Dr. Gordon firmly believes that through Technology, Dentistry can be safer, easier for the patient, less invasive, diagnosed sooner, more durable with an overall better result.
Dr. Gordon searches out to discover the latest and most innovative Technological Devices and Instruments that can be incorporated into his dental practice.
Dr. Gordon has many great technologies:
Clear Correct (the use of easily worn clear plastic trays (called: Aligners) that, within a short period of consistent wearing time allows for tooth repositioning) LESS EXPENSIVE THAN INVISALIGN ! Discus Dental SMART LightSpeed Endodontics: A whole new concept in Root Canal treatment. FINALLY, the tooth can be successfully cleaned and sealed in a shorter time period with more comfortable and more accurate results! Discus SMART Endodontics delivers the most revolutionary system. Sirona CEREC CAD/CAM (to construct (in-office) crowns, onlays, inlays in 1 appointment, therefore no temporary restoration, no second appointment, no second appointment anesthetic), Lime Technologies CMU-3 (European Designed and Constructed Dental Ozone Generator for many uses including the reversal of small areas of decay on adult and children's teeth, painlessly desensitizing teeth, treatment of Periodontal Gum Pockets, cold sore and canker sore treatment), PerioProtect Method (a set of easy to wear rubberized trays that, when filled with an antimicrobial agent, promotes gum line healing, reduction of gum line bleeding points) Kavo Dental Electric handpieces (quieter, faster, more powerful),
Kavo Rondoflex (Air/Water abrasion for treatment of small cavities without drilling), ZAP Lasers Styla (Soft-tissue Laser for gum treatments, cold sore and canker sore treatments),
Kavo DIAGNOdent (Painless laser to detect decay -- often sooner than visible or seen on x-rays),
DXIS Digital Panoramic Radiography (a single, very low x-ray dose, full mouth instant radiograph(x-ray) that is taken by a machine outside of the mouth -- therefore no gagging),
SUNI Digital Radiography (Intraoral digital sensors when we need a close-up view of a particular tooth or teeth or for Bitewing radiographs (x-rays), much lower x-ray dose than film, with instant results),
Beyond Insight (a handheld computer to determine the color of your teeth, which allows for more precise measurements and does not rely on human sight differences), Beyond LED curing light (a fast, small light used to harden tooth colored materials, DenMat Sapphire Light (a Plasma Arc light used to speed up in-office teeth whitening and also used to harden tooth colored materials), MidMark M-11 (High-Tech, state-of-the-art Autoclave Sterilizer) Flexview Systems (LCD television monitors that allow the patient to watch television with wireless headphones while dentistry is being performed) Pelton-Crane Water Filtration System (In-office complete state-of-the-art water purification system) Video DentalConcepts (Intraoral computer based camera system so you can see all of your teeth in clear images) Lester Dine Digital Camera (This system is set up to take Intra and Extra oral high-definition dental and smile photographs) Star Dental Scaler (this device allows our hygienist (Kyle) to remove calculus (tartar) and stain rapidly, with little, if any, discomfort) Parkell ProphyPencil (using a mint-flavored baking soda spray, this device is used to clean debris and stain from tooth surfaces) Todd Shatkin F.I.R.S.T. (Immediate placement Mini-Dental implants for crowns) Oraverse (a reversal agent for anesthetic, tests have shown that use of this solution can reduce the "numb" feeling in 1/2 the time) NTI (a simple to wear small plastic bite guard that has been show to clinically reduce Migraine Headaches)
