Microscope Based Endodontics

Enhanced Visualization and Documentation

In our commitment to delivering exceptional endodontic care, at Tri-City Endodontics we utilize the Dental Operating Microscope (DOM), a cornerstone of modern endodontic treatment that magnifies and illuminates the treatment area, providing unmatched clarity and detail. It also allows us to take high quality photographs to document your treatment for education and for improved communication with your general dentist.



Greater Accuracy and Tooth Preservation

This advanced optical technology allows for the precise identification of canal orifices, minute fractures, and complex root canal anatomy that might otherwise be overlooked with the naked eye. By enhancing visibility, the DOM significantly increases the precision of each procedure, from diagnosis to the completion of treatment, improving thorough cleaning, shaping, and sealing of the root canals. The microscope is also provides superior lighting and ergonomic to more predictably restore badly broken down teeth. This precision not only improves outcomes but also helps us preserve more of the natural tooth structure, promoting healing and longer-lasting results. It also allows us to operate in ergonomic positions so that we are not tired and can provide everyone with quality care, even at the end of the day.


Improved Comfort and Patient Experience

Emphasizing patient comfort, the Dental Operating Microscope enables more efficient, less invasive procedures, reducing treatment time and enhancing patient experience. Trust in our expertise and the transformative power of the Dental Operating Microscope to provide the highest standard of endodontic care tailored to your needs


Imaging

Tri-City Endodontics has the very best radiographic imaging in dentistry. Digital radiograph sensors are used to take x-rays and this has several advantages. The image quality produced is excellent, while the radiation dose is greatly reduced compared to conventional non-digital x-rays. In addition, no development of the x-rays is required and the images are available to view on our computer monitors just in a few seconds. I will spend the time to discuss your x-rays with you so you understand any potential problems that may exist.

To supplement the conventional x-rays, we utilize a cone-beam computed tomography scanner (or CBCT) to take very powerful 3-D images when needed. This unit allows me to see your teeth and surrounding bone in greater detail, which aids in diagnosis as well as during treatment. Once again these images can be displayed on our computer monitor and I can show you the various aspects of the imaging to allow you to visualize any issues with your teeth. In addition, if you or your dentist would like a copy of the 3-D imaging, we can quickly make you a disc with the images available to view at any time.

CBCT 3 Dimensional Technology

Focused field cone beam computerized tomography (CBCT) allows complete visualization in all three planes of the tooth/bone with ultra low radiation. A typical CBCT scan produces about the same amount of radiation as 3 digital dental x-rays. 

Although much information can be obtained from a quick glance at a 2 dimensional radiograph, a CBCT 3 dimensional scan must be properly oriented and manipulated to be able to extract the valuable information from it. Dr. Parhar has been using CBCT imaging for 8 years and has a great deal of experience in understanding the imaging, which is paramount to gaining accurate information to aid in diagnosis and treatment.
