Digital X-ray


In the past, most dental professionals had to use the traditional x-ray systems, which require film development. These days, we use digital x-rays due to their many benefits. A digital x-ray is safer and much quicker than its film predecessor. The digital X-ray sensor is able to record the diagnostic x-ray information at greatly reduced radiation levels thus making it a much safer option than conventional analog x-rays. The digital x-ray is also far superior in its diagnostic value as the image is much larger and allows the dentist the ability to vary the image density for optimal viewing capabilities. Digital x-rays are a crucial diagnostic tool that helps us gain a better understanding of the inner workings of your mouth, more specifically the teeth, roots, and alveolar bone.

Digital Panorex


A digital panorex is also a valuable diagnostic tool. Although not as valuable as individual digital x-rays for evaluating specific teeth, the digital panorex plays an important part in our evaluation of the overall view of the dental complex. The digital panorex allows us to help evaluate wisdom teeth impactions, TMJ disturbances, and any pathology that might be present throughout the jaw bones . As with digital x-rays, the digital panorex provides this information at greatly reduced radiation levels.

Digital Scanning


At Prosthodontics of Princeton, we are utilizing the most revolutionary, technological advances by employing the CEREC digital scanner for capturing images of your mouth onto the computer screen. This technology allows us to do many things that have been previously unavailable. In the past, in order to obtain a model of your mouth, we needed to use messy impression materials to accomplish this task. With digital scanning, we are able to record your top and bottom teeth with a hand held camera that looks like a magic wand. This technology offers many benefits to the patient:

1.  We are able to avoid the messy impression materials used in the past
2.  Limits the gag reflex
3.  More precise communication with our laboratory
4.  Allows us to digitally record a tooth preparation when a patient is having crowns or bridges.
5.  Allows us to fabricate porcelain crowns in-house so patients will be able to have a one-visit procedure for single crowns.

This 3-D printing keeps Prosthodontics of Princeton on the cutting edge of dental technology. After capturing the digital image with our CEREC digital scanner, the digital information is sent to the CEREC Primemill for porcelain milling. With robotic precision, the CEREC Primemill is able to carve the porcelain restoration specifically designed for your mouth. The dentists at Prosthodontics of Princeton are expertly trained in designing and creating these beautiful porcelain creations. Ask the dentists at Prosthodontics of Princeton when you are having a restorative procedure utilizing this incredible technology to watch your crown as it develops before your eyes.

VELscope® Vx Enhanced Oral Assessment System


At your routine hygiene visit, we will perform a visual oral cancer screening. Screening is the best way to ensure that there are no apparent problems related to oral cancer. Did you know that 25% of patients that develop oral cancer have no habits that would be considered risk factors. Once per year we recommend a special, advanced technology called VELscope® Vx Enhanced Oral Assessment System that allows us to see a precancerous lesion in its earliest stage. All healthy cells in the body have a natural reflective fluorescent quality. The VELscope allows the dentists at Prosthodontics of Princeton to see oral lesions that might not be apparent or even visible to the naked eye.We recommend screening with the VELscope® Vx Enhanced Oral Assessment System once per year.
