High Tech Care with Your Dentist in Kansas City, MO
Technology has made just about every aspect of your life better, faster, and easier. You can manage your whole life from anywhere in the world with just your phone, and cars continue to use less and less fuel while going farther than ever. Fortunately, this progress has also touched modern-day dentistry. The newest technology enables Dr Anderson to diagnose you faster, treat you painlessly, and provide you an overall more positive experience. Here are just a few of the tools we use every day to provide top-quality dental care that only continues to improve.

Digital X-Rays
Digital x-rays are an improvement over traditional film-based x-rays in just about every way imaginable. They are much faster and can instantly display the images on a chairside monitor, and also emit significantly less radiation (50-90% less). This is safer for both doctor and patient alike. Plus, the image can be replicated and stored infinitely, making them ideal for both insurance purposes and patient education.
Intraoral Camera
This pen sized camera is revolutionary for dentistry because it enables your dentist to show you a video of what they are seeing in real time. This takes a lot of uncertainty, and therefore fear, out of dentistry for many people. Dr. Anderson and Tracy can simply show you what they are seeing rather than just describing it. They can point out issues and discuss the solutions with you so you can have a better understanding of your dental care. This enlarged image of your mouth also makes it much easier for your doctor to spot potential problems.
Digital Imaging
Wouldn’t it be great if you could see what your smile would look like after a particular treatment? That’s exactly what digital imaging can do. If you are considering a cosmetic treatment, Invisalign, or a restorative procedure, digital imaging enables you to see what the end result will be. It works by manipulating digital pictures of your teeth with an imaging program, and lets you truly know what to expect from a treatment. The more informed you are, the better you will feel about your decisions, and that leads to an overall better experience.
