When you seek care at our office, you are assured that Dr. Bishop and her staff utilize the latest in technology to enhance the quality and fit of your dental care.
Dr Bishop uses magnification eyewear to improve her visualizaiotn and to create dental restorations with incredibly precise fit and finish.
Dr. Bishop chooses carefully which and when radiographs are made. There are many guidelines that we follow. Radiographs allow us to see everything we cannot see with our own eyes. Radiographs enable us to detect cavities in between your teeth, determine bone level, and analyze the health of your bone. We can also examine the roots and nerves of teeth, diagnose lesions such as cysts or tumors, as well as assess damage when trauma occurs.
Dental radiographs are invaluable aids in diagnosing, treating, and maintaining dental health. Exposure time for dental radiographs is extremely minimal. Dr. Bishop utilizes Digital Imaging Radiographs within the office. With digital imaging, exposure time is about 1/8 of traditional radiography. Digital imaging allows us to see valuable diagnostic information within 3 seconds of the exposure. We can see conditons better because we can view the image on a computer monitor instead of on a 1/2 inch piece of film.
Digital radiography allows us to store patient x-rays, and enables us to quickly and easily transfer them to specialists or insurance companies.
Many patients are familiar with the latest technology and are comfortable with high tech tools. Computers and TV screens are their primary method of information processing.
Dr. Bishop utilizes intraoral camera technology that helps enhance your understanding of your diagnosis. An intraoral camera is a very small camera - in some cases, just a few millimeters long. An intraoral camera allows our practice to view clear, precise images of your mouth, teeth and gums, in order for us to accurately make a diagnosis. With clear, defined, enlarged images, you see details that may be missed by standard mirror examinations. This can mean faster diagnosis with less chair-time for you!
Intra oral cameras also enable our practice to save your images in our office computer to provide a permanent record of treatments. These images can be printed for you, other specialists, and your lab or insurance companies.
