In many cases, Dr. Koenitzer is one of only a handful of dentists in all Northern California to offer these technological advancements to patients!<\/p>\n<p>Today, Dr. Koenitzer employs all the following devices to deliver stunning results:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>CEREC Technology<\/strong> \u2013 Crafts crowns in a single visit using CAD\/CAM technology combined with a highly-sophisticated milling unit.<\/li>\n<li><strong>PerioLase<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 A laser used to treat moderate to advanced gum disease without scalpels and sutures.<\/li>\n<li><strong>DIAGNOdent Laser Cavity Detection<\/strong> \u2013 A very small laser that detects cavities in the grooves and crevices of the teeth that may not be visible to the naked eye.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Digital X-Rays<\/strong> \u2013 Require less than half the radiation of traditional X-rays and produce images on a computer monitor within seconds.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How Microscopes Improve Your Dental Care<\/h2>\n<p>Think about how small a dime is in your hand. Now, imagine if that dime was 20x bigger! You would be able to see every groove, scratch and design detail on the coin with ease. This is the basic idea behind surgical operating microscopes, an incredible technology that allows dentists to conduct detailed and challenging procedures with an unprecedented level of precision.<\/p>\n<p>Although they are utilized by less than 1% of general dentists, Dr. Koenitzer has three microscopes in his office that enable him to deliver more efficient, precise care. The 20x magnification provided by surgical operating microscopes allows Dr. Koenitzer to apply dental fillings and complete more extensive procedures like root canals with accuracy and ease. For patients, this means shorter treatment times and better, longer-lasting results!<\/p>\n<p>Advanced technology can take dental care to the next level \u2013 but only if your dentist in Petaluma offers it!
