Technology That Works For You

Better imaging and precision tools mean better diagnosis and more accurate treatment planning from the very first appointment.

Less invasive tools mean shorter chair time, less discomfort during procedures, and significantly faster healing afterward.

Transparency

We show you your scans and intraoral images chairside so you always fully understand your oral health and your options.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is digital X-ray radiation safe?
Yes. Digital X-rays use up to 90% less radiation than traditional film and are considered extremely safe for routine dental use at any age.
What is the difference between panoramic and cone beam X-rays?
Panoramic images give a 2D full-mouth overview — great for general assessment. Cone Beam CT provides 3D, high-resolution imaging used for precise surgical and implant planning where depth and structure matter.
Will I see my scans during my visit at Astra Dental?
Yes. We review all X-rays and intraoral images with you chairside so you can fully understand your oral health situation and your treatment options before we proceed with anything.
Can laser dentistry replace traditional surgery?
In many cases, yes — especially for soft-tissue procedures. Laser treatment is faster, quieter, and often more comfortable than traditional surgical methods, often requiring little to no anesthesia.
