human error, and ensures consistent, up-to-date patient records across all offices, supporting our commitment to advanced, high-quality dental care.
Dandy Scanner
The Dandy Scanner is a state-of-the-art intraoral scanning system that captures highly accurate, 3D digital impressions of your teeth and gums in just minutes. This eliminates the need for traditional messy molds and provides a more comfortable, faster, and precise experience for patients. The digital models produced by the Dandy Scanner are used for crowns, bridges, implants, aligners, and other restorative procedures, ensuring a perfect fit and optimal function. By integrating the Dandy Scanner into our workflow, our doctors can plan treatments with greater accuracy and predictability, reducing chair time and improving outcome.
Cone Beam CT Scan
The Cone Beam CT scan is one of our greatest technological assets. Designed to be safer, more efficient, and more effective than a traditional medical CT scan, Cone Beam technology focuses energy directly into the treatment area while minimizing your radiation exposure by about 200 times. After covering your entire body with a lead apron for protection, the scan will rotate 360 degrees around your head, taking 30 images of your upper and lower jaws. Each 3D digital image can be manipulated and segmented into half-millimeter sections and used to create a treatment plan for dental implant placement, bone grafting, and pathology treatment.
CEREC® CAD/CAM
CEREC® CAD/CAM represents the pinnacle of modern dentistry. This digital system allows us to create precise, natural-looking crowns in a single visit—eliminating the need for temporaries or multiple appointments. The result is a faster, less invasive, and highly durable solution for restoring your smile.
Electronic Dental Records
Our paperless electronic dental records streamline every aspect of patient care. Integrated into our practice management system, electronic charting, digital imaging, and chairside case presentation enhance efficiency while keeping all patient information accurate, accessible, and secure.
Digital X-Rays
Digital X-rays offer a huge advantage in early detection and preventive services. Advanced image manipulation and analysis, for example, allows your doctor to detect early stages of gum disease through recognition of bone level changes, or by evaluating the results against a previous treatment.
Intraoral Camera
Our intraoral camera provides a detailed, tooth-by-tooth video examination of your mouth. This allows patients to see exactly what the dentist sees, improving understanding of dental conditions and enabling more informed treatment decisions.
Laser Therapy
Our laser technology offers a non-surgical approach to treating periodontal disease. After scaling and root planing, lasers reduce harmful bacteria and remove infected tissue in the periodontal pocket. This promotes natural healing, allowing gums to reattach to bone and restore a healthy, infection-free state.
Advanced Cavity Detection
We utilize the Logicon Caries Detector from Carestream, a cutting-edge system proven to identify up to 20% more cavities than traditional methods. This technology allows our team to detect decay at its earliest stages and guide patients through a comprehensive, precise diagnostic process.
