Cone Beam CT Imaging

At First State Endodontics, we use the Carestream CS 8200, an advanced CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) system that provides highly detailed 3D images with exceptional accuracy and low radiation exposure. This technology allows us to precisely locate extra canals, detect hidden infections, and identify cracks that may not be visible on traditional X-rays. CBCT is also invaluable for diagnosing complex conditions and assessing prognostic factors to guide treatment planning. By improving diagnostic accuracy, CBCT helps us take a more conservative, minimally invasive approach while increasing the predictability of treatment outcomes.

Comfort and Technology

At First State Endodontics, we prioritize patient comfort with the A-dec 511 dental chair, one of the most advanced chairs available. Designed for ergonomic support, it provides superior cushioning and adjustability to keep patients comfortable during procedures. The chair’s smooth, quiet operation enhances the overall treatment experience, ensuring a relaxed environment.

In addition, we utilize electric handpieces rather than traditional air-driven ones. Electric handpieces operate with less noise and vibration, creating a quieter, more comfortable experience for patients. They also offer greater precision and efficiency, allowing for smoother and more controlled procedures. By incorporating these advanced technologies, we enhance patient comfort while improving treatment accuracy and effectiveness.

High-Quality Materials:

At First State Endodontics, we prioritize the use of the highest-quality materials to ensure the best long-term outcomes for our patients. We use biocompatible sealers, such as BC sealer, which promotes healing and optimal sealing of the root canal system. By integrating these advanced materials into our treatments, we enhance the longevity and success of endodontic procedures, providing durable and effective results.

Surgical Microscope

This advanced microscope gives us a highly magnified, detailed view of the inside of your tooth—something we simply can’t see with the naked eye or even regular dental loupes. With it, we can detect tiny cracks, hidden canals, or complex anatomy that might otherwise be missed.

That means more accurate treatment, better outcomes, and often less chance of needing retreatment down the road.

For you, this translates to more thorough care, greater comfort, and a higher chance of saving your natural tooth. It’s just one of the many ways we go the extra mile to provide you with the best possible care using the best available technology.
