Gemini Evo LASER
The Gemini Evo LASER is an advanced dental technology designed for precise soft-tissue procedures. It offers improved accuracy, faster healing times, and enhanced patient comfort by minimizing bleeding and reducing the need for sutures. With its dual-wavelength functionality, it provides versatility for various treatments, including gum contouring, frenectomies, and periodontal therapy.
3Shape Trios 5 Wireless - Intra Oral Scanner
The intraoral scanner designed for an effortless scanning experience, next-level ergonomics, and improved hygiene. This is the scanner that sets a new standard in patient protection and infection control. Its intelligent alignment technology for building up a 3D model results in precision scans, effortlessly and efficiently.


PIEZO SCALING
For greater effectiveness during routine dental examinations and cleanings, as well as patient safety, Piezo Scaling allows dentists to use different inserts or tips for specific procedures or areas of the mouth. The result is easier removal of decay, plaque, and tartar and greater accuracy during dental procedures. In addition, there are fewer traumas to adjacent teeth and soft tissues.
Nitrous Oxide
For patients that experience some degree of dental anxiety or apprehension, Nitrous Oxide is inhaled through a small mask that fits over the patient’s nose. Patients feel calm and comfortable, and are able to hear and respond during dental procedures. The effects of nitrous oxide wear off quickly, shortly after the mask is removed.


NOMAD Pro 2 (Digital X-Ray Device)
As a non-conventional digital x-ray device, the NOMAD Pro 2 makes dentistry for all ages more efficient with easily adjustable settings, tailored for different types of images. Its handheld, portable design is more durable, more reliable, and has better battery performance. There’s no longer a need for multiple x-ray units, because NOMAD Pro 2 moves from room to room.
