Innovative Technology
Gentlewave
The GentleWave system uses sound waves and fluids to more effectively clean the canals of a tooth. This system can clean out bacteria, infected debris, and inflamed pulp that other systems cannot reach. Because of the unique cleaning ability of the Gentlewave, we do not have to remove as much tooth structure, leaving your tooth stronger. Patients report less discomfort after the procedure and recover more rapidly. Even though this technology is new, Dr. Harris has years of experience with the Gentlewave and is an authorized provider.
CBCT 3D Imaging
Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) offers 3-dimensional imaging of your teeth and surrounding structures. CBCT has many benefits, including:
- Enhanced accuracy in diagnosis
- Localization of small canals
- Information about surrounding structures such as bone, nerves and sinuses
- Customized treatment that allows for more conservative treatment
At Grand River Endodontics we utilize the J. Morita CBCT machine. This CBCT machine is one of the best in the market, as it offers the highest resolution of your teeth. This assists us in diagnosis and providing the highest-level of care.
Dental Operating Microscopes
The microscope is the best tool endodontists have to perform root canal treatment. It provides optimal magnification and illumination in order to see all of the fine details that your tooth presents with. The microscope allows to perform all steps of endodontics more efficiently and conservatively.
