What Is Computerized Cosmetic Dentistry?
“Cosmetic”
dentistry is a familiar term. It means improvements made in the appearance
of teeth and it also means improvements in the health of the mouth because
proper form establishes proper function. When you look better, you feel
better.
“Computerized” dentistry is less familiar. It refers to the use of technologically advanced dental equipment and materials: lasers, intra oral cameras, digital x-rays, air abrasion and the like, all of which can be handled in a one-stop single visit. It combines speed, accuracy and preservation to improve patient comfort and health.
Dr. Ross and his team also think it's important that you are involved from the beginning of the decision-making to the end of the process. They use the imaging tools at their disposal to help you visualize the final results. You will be able to participate in the choices at hand to repair and restore your smile.
“Computerized cosmetic dentistry” is practiced by Stuart Ross DMD of Washington DC. He is a former President of the Academy of Computerized Dentistry and a former senior trainer of other dentists in the use of high tech equipment. Dr. Ross was an “early adopter” of computer-based advances in modern dental techniques. In particular, he uses the Siemens-developed CEREC System (SIRONA) in which high-strength ceramic material is milled under precise computer control.
Result: Less drilling. Fewer, and shorter, visits to the dentist. Greater comfort. The most natural appearance and tooth color. Long-lasting results. Metal-free and healthy. A pleasant experience.
