Modern Tools That Enhance Accuracy, Safety, and Comfort

Our clinical team—including Dr. Michelle Saunders, Dr. Justin Anderson, Dr. Lesley R. Nellor, and Dr. Daniel Davis—uses a combination of digital X-rays, panoramic imaging, and intraoral cameras to give you a clearer picture of your oral health. We invest in modern equipment so you get more accurate diagnoses, more efficient treatment, and peace of mind at every visit.

Why Dental Technology Matters

Digital advancements in dentistry aren’t just about fancy equipment—they directly impact your safety, comfort, and treatment outcomes. At Jayhawk Dental, our commitment to innovation helps us:

  • Detect issues earlier and more accurately
  • Reduce radiation exposure for patients

  • Improve communication and patient education
  • Make your visits more efficient and stress-free

Whether you’re here for a routine dental exam or a complex restorative procedure, our technology supports every step of your care.

Our In-Office Dental Technology

Digital X-Rays

We use high-resolution digital X-rays to diagnose problems like decay, bone loss, and infection with greater accuracy and significantly less radiation than traditional film. The digital format allows for:

  • Faster imaging
  • Instant viewing on screen
  • Easier sharing with specialists if needed
  • Environmentally friendly (no chemicals required)

Digital X-rays are taken during most cleanings and exams to help monitor changes over time and catch small issues before they become bigger problems.

Panoramic X-Rays

Unlike standard bitewings, panoramic X-rays provide a complete 2D view of your entire mouth, jaw, and sinus area in one single image. This tool is especially helpful for:

The process is quick, comfortable, and provides comprehensive insights that guide more effective treatment.

Intraoral Cameras

Our intraoral cameras give you a firsthand look at what’s happening inside your mouth. These small, handheld devices project real-time, high-quality images onto a screen so you can see exactly what your dentist sees.

Intraoral cameras help us:

  • Document and explain areas of concern
  • Track changes over time
  • Improve transparency and communication
  • Enhance case acceptance and patient understanding

We often use them during restorative dentistry procedures or when discussing cosmetic options like veneers or teeth whitening.

Technology That Enhances Every Visit

From the moment you sit in the chair, our modern tools work behind the scenes to elevate your care. Digital records, precision diagnostics, and enhanced imaging help us make better decisions, faster—and ensure you're fully informed every step of the way.

Combined with our experienced team and patient-first approach, our dental technology ensures a more confident and comfortable dental experience.

FAQs About Dental Technology

Answer text goes here

Is digital X-ray radiation safe?

Yes. Digital X-rays use up to 90% less radiation than traditional film X-rays, making them a much safer option—especially for children and patients who require frequent imaging.

What’s the difference between digital and panoramic X-rays?

Digital X-rays focus on individual teeth or specific sections of your mouth. Panoramic X-rays capture your entire mouth, jaw, and sinuses in one image, giving us a broader diagnostic view.

Are intraoral cameras used for every patient?

We use intraoral cameras as needed to help you see areas of concern or to monitor changes. They’re especially helpful in explaining findings and documenting progress.

Does modern dental technology increase the cost of care?

Not at Jayhawk Dental. We believe in using advanced tools to improve the quality and efficiency of care without increasing your out-of-pocket costs.

Can I request copies of my digital images?

Yes! We can easily share your X-rays or intraoral photos with you or a specialist, if necessary.
