Technology That Works for Your Smile

Care You Can Understand

Technology changes. The reason people visit the dentist does not. When something doesn't feel right, you want answers you can trust. You want to understand what your doctor sees and what treatment could mean for your smile.

The technology used throughout Port Susan Dental Care helps make those conversations clearer. From same-day crowns to advanced imaging, Dr. Joe Eidsness and the team use technology that helps turn questions into answers, allowing you to take a more active role in your care.

Get Your Crown in One Visit With CEREC®

CEREC® technology allows our team to design and fabricate custom all-porcelain dental crowns right here in the office. Using a digital 3D scan of your tooth, your crown can often be created and placed during a single visit.

This option is ideal if you're dealing with damaged or heavily restored teeth but would prefer to avoid a temporary restoration and a return visit. Because your final crown is completed the same day, you can spend less time waiting and more time enjoying a healthy, functional smile.

See More With Digital X-Rays

Some dental concerns develop in places you cannot see when you look in the mirror. Your tooth can appear healthy while changes are taking place beneath the surface, which is why x-rays remain an important part of protecting your oral health.

When Dr. Eidsness reviews your digital x-rays, he can look for concerns such as decay, impacted teeth, or changes around the roots. The images appear immediately on a screen, allowing you to follow along and better understand what is happening with your teeth. Because digital x-rays require significantly less radiation than traditional film, they also provide that information with less exposure.

Take a Closer Look at Your Smile

Stay More Comfortable With the Isolite® System

Even routine treatment can feel longer when you're focused on keeping your mouth open or trying to stay in the right position. Small distractions can make it harder to relax during an appointment.

The Isolite® Illuminated Dental Isolation system helps support your cheek and tongue while keeping the treatment area clearly visible for your doctor. While Dr. Eidsness focuses on your procedure, you can spend less time adjusting and more time simply getting the care your smile needs. Better visibility and access can also help procedures move more efficiently, allowing our team to stay focused on your treatment.

Get a Closer Look With an Intraoral Camera

It can be difficult to understand a dental concern when you're only hearing about it. Seeing the area for yourself often makes the conversation much clearer.

Using the Intraoral camera, detailed images of your teeth appear on a screen, giving you the opportunity to see what your doctor is seeing. If your filling is wearing down or your tooth has developed a crack, you'll be able to view the concern for yourself. Those images can also help support your insurance documentation when treatment is recommended. With a clear understanding of your dental needs, we can decide together what the best treatment is for you.

Enjoy a Gentler Cleaning With an Ultrasonic Scaler

If it's been a while since your last cleaning, you may be expecting the scraping sensation many people remember from years ago. Modern hygiene appointments look a little different.

Throughout your cleaning appointment, your dental hygienist may use an ultrasonic scaler to break apart plaque and tartar using gentle vibrations and a steady flow of water or an antimicrobial rinse. The instrument can reach below the gumline and into areas that are difficult to clean with traditional tools alone. Once the cleaning is complete, our team will check for any remaining buildup before polishing your teeth.

Stay Protected With Advanced Sterilization

When you visit Port Susan Dental Care, you place a great deal of trust in the people caring for your oral health. We understand that part of that trust comes from knowing the tools used during your appointment have been prepared with your safety in mind.

Every instrument used during your visit is sterilized according to all federal and state CDC recommendations. The sterilization equipment is monitored weekly through biological testing that is reviewed by an independent laboratory, helping ensure everything is functioning exactly as intended before your appointment begins.
