Periolase™—Dr. Amalfitano eradicates gum disease with this laser during the Laser Assisted New Attachment Procedure. (LANAP®) The Periolase™ dental laser is able to target and destroy only diseased tissue, leaving healthy gum tissue unharmed during the procedure. Its bio-stimulating setting reduces the inflammation and bleeding that are common with traditional forms of gum surgery.
iPlus™ Biolase—This all-tissue laser cuts through hard and soft tissue in a fraction of the time using painless light energy and water instead of painful friction.
iTero™ digital impressions—Take impressions digitally and say goodbye to uncomfortable trays and messy putty.
Piezosurgery—This new technique for cutting bone to modify the jaw to receive a dental implant without damaging soft tissue uses ultra-sonic micro-vibrations. It is a precise and comfortable procedure.
Digital x-rays—Reduce radiation exposure by 90 percent and cut down on chair time with digital x-rays. No more waiting for film to be developed or mounted. Digital x-rays are enlarged chairside for easy treatment planning and co-diagnosis.
