Forms of Advanced Dental Technology We Provide
EdgePro Laser Technology:
We are one of the few endodontic practices in Monmouth and Middlesex Counties that has this new technology. EdgePRO™ provides outstanding cleaning, debridement and disinfection by removing infected tissue, biofilm and smear layer killing up to 99% of bacteria commonly found in the root canal. This allows for improved outcomes, less complications, and faster relief.
Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT):
This advanced 3D imaging technology provide the highest level of diagnostic accuracy and treatment precision. It allows for an in-depth view of tooth structures, surrounding bone, and nerves. It ensures an accurate diagnosis and a tailored treatment plan.
Why Do We Use CBCT in Endodontics?
CBCT scans give us a clear, three-dimensional view of complex root canal systems, bone structure, and nearby nerves. With this information, we can:
- Identify hidden canals, fractures, or infections that may not appear on standard X-rays
- Evaluate previous root canal treatments to determine the cause of persistent pain or failure
- Plan surgical procedures like apicoectomies with pinpoint accuracy
- Assess bone density and anatomy for better treatment planning and outcomes
Zeiss Surgical Operating Microscope:
Every treatment room is equipped with high-powered operating microscopes that is used for ALL of our treatments. It is important for enhanced visibility of the roots and canals, allowing precision during detailed procedures. This tool is especially critical for microsurgery, such as apicoectomy, ensuring the best outcomes.
Digital Radiography:
Fast, Safe, and Accurate Imaging. At Excel Endodontics, your safety and comfort are our top priorities—which is why our office is fully equipped with digital radiography (digital X-rays). This advanced imaging technology allows us to capture highly detailed images of your teeth and surrounding structures quickly and with minimal radiation exposure.
Benefits of Digital X-Rays
- Lower Radiation Exposure: Digital X-rays use up to 80–90% less radiation than traditional film X-rays, making them a safer choice for our patients.
- Immediate Results: Images are available instantly on our monitors, so there is no waiting for film to develop—your diagnosis and treatment planning can begin right away.
- Enhanced Image Quality: High-resolution digital images can be magnified and adjusted for clarity, helping us spot even the smallest issues with greater accuracy.
- Easier Sharing & Storage: Digital files can be securely stored and shared with your general dentist or other specialists as needed, ensuring seamless continuity of care.
- Dental Photography: Dental photography enables us to document treatment progress and communicate findings more effectively, ensuring clarity for both patients and referring dentists.
- ASI Carts: Our fully equipped ASI carts streamline procedures by keeping all necessary tools organized and easily accessible, improving efficiency during treatments.
