Digital Dentistry in Towson
The next level of dental care is available in our office with digital scanning and laser dentistry. Dr. Welinsky can address your dental health needs with treatment that is less invasive using technology designed to improve results.
Intraoral scanner:
We offer radiation-free cavity* scanning using a convenient and comfortable intraoral scanner. Our dental care team can take in-depth digital scans of all surfaces of your teeth to spot cavities in the earliest phase of development.
Routine dental visits combined with advanced digital technology can often mean that problems are identified and treated quickly and conservatively, avoiding bigger issues and extensive dental care needs. Our intraoral scanner makes it easier to provide the highest standard of care with less radiation and greater accuracy.
Diode laser:
We use a soft-tissue diode laser for a variety of treatments that address gum health. Dr. Welinsky offers frenectomies for tongue ties, gingivectomy for a gummy smile, and can treat cold sores early on to reduce discomfort. Our hygienists can use the laser before a deep cleaning or scaling and root planing for the antibacterial effect that the heat energy has in the gum tissue.
The dental laser can also be used to treat muscular pain related to a TMJ disorder. The laser energy can relax muscles to alleviate tension and discomfort.
