Zoom! Teeth Whitening

Having clean, white teeth is important for self-esteem and making a good impression. Over time, coffee, wine and other foods can create stains on your teeth. When you’re ready to brighten your smile, ask us about Zoom! Whitening.

Following your procedure, you may also be provided with touch-up trays to maintain the results. At Family Dental Wellness, we’re experts at Zoom! Whitening, so call us today to schedule an appointment.

CEREC 1-Visit Crowns

CEREC dental restorations offers a quick, accurate, and safe way to restore teeth with crowns, inlays, onlays, veneers, fillings and more. As a healthier option, this procedure uses ceramic material that is durable and easy to bond to the existing tooth structure. The CEREC procedure is completed in one visit – only one to two hours. With CEREC technology, dental work that once required multiple visits can be completed and placed in a single easy appointment without the need to rely on temporary solutions.

Your restoration will be created using computer-aided design using advanced techniques. The result will be a customized restoration that matches your tooth structure and tooth color. Call us today to see if a CEREC restoration is right for you.

What is CEREC Technology?

CEREC stands for Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramic. It is a method of restoring your teeth right in the office using computer-aided design and manufacturing technology! Using CEREC technology, we can fabricate crowns, inlays/onlays, fixed bridges, dental implants, dentures, and other dental solutions. While a patient's eligibility is determined on a case-by-case basis, many people appreciate the convenience, accuracy, and efficiency that CEREC technology brings.

The CEREC process consists of three steps:

Scan: First, we will numb and prepare the tooth that requires restoration. We will then scan or make an impression of your mouth, taking extra care to make sure that we have a good impression.
Preparation: Our team will use specialized software to design a model of your specific reconstruction, which will be custom-made for your teeth and mouth. The design specifications will then be relayed to our specialized milling or grinding equipment to create the restoration. Fabrication only takes a few hours!
Installation: Our team will place the completed restoration piece into your mouth and make the necessary adjustments to ensure it will remain in place. If necessary, the restoration will be bonded to your tooth.

If you want to learn more about how CEREC technology can work for you, don't hesitate to reach out to our team today. We work with patients from throughout the Olean, Ellicottville, and Bradford area.

Invisalign

Invisalign is an attractive alternative to braces. Using computer imaging technology, we’ll complete a treatment plan of customized clear aligners to move your teeth in increments of two weeks. Invisalign can be removed during meals and to brush your teeth. At Family Dental Wellness, we have the training to provide certified Invisalign procedures for our patients. Each patient interested in this process will receive a treatment plan that is personalized to them.

Invisalign Express is a similar treatment, but can be used in more mild cases of spacing issues. Call us for more information about Invisalign, or ask us during your next appointment.

Clear Correct

Clear Correct is another advanced procedure that can replace braces. X-rays and impressions of your teeth will determine what type of aligners you will need. Similar to Zoom! Whitening, Clear Correct offers a personalized mapping system to adjust your teeth. Users will benefit from comfortable, durable aligners that can be used to treat crowding, overbites, under bites and so much more. Whether you have minor or major issues, Clear Correct will help you see clear, lasting results. Call us today for more information about this process.

Advanced Technology

Nomad X-Ray Technology

Digital x-rays are one of the best ways for dentists to assess your dental needs. Using an advanced sensor and x-ray machine, your dentist can see your teeth and jaw bones and provide an immediate assessment. This type of x-ray reduces the amount of radiation that patients are exposed to and cuts down on the processing time for instant results.

Intra-Oral Camera

At Family Dental Wellness, we use patient education to ensure long-term dental health. The intra-oral camera allows us to educate and instruct the patient during their exam, while diagnosing and assessing their oral health. During your exam, we can show you specific problem areas of your teeth, and you can feel free to become more involved in the process.

OralID Oral Cancer Screenings

According to the Oral Cancer Foundation, “Close to 48,250 Americans will be diagnosed with oral or pharyngeal cancer this year.” When oral cancer is caught early, it is most treatable. That’s why it’s important to receive oral cancer screenings from your dentist. OralID is an efficient cancer screening device we use at Family Dental Wellness to identify oral cancer and pre-oral cancer. If you have high risk factors for oral cancer or if a routine checkup reveals you may need this screening, we’re equipped to provide OralID oral cancer screenings. Call us for more information about this screening.

Florida Probe Periodontal Charting

Florida Probe Periodontal Charting allows us to track your progress and health from visit to visit. We can see the differences in teeth and gum health using these records of your checkups. Ask us during your next appointment for more information about Florida Probe Periodontal Charting.

Don't hesitate to call us if you have any questions about our X-Ray, CEREC or Invisalign technology.
