Our office is proud to offer CEREC (Chair side Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics). We use CEREC to create beautiful, natural, and extremely durable ceramic restorations. After conventional preparation, your tooth will be coated with a reflective powder. CEREC uses a state-of-the-art digital 3D camera to get accurate measurements for a digital impression. That means you don't have to wait while a tray of impression goop hardens in your mouth. A precisely shaped impression is then diamond-cut out of ceramic material and bonded to your tooth. Now you can have restorations with a natural look and feel - all in one visit!

We also utilize a new state-of-the-art tool known as a diagnodent which uses a laser to determine the exact amount and depth of bacteria in the tooth structure which allows us to be conservative as possible when planning restorative needs. The Diagnodent is a highly effective and reliable tool in preventative dentistry.
The wand is a device that has revolutionized the way that we numb our patients. Most pain from a "shot" is the result of the volume of anesthetic pushing on the tissue, but with the wand, a computer controls the rate that the anesthetic solution is dispensed. This virtually eliminates the usual discomfort individuals feel.

Digital X-rays are images that are taken digitally and loaded into a computer file especially for a specific patient. The advantages of digital x-rays include exposure to lower radiation (only 10% of the radiation of traditional x-rays). They can also be enlarged to the full size of a computer screen, allowing the doctor to have improved viewing ability for analysis and diagnosis.

We now know that oral cancer claims one life every hour in the U.S. - and the mortality rate has not changed significantly in over 40 years. This disease is of great concern to Drs. Sarant and Sarantos because oral cancer is very treatable when discovered early.
Because early detection is the key to successful outcomes, this practice has incorporated ViziLite, an FDA-cleared medical technology for oral screening to ensure that you receive the most comprehensive oral cancer screening possible. ViziLite is to oral screening what mammogram, PAP smear and the PSA test are to breast, cervical and prostrate screenings.
ViziLite is a simple, painless and non-invasive instrument that improves the doctor's ability to visualize, evaluate and monitor suspicious areas at their earliest stages. ViziLite helps the doctor see what he/she can't see with the unaided eye.
After a standard visual and physical oral cancer examination, ViziLite gives us the highest level of confidence that I'm providing my patients with the most thorough oral cancer screening available. We offer this ehanced oral cancer examination to you annually. If you have any questions about ViziLite, please call our office.

The Isolite Dryfield Illuminator Helps Us Provide Better Care
In our practice, we utilize the award-winning Isolite Dryfield Illuminator to improve our dentistry and our patients' safety and comfort. With Isolite, procedures are quicker, so patients spend less time in the chair. Isolite also increases patient safety and comfort. Instead of straining to keep the mouth open, the patient's mouth is comfortably held open with a soft bite block, so the patient experiences less jaw fatigue. Instead of having to ask for suction during the procedure, the patients' oral cavity is continuously freed of excess fluids. In addition, the Isolite provides an added measure of safety by protecting the patient's tongue, cheek and throat throughout the dental procedure. This also helps protect the patient from the mercury released during amalgam removal. It's a great new innovation in dentistry and we are proud to offer it to our patients.
