Advanced Equipment, Stunning Results

If you’re missing teeth and you want a solution you can depend on, dental implants might be for you. Not only do they look amazing, but Dr. Troutman uses state-of-the-art equipment that ensures they’ll feel perfect in your smile. At Troutman Family Dentistry, we want our patients to love their smiles.

Successful dental implant treatments require the hands of a skilled professional, like Dr. Troutman. His use of technology provides faster, safer, and more accurate placement than ever before. Read on to learn more about our dental technology and its benefits.

Benefits of Dental Technology

The advanced dental technology that we utilize at our dental practice provides our team and patients with a variety of benefits, such as:

• Accurate and effective treatment plans
• Faster recovery times
• Stronger, more durable results
• Natural-looking restorations
• Restore the function, feel and look of your smile
• Shorter dental visits

CEREC: Same-Day Solutions

Most dental practices require two visits to complete a dental implant because they need a dental laboratory to manufacture the restoration. However, Dr. Troutman is proud to provide beautiful restorations on the same day as your original treatment.

Same-day restorations are possible because we use CEREC — a computer-aided design and manufacturing machine — to take high-resolution images of your mouth. From there, we’ll manufacture the stunning prosthetic right here in our Huntingburg office.

3D CBCT from Galileo

Cone Beam Compound Computed Tomography (CBCT) is another piece of technology that we use to facilitate our dental implant procedures. Essentially, this equipment is a special type of X-ray that creates high-quality images of the surgical site, including the teeth, bones, and soft tissue.

The benefits of CBCT include:

• Faster healing
• Safer treatment
• More precise implant placement

WaterLase®: Laser Dentistry

The popularity of laser dentistry is growing for treatments like dental implants, cavity preparation, and gum reshaping. Dr. Troutman uses this proven technology to offer our Huntingburg patients premium results. WaterLase is the smallest, most accessible, and most efficient piece of laser dentistry equipment available.

The WaterLase system works by coupling laser energy and water to produce precise treatments. By using lasers, we can increase the speed of treatment and ensure that you get the most accurate care possible.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is laser dentistry painless?

Laser dentistry can eliminate a significant amount of pain from many procedures. Most patients don’t need any anesthetic for laser procedures, so you won’t have to wait to become numb and you’ll be able to get back to your daily routine and activities without waiting to recover from numbness.

Is laser dentistry safe?

Yes, laser dentistry is safe. Dental lasers are more accurate and efficient than traditional dental tools, they’re less likely to cause unnecessary harm or remove excess tissue. Dental lasers can provide you with a quicker healing time by stimulating cell growth and sterilizing as it’s used, so it’s less likely you’ll develop an infection.

Will dental X-rays put my health at risk?

Our technology helps provide accurate and efficient results while ensuring the safety and comfort of our patients. The 3D CBCT helps provide Dr. Troutman with accurate information about your oral health in just one sitting. Digital X-rays use very low levels of radiation, presenting no risks to your health.

Will my dental insurance cover the dental technology cost?

Most insurance providers will cover a portion of the dental implant cost. We recommend speaking to your insurance provider to get a detailed look at your coverage plan. We also offer flexible financing options so you don’t have to delay your treatment any longer.
