Advanced Technology

Dr. Heatrice loves attending continuing education (CE) courses because she gets to learn about the latest advancements in dental technology, restorative materials, techniques, and cool new gadgets. Dentistry is constantly evolving, and she wants to ensure that she is always providing the best possible care for her patients by staying up to date with these advancements.

Intraoral Camera

At Bloomy’s, we utilize intraoral camera technology to enhance your understanding of your child’s diagnosis. Our intraoral camera allows us to capture clear, precise images of your child’s mouth, teeth and gums, enabling us to make accurate diagnosis. With these clear, enlarged images, you can see details that may be missed during standard mirror examinations.

Intraoral cameras also allow Dr. Heatrice to save your images in our office computer, providing a permanent record of treatments.

Digital X-rays

Dr. Heatrice utilizes modern digital X-ray technology, which minimizes radiation exposure for your child. X-rays help her detect areas of decay between the teeth, track dental development and tooth eruption, and assess for bone disease or other issues that may not be visible during a regular examination.

Wireless Dental Anesthesia Pen 

No more scary-looking syringes! Anesthesia is now administered using a device that resembles a pen. It delivers a gentle, metered dose of anesthetic, eliminating the burning and stinging sensations traditionally associated with local anesthesia. The anesthetic penetrates instantly, providing profound numbness and comfort to the area. This sleek device enables Dr. Heatrice to perform treatments efficiently while keeping young patients relaxed and pain-free.
