3D Imaging
3D imaging technology offers detailed, three-dimensional images of your teeth, jawbone, and surrounding structures. With 3D imaging, our team can visualize your dental anatomy from multiple angles, leading to more accurate diagnoses and personalized treatment plans. This also reduces the need for additional diagnostic procedures and improves treatment precision and predictability.
CariFree®
Dental caries (cavities) and tooth decay are common, however, if left untreated, they can lead to discomfort, infection, and tooth loss. Fortunately, we have a solution for you. We offer CariFree, a wonderful line of products that help reduce bacteria and acidity in the mouth and bring pH back into balance. This helps reduce the incidence of dental caries, preserve your natural tooth structure, and promote long-term oral health and wellness.
Digital X-rays
Our digital X-rays offer a safer, more efficient alternative to traditional film X-rays. They provide instant high-quality images with lower radiation exposure. These images can be viewed and enhanced on a computer screen in real-time, allowing for quicker and more accurate diagnosis of your dental conditions. Digital X-rays provide you with better insight into your state of oral health and allow you to take a more active role in your oral health decisions.
Intraoral Camera
Unlike traditional dental exams, our intraoral cameras offer close-up views of your teeth and gums, allowing for detailed examination and early detection of dental problems. The intraoral camera also facilitates better communication between you and our team, enhances treatment planning, and empowers you to make informed decisions about your dental care.
Laser Cavity Detection
Similar to the intraoral camera, the only way we used to be able to detect cavities was when they became visible to the naked eye. Today with the help of our DIAGNOdent™ laser technology we can safely illuminate areas of decay before they become visible. This allows us to treat decay while it’s still in its early stages, conserving more of your natural, healthy teeth for longer.
Laser Dentistry
Our laser dentistry utilizes advanced laser technology to perform a wide range of dental procedures with minimal discomfort, bleeding, and downtime. Lasers deliver precise energy to target specific tissues while minimizing damage to surrounding areas, resulting in faster healing. Our services include Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure, or LANAP®.
Whether for gum disease therapy, cavity detection, soft tissue surgeries, or teeth whitening our laser dentistry offers reduced discomfort during and after procedures, minimized risk of infection, and precise treatment outcomes.
YOMI®
YOMI® robotic-assisted surgery offers a precise, predictable, and minimally invasive dental implant placement for replacing missing teeth. It combines advanced robotics and computer technology to assist your Veranda Dentistry team in planning and executing your implant surgery with unmatched accuracy and precision. YOMI® robotic-assisted surgery reduces the risk of complications, minimizes trauma to surrounding tissues, shortens healing times, and improves the longevity and success of your dental implant treatment.
CEREC® Same Day Restorations
Traditional dental restorations may require multiple appointments and temporary restorations, leading to inconvenience and discomfort for patients. Fortunately, with CEREC® same-day restorations, we can utilize CAD/CAM technology to design, fabricate, and place custom-made dental restorations in a single appointment. This helps you save time, experience reduced discomfort, and achieve durable, natural-looking results that blend seamlessly with your smile.
