Advanced Technology

In addition to Dr. Burroughs’ years of training and experience, he uses a triad of state-of-the-art equipment that you simply will not find in most dental offices. This technology allows Dr. Burroughs to provide you with an accurate diagnosis, appropriate treatment plan, and the highest quality specialized care.

The overall health of our patients is our number one concern. To limit radiation to our patients, our office features digital x-rays. With up to 80% less radiation exposure then that of conventional x-rays, the digital images we acquire give us 2D pictures of your teeth that aid in appropriately diagnosing and treatment planning your care.

Precision Endodontics

Dr. Burroughs also uses a surgical microscope for every procedure, allowing him to see the most detailed anatomy of your tooth. The high-powered magnification of the surgical microscope allows visualization of areas of the tooth that may have gone otherwise unnoticed, giving Dr. Burroughs the opportunity to provide the most precise treatment.

State-of-the-Art 3D Imaging

Additionally, Dr. Burroughs has 3D technology that sets a new standard for imaging and diagnostics. The dental Cone Beam CT provides a superior image with minimal radiation. The quality of the images produced gives Dr. Burroughs another dimension to view your teeth and surrounding structures that is simply not attainable with 2D digital x-rays. This advanced technology allows Dr. Burroughs the opportunity to assess for additional treatment needs that may have only become apparent during the procedure.
