Our Technology

We've all had a moment in our lives where something in our mouth just doesn't seem right. Perhaps it's the beginnings of a nagging toothache, a filling that has fallen out, or a little bit of blood in the sink after brushing. We know we should pick up the phone and call the dentist, but we procrastinate. Why are we reluctant to make that call?

Because previous experience tells us the dental visit is going to be unpleasant, possibly even painful, so we try to avoid it. But as anyone who has avoided small dental problems will tell you, they usually turn into much bigger problems that make you wish you had called the dentist sooner.

Dr. Alberto Castaneda of Shawnee, KS wants you to know that the old days of painful dental treatments and hours sitting in the dental chair are long gone. Today's technology has vastly advanced routine dental care and restorative treatments to the point where a single visit may be all that is needed and very little discomfort occurs. Technology such as:

• Digital x-rays you and Dr. Castaneda can instantly view together on a monitor
• Diagnodent for the detection and early treatment of cavities
• YAG Laser for correcting periodontal (gum) issues
• The Intra-Oral camera to easily view oral issues the eye cannot see
• Wand VibraJect which has erased the need for painful needle injections
• CEREC, a machine that can create veneers, crowns and implants in just one visit
• Microscope
• T-Scan system is used to measure dental occlusal forces and quantify the balance of a patient's bite

You've only got one mouth and one set of permanent teeth. Don't ignore your dental health out of fear. Give Dr. Castaneda's office a call today to schedule your free consultation and bring your beautiful, healthy smile out of hiding.
