Innovations in Dental Care: How Technology Improves Your Smile

At ConfiDENT Dental, we believe exceptional dental care is driven by a combination of expert knowledge, patient-first service, and cutting-edge technology. With offices in Alpharetta and Cumming, GA, our team stays ahead of the curve with tools and techniques that redefine what’s possible in dentistry. From same-day restorations to non-invasive gum therapy, our technology enhances precision, shortens treatment time, and improves long-term results—for a better experience from start to finish.

Here’s a closer look at the advanced equipment shaping smiles at ConfiDENT Dental.

Same-Day Crowns with CEREC Milling Technology

Gone are the days of multiple appointments and temporary crowns. Our CEREC milling unit allows us to design, craft, and place high-quality ceramic crowns in a single visit. Using digital impressions, we capture a 3D image of your tooth and design the crown chairside. The crown is then milled from a solid ceramic block in about an hour and bonded immediately, saving you time without compromising durability or esthetics.

Laser Gum Therapy with PerioLase MVP-7 for LANAP

If you suffer from periodontal disease, you may be dreading traditional gum surgery. But at ConfiDENT Dental, we offer LANAP® (Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure) using the PerioLase MVP-7. This advanced laser technology targets infected gum tissue and bacteria with minimal discomfort and faster healing than traditional scalpel methods.

Patients in Alpharetta, Cumming, and surrounding areas love LANAP because it’s minimally invasive, doesn’t require cutting or stitching, and can stimulate regeneration of healthy bone and tissue around teeth.

SprintRay 3D Printing: Precision at Your Fingertips

Our SprintRay 3D printer empowers us to create custom dental devices like nightguards, surgical guides, whitening trays, and temporary crowns with impressive speed and accuracy. This in-house solution reduces lab wait times and gives us full control over the design and fit of your appliance.

With this technology, patients benefit from faster turnaround times, enhanced customization, and improved comfort.

VELscope® for Life-Saving Oral Cancer Screenings

Oral cancer claims one life every hour in the U.S., but early detection can dramatically increase survival rates. That’s why we’ve incorporated the VELscope® system into our preventive care. This painless, handheld device uses natural tissue fluorescence to highlight abnormal cells in your mouth that aren’t visible under normal light.

A VELscope exam takes just minutes and could save your life. We recommend it as part of every routine dental checkup, especially for patients who smoke, use alcohol, or have a family history of oral cancer.

CBCT Imaging with Planmeca Technology

Traditional dental X-rays provide a limited view, but our Planmeca CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) system gives us a complete 3D image of your teeth, jaw, sinuses, and airway. This high-resolution scan is invaluable for planning complex procedures like dental implants, root canals, or TMJ treatments.

CBCT imaging also allows for greater diagnostic accuracy, less radiation exposure, and fewer surprises during procedures. It’s just one more way we ensure safe, predictable outcomes.
