In
our office we have a complete network of computers
that help us to communicate more efficiently.
This state of the art office system saves you
time by processing information at the “speed
of light”.
COMPUTERIZED
NOVOCAINE
-The
WAND is an excellent example of our efforts to bring
you the latest dental technology. It does not look
or hurt like a syringe, and it works better. By using
a microprocessor, it guides the anesthetic flow rate
to insure safe, profound anesthesia that will not
leave lingering numbness to your tongue, lips, or
face.
DIGITAL
CAMERAS
- A
very important aspect of smile design is analyzing
every aspect of the smile. Digital Photography allows
the doctor and the patient to do this together on
the same day they visit our office.
INTRA
ORAL CAMERA
-We
want you to be well informed about all aspects of
your dental health; we use an Intra Oral video camera
as part of our exam. About the size of a pen, it
allows you to see broken fillings, gum problems or
small cracks, even in back teeth. You’ll see
exactly what we see, so you better understand your
treatment problems and options. This technology helps
detect problems early on, saving patients a significant
amount of money in the long run.

instrument for use in your homecare oral hygiene
program. It is dispensed only through dental professionals

instrument that by itself has been proven to remove
the bacteria from all the surfaces of the teeth including
in between the teeth.

IMAGING TECHNOLOGY:
DIGITAL
PANOREX -For
cancerous and pre-cancerous screening.
KODAK
8000 DIGITAL PANORAMIC SYSTEM -X-rays
taken with the Panorex machine differ from other
digital X-rays in that they take a “panoramic” picture
of the teeth, jaw joints, and facial bones. That
is, the machine makes an entire half-circle motion
to capture an image of the entire oral cavity. Like
digital X-rays, digital Panorex X-rays reduce the
amount of radiation patients are exposed to with
standard X-rays by up to 90 percent. Results are
immediate, so Dr. Sostowski can make accurate diagnoses
on the spot and communicate treatment options to
our patients more effectively.
DIGITAL X-RAYS -At
Dr. Sostowski’s office, our patients’ health
always comes first. This is why we now offer digital
X-rays, a remarkable innovation in dental safety
that allows us to reduce the amount of radiation
patients are exposed to with standard X-rays by up
to 90%. As soon as the picture is taken, an image
pops up on a nearby computer screen.
This amazing technology allows you to view any potential problems in your mouth
and discuss them with Dr. Sostowski or a staff member. The real-time dental information
provided by digital X-rays thus allows you to make better decisions with regards
to your dental health.

DENTAL TECH:
SHADEVISION
3.01 -An
automated shade measurement device that allows Dr.
Sostowski to capture teeth images and transmit them
to our state-of-the-art dental laboratory. ShadeVision
uses 22,000 individual measurements of hue, value,
and chroma to provide consistent and accurate shade
measurements in the fabrication of your dental work
insuring a superior match for your veneers, crowns,
or onlays.
CASEY
EDUCATION SYSTEM -Dentistry’s
premier developer for patient education Tec knowledge.
A DC multimedia presentation geared at raising our
patients dental IQ. Our philosophy is the more information
we are able to supply to our patients the better
able they are to make well-informed decisions on

options.
SILENT NITE -The
Dentist Prescribed Snoring Prevention Devise – It
is estimated that more than 80 million people in
North America snore. Considering the spouse and children
of a snore, as many as 160 million people are negatively
affected by snoring. Silent Nite is an oral device
that is flexible, thin and quite comfortable. It
has also exhibited clinical success for preventing
annoying and unhealthy snoring. When compared to
the moderate success rate of surgical procedures
Silent Nite snore prevention devices can be the first
course of treatment for simple snoring. Only an impression
of the upper and lower arch is needed to make a Silent
Nite.
OralCDx -OralCDx
represents a breakthrough in oral cancer detection,
a test that will allow you and your dentist to improve
the prognosis of a disease that has remained unchanged
for the last 50 years. OralCDx is the first computerized
brush biopsy system. It allows dentists to quickly,
painlessly and reliably detect oral cancer in its
earliest, most easily treatable stage. Originally
developed as part of the “Star Wars” missile
defense program, the OralCDx computer system includes
a neural network-based image processing system specifically
adapted to detect abnormalities unique to oral brush
biopsy samples.
