Dental Techonolgy in Monroe Township

Modern dental treatments and technology have improved by leaps and bounds. Good dentists are striving to make their patients comfortable in all areas of the dental process. One piece of technology that lets the patient see what the dentist sees is the Intra-Oral Camera. This device is a miniature video camera that displays a close-up picture of the inside of your mouth. You can now be a part of the dental team, and be a participant in each dental decision.

Another technology is laser dentistry. What would you say if you could have work done in your mouth without drills and needles? Well, now you can with a revolutionary laser technology known as WaterLase. Previous dental lasers were used primarily for gums or whitening teeth, but WaterLase is used for both gum and tooth procedures. So, how is it painless? Energy from the laser is absorbed by water instead of teeth. These energy rich microscopic water droplets are actually what remove the tooth decay. In many cases, WaterLase replaces the dentist's drill. Thank you dental technology!

A Relaxing Environment for Dental Care

Going to the dentist is a healthy and beneficial thing to do. But many people let their fears prohibit them from making regular visits. Some people are naturally anxious at even the thought of a needle, and others break into a cold sweat at the mention of the word "dentist." We want to make your visit with us as comfortable as possible.

One way we try to make your visit as relaxing as possible is with a warm and welcoming atmosphere in the office. We have very friendly and knowledgeable staff that is there to help.
Another way we want to help you enjoy your visit is ease the anxiety that many associate with pricks and pokes of the dentist. We take great pride in being able to deliver painless injections.

Also, before your visit we can prescribe for you a pill to take an hour before your appointment. When combined with Nitrous Oxide (laughing gas), you will reach a level of sedation that allows you to remain in control and relax through your entire visit. This is ideal for fearful people or those who have a busy schedule and want to get all their treatment done in one visit. So leave your fears at home and make an appointment today!

TMJ Treatments

Do you find yourself with frequent headaches, aching or popping jaws, shoulder pain, and neck pain? This can be caused by dental occlusion (your bite). TMJ can cause your jaw to not relax in a natural position. This causes tension in the muscles in the jaw, and can lead to a variety of pain that you may have already grown accustomed to living with. Other symptoms of TMJ include: jaw pain, headaches, clicking or popping noise from the joint, ear pain, face pain, inability to open the mouth wide, and many more.

Treatments for TMJ can consist of using a custom-made dental orthotic. It is a non-invasive removable appliance in which the jaw can be returned to the position that nature intended. If you have been living with the pain and discomfort described above, we invite you to discover the benefits that this procedure may bring to your quality of life. Call Central Jersey Dental with any questions you may have about TMJ and treamtent.
