Technologies at Our Dental Clinic
At Aura Clinique Dentaire Elite, the technology we use helps to inform treatment planning and make your dental appointments run smoothly. Because we can display digital X-rays and scans on the monitors in our treatment rooms, we can show you any issues in your mouth and walk you through your treatment plan.
Our goal is to provide patients with dental care while making sure they are fully informed about their oral health. Dental technology helps us do that.
Digital X-Rays
Digital X-rays use digital sensors instead of traditional photographic X-ray film. They produce highly detailed computer images of the teeth and gums, as well as other oral structures and conditions, allowing your dentist to examine parts of the mouth that are not visible to the naked eye.
Panoramic X-Rays
Panoramic X-rays create a single image of your entire mouth. This image is a flat representation of the teeth, upper and lower jaws, the nasal and sinus structures, and the temporomandibular joints (TMJ). These X-rays are used to plan treatments for dental implants and extractions.
Oral Cancer Screening Device
The VELscope® is an oral cancer screening device that helps dentists identify abnormalities and diseases in the mouth. Using fluorescence visualisation technology, it can be performed in-office during routine exams and under normal lighting conditions in about two minutes.
