Many people fear dentistry until they experience the gentle process of air abrasion and micro - dentistry. This technique takes the emphasis off of pain and fear and transforms it to conservative, healthy and esthetic dental care.

Air Abrasion, Alternative to the Drill: The old method let decay get to a more advanced stage before it was detectable.
Often, fissures are narrower than the explorer tip, making traditional diagnosis difficult.

With New Micro - Dentistry techniques: With new Micro - Dentistry techniques we can catch those cavities much sooner causing little or no discomfort to our patients. Here is how the new method works.
Finding and treating decay as soon as possible
Removing stain with a Micro Abrasion Unit
* A Micro Abrasive Unit sprays a gentle spray of fine powder and air, that removes only the tooth decay, leaving the solid tooth structure intact.
