Dentistry has evolved way past the point of using little mirrors to look at your teeth or just fixing cavities. With the latest technology, we’re able to address a wider variety of problems even faster and keep patients more comfortable while we do it. Thanks to the tools outlined below, we can promise that your care with us will always be quick, precise, and high quality. At Aegis Dental, we’ll only give you the very best of what modern-day dentistry has to offer.
Our CBCT (cone beam computed tomography) scanner provides advanced 3D imaging that allows us to see detailed views of your teeth, jaw, nerves, and bone structure. Unlike traditional X-rays, CBCT scans offer a full picture of your oral anatomy, which is essential for planning complex treatments like dental implants, root canals, extractions, and so on. The best part? The scan is quick, non-invasive, and emits very low radiation. With this precise method of imaging, we can diagnose issues more accurately and create more effective, personalized treatment plans.
At our office, we use an advanced soft tissue laser to provide more precise and comfortable care. This state-of-the-art device is used for a variety of treatments, including periodontal disease therapy, removing excess or damaged tissue, and many more. The laser works by gently targeting soft tissues with minimal bleeding, swelling, or discomfort, and it often eliminates the need for stitches or anesthesia since it cauterizes as it works. Healing is also typically faster and more comfortable compared to traditional methods. Our patients love how quick and easy their appointments are with the help of this instrument, as well as how little downtime they experience afterward.
Our digital impression system replaces the need for traditional molds with a faster, cleaner, and more comfortable alternative. Using a small handheld scanner, we can quickly create highly accurate 3D images of your teeth and gums. These digital impressions are ideal for crowns, bridges, and all other types of restorations and treatments. Not only does this technology improve accuracy and reduce the risk of errors, but it also enhances your overall experience, since there’s no mess, no gagging on foul-tasting materials, and a much smoother appointment.
Your TMJ is actually the name for your jaw joint, and like other joints in the body, it can sometimes develop problems due to strain, injury, or arthritis. Dr. Chandy is specially trained to diagnose and treat these kinds of issues, so if you’re dealing with symptoms like a stiff, painful jaw, chronic headaches, earaches, or even neck and shoulder pain, she can provide the relief you need using a selection of effective, non-invasive treatments.

In the past, you just had to trust your dentist when it came to what was going on in your mouth, but thanks to the Schick intraoral camera, you can now see exactly what they are talking about. This small, pen-sized instrument can be easily maneuvered through the mouth to capture highly-detailed images of your teeth and gums we can then display on a chairside monitor so you can go over them with your dentist.
Compared to traditional, film-based dental X-rays, digital X-rays are a huge leap forward in almost every way you can imagine. They create crystal clear images in seconds, they don’t require toxic chemicals to be developed, plus they expose our patients (and us!) to 90% LESS radiation. Also, because the images are digital, they can easily be sent, stored, and displayed on a monitor for you to view with your dentist.
