Advanced Technologies We Utilize Include:
Digital X-rays
Digital x-rays are faster than conventional x-rays, and they are comfortable for you. They also aid us to accurately diagnose your oral health needs. All with up to 90% less radiation exposure. We employ digital imaging, as well, to show you how fabulous your new and improved smile could look, before treatment even begins. With no chemical processing needed, digital technology helps us do our part to keep the environment safe, too.
Intraoral Camera
Using this camera, we can give you a “tour” of your mouth on a TV screen (which is really cool). We also use the camera to guide you through your dental diagnosis and treatment options. This is helpful in keeping our patients at the center of their treatment plans. We want you to feel informed every step of the way, so you can make smart choices for your oral health and smile.
Dental Magnification Loupes
Excellent dental care requires exacting precision and attention to detail. We must work in very small spaces and must be accurate to a fraction of a millimeter. To help us, our doctors and hygienists use special prismatic magnification glasses, or “loupes.”
Tooth-Colored Fillings
Composite fillings can be adhesively held in place or “bonded.” Because they can be bonded to teeth, composite fillings allow for more conservative preparations where less healthy tooth structure is removed. This often results in smaller fillings than that of amalgam (silver fillings), and they are more natural looking. The tooth-colored material is cured with a special light and the surface is shaped and polished to match the tooth, rendering the final restoration virtually undetectable to the eye and very natural feeling.
Isolite System
Happy patients spend less time in the chair with more comfort, so we use the Isolite® System. This system has a soft and flexible mouthpiece to shield your tongue and cheek during procedures. It has a light to illuminate your mouth from the inside, so treatments are shadowless and more efficient. AND it has a place for you to rest your jaw. It also eliminates the need for cotton rolls and rinse breaks. All because your comfort is paramount, and we think you’ll especially appreciate the faster treatment times. Come in and experience the difference!
Dental Implants
Many of the millions of people who are missing teeth struggle with ill-fitting, uncomfortable dentures or retainers with false teeth. If you know what this feels like and are ready for a solution, we have one for you! We can give your smile a second chance through dental implant restorations. Implants can resolve the practical and social problems associated with dentures. They are effective in stabilizing dentures to fit better, feel better, look better, and chew better. Healthy implants can even prevent the bone loss that often occurs after tooth loss.
In addition to denture stabilizing, implants can be used in some crown and bridge applications, as well as single-tooth replacements. Call us to find out more about how this wonderful option in restorative dentistry could change your life!
Professional Teeth Whitening
In addition to giving you the benefit of a cleaner looking and more attractive smile, whiter teeth can also enhance your confidence and self-esteem. As a bonus, whitening can lead to healthier teeth because when your teeth look better, you tend to take better care of them to keep them looking terrific. Ask us about brightening your smile at your next visit. We offer both convenient take home whitening solutions (with custom trays) and powerful in-office ZOOM! whitening.
Invisalign®
If you think clear and removable braces sound perfect, a straight smile could be yours soon with Invisalign®. Through a series of clear Aligners®,this comfortable and removable alternative to traditional braces straightens your teeth with noticeable results but without the noticeable bars and brackets of metal braces. The Aligners are changed approximately every two weeks to straighten your teeth step by step. AND for your ease and convenience, the Aligners can be taken out while you eat and brush your teeth. Call today to schedule your Invisalign consultation.
The Lumineers® Veneers System
Lumineers® are the comfortable, conservative way to a beautiful smile! Imagine what it would be like to have the smile of your dreams... This is possible with the Lumineers® porcelain veneers system. In as few as two or three appointments, Dr. Sitaram can create this kind of smile for you – a smile that will radiate confidence and joy. AND by using this system, we can apply the thin, custom-made, permanent veneers to the front side of your teeth without extensive preparation, and in most cases without injections. No kidding! Call us about your free cosmetic consultation.
Sedation Options
Dental anxiety is not unusual, and people of any age can experience such feelings. We will adjust our care to meet your needs, so you can receive the dental treatment you desire at a pace that feels comfortable to you. We also offer nitrous oxide (laughing gas) and oral conscious sedation to help you relax. Please share your feelings and concerns with us, so we can accommodate you and make your dental visits as anxiety- and pain-free as we can.
Modern Dental Comforts & Conveniences to Keep Your Smile – & You – Healthy!

For Your Comfort:
Flatscreen TVs in Treatment Rooms
We think you’ll really like the option to watch your favorite DVD during your dental visit on our TV screens that can move above you while you lay back. Come in and see how you can feel more at ease while receiving the treatment you need. You may even forget you’re at the dentist.
Pillows, Blankets, & Hot Scented Towels
We want you to feel at home in our dental offices, so we’ve incorporated amenities such as pillows, blankets, and hot scented towels to wipe and sooth your face and hands. There are complimentary refreshments in our reception area, a leg massager, and candles throughout our office, too, because every detail of your visit with us is important.
