The Top 3 Modern Dental Procedures You Should Know About

For years, people have been afraid of going to the dentist. But things have changed, and here at Stony Brook Family and Laser Dentistry we have adopted all of the latest dental technologies in order to ensure that our patients don’t have to fear a visit in the least. Long Island has long been a hub of technological and cultural advances, from Suffolk County to Queens and beyond. That’s why we’re so proud to offer all of these latest procedures. If you’re unsure about just what modern procedures are out there and why they’re so much better, we think taking a closer look at the best technologies and procedures could change your mind about the dentist.

With that in mind, here are the top 3 modern dental procedures and how they’ve changed things for the better.

• Clear Braces – Braces have been a part of the dental world for years. By straightening teeth and improving smiles, they’ve had a major impact on the lives of millions. But clear braces eliminate much of the discomfort, are nearly invisible, remove to make it easy to clean teeth, gums, and the braces, and are very comparable in price to traditional braces.

• Laser Dental Procedures – Thanks to breakthroughs in laser technology, the use of laser procedures is more effective than ever before. Laser procedures can reduce cold sore pain, treat periodontal disease, detect cavities, repair cavities, and much more. And they do so without pain or discomfort – plus without drills or shots.

• Mini Dental Implants – Dental implants have been used for years, but have involved invasive procedures, long recovery times, multiple trips to the dentist, pain, and more. Mini dental implants are a solution that eliminates most of those issues. They can be completed in a few hours, have almost no recovery period, and still provide great results.

These procedures are just a small sampling of what kind of dental procedures are out there today. From things like teeth whitening to sedation dentistry, going to the dentist has come a long way over the last several decades. No matter what your specific situation may be, there are numerous options out there that can speed up your treatment and reduce or even eliminate pain entirely.
