Ultrasonic Scalers Lift & Remove Tough Surface Stains
Using high-frequency waves, ultrasonic scalers allow us to lift and remove even the toughest stains from the surface of your teeth. Dr. Keer uses a piezoelectric ultrasonic scaler because it’s more comfortable and effective when compared with traditional hand scalers. It’s also fully adjustable for sensitive teeth.
Laser Dentistry Makes Treatments Faster & Comfortable
Dr. Keer uses soft-tissue lasers, including the Gemini™ diode laser, to treat gum disease and perform other minor surgical procedures, making patient treatment faster and more comfortable.
Digital X-Rays Are Faster & Emit Less Radiation
Digital x-rays are faster and emit about 80% less radiation than standard x-rays. Dr. Keer uses Schick Elite sensors for more accurate diagnosis and treatment, aiding in the early detection of cavities and the planning of surgical procedures.
Intraoral Cameras Provide a Live Image Feed for Patients
See your teeth from a new perspective thanks to our SOPROLIFE intraoral cameras, which show a live image feed of the inside of your mouth. Our intraoral cameras take photos and videos to help detect cavities invisible to the naked eye. The autofluorescence technology of SOPROLIFE helps Dr. Keer treat her patients more accurately and effectively.
Panoramic X-Rays Allow Us to See the Full Scope of Your Mouth
Digital panoramic x-rays give us a two-dimensional, panoramic view of your mouth. This technology allows Dr. Keer to see the entire scope of your mouth in just one x-ray!
Convenient Same-Day Dental Crowns Using CEREC®
Dr. Keer uses her CEREC® machine to make same-day dental crowns for you. It allows us to practice conservative but convenient dentistry for our patients.
The Dentapen Electronic Dental Syringe for Painless Injections
Dr. Keer uses an electronic dental syringe called a Dentapen to provide painless injections for our patients. Please come and see the difference it makes in our everyday practice!
DentaPure® Water Filtration System
Dr. Keer uses the DentaPure® water filtration system to purify the waterline used to rinse your mouth during dental checkups and procedures in our office. This reduces harmful bacteria exposure for both our patients and our staff. Containing isotopic iodine, DentaPure® doesn’t contain any proteins, making it safe and reducing the likelihood of an allergic reaction.
