Digital Dental Imaging:
A dental x-ray is a diagnostic tool used in dentistry. They help the dentist see hidden tissue damage and infection. The progress in technology is allowing us to become digital. Modern technology is offering us computer-generated images. Digital imaging is becoming the standard of care. They offer a variety of benefits over traditional imaging. Such as an instant image with enhanced and better quality. Digital ones have lesser radiation, unlike traditional ones. Moreover, they are environment-friendly as they produce no waste.
The digital imaging technology that we use is the best in town by Sirona. We can share your dental and orthodontic records with the help of a click. This allows for better coordination and communication. We believe in providing you with the best imaging possible.

They use this model to customize your orthodontic appliances. The appliance formed offers a better patient experience. Along with a faster turnaround, the appliance has a better fit.
AcceleDent
AcceleDent is a hands-free device designed to encourage faster tooth movement. We use this treatment in addition to braces and aligners. The treatment is very simple to use and does not require an office visit. It will help you straighten your teeth at a faster pace. Apart from that, it will make your treatment more comfortable.
AcceleDent uses SoftPulse™ Technology. The idea behind it is the use of small vibrations, also called micro-pulses. These vibrations gently facilitate a faster tooth movement in your orthodontic treatment. This speeds up the remodeling process of the bones in your mouth, thus speeding up tooth movement. AcceleDent allows your teeth to move up to 40% faster than traditional orthodontic movements. AcceleDent delivers you a better experience while working with your current orthodontic treatment.
PROPEL®
PROPEL is a revolutionary strategy that enables bone remodeling, allowing teeth to shift into their correct position faster and more regularly. This is a device that works by micro-tears in the bone through the gums. In particular, it works by stimulating the surrounding bone. It works alongside the patient’s own biology. This results in faster tooth movement. As a result, the patient completes their treatment in lesser time.
On the other hand, it offers you fewer treatment visits with exceptional results. Moreover, this is a simple procedure that takes only a few minutes in total. Additionally, you can immediately go back to your daily routine with no limitations.
