Spa Dentaire Laval is the first clinic in Canada equipped with iTero digital impression technology.

Advantages of iTero technology

Comfort: If you have ever had a conventional impression taken, you know just how uncomfortable the process is. The putty is messy, tastes extremely unpleasant, and in many patients can cause gagging. With iTero technology, you no longer experience these annoyances.

Greater Speed: The digital impression is complete in approximately three to five minutes–as opposed to eight to ten for conventional impressions.

Reduced Anxiety: The scanner that is used is small. Once your dentist begins the scanning process, it can be stopped and started as many times as necessary.

Accuracy: The iTero digital impression system creates an exact replica of what is in your mouth. This results in a more accurately fitting crown or bridge.

iCat is the latest imaging technology (scan).

Patients love the maxillofacial 3D i-Cat imaging system because they can remain comfortably seated in an open space, rather than in an uncomfortable confined space. It is much more comfortable and uses significantly lower radiation doses compared to traditional equipment.

iCat is unparalleled technology that yields superior, extremely accurate results and reduces costs. It provides dentists with more accurate information for diagnosis, planning and treatment of a wide variety of oral and maxillofacial problems. This technology makes it possible to see what was once invisible to the naked eye.

Image quality

The exceptional image quality produced by Spa Dentaire’s digital radiography equipment will amaze you. You will be able to appreciate this quality by viewing the results on the monitor at the same time as the dentist. You will be an integral part of planning the treatment and exploring various options and aspects that concern you.

Patient safety

Spa Dentaire Laval’s digital radiography system does not require the use of chemicals that are harmful to people and the environment. Spa Dentaire Laval patients and staff team are no longer exposed to any risks associated with the handling of standard radiography equipment.

Low radiation levels

The radiation dose absorbed by the patient during digital radiography is equivalent to the natural dose present in the environment when an individual takes a 30-minute flight at an altitude of 11,000 metres. The dose to which the patient is exposed during digital radiography is one tenth of the dose that is absorbed when using conventional radiography equipment (on category D film).

Spa Dentaire Laval is concerned about the health and safety of our patients and staff.

Laser surgery in periodontal treatment

To efficiently treat periodontal diseases, bacterial or parasitic infections, Spa Dentaire Laval uses highly effective laser equipment. Thanks to our specialized periodontal treatment, the supporting structures of your teeth, gums, alveolar bone, cement and alveolodental ligament are restored to their health.

Advantages of laser

Compared to conventional surgical treatment, laser surgery eliminates side-effects. It is virtually painless, with no bleeding or swelling of the tissue. The only side-effect reported by patients who underwent laser surgery is a slight sensitivity to cold and heat for a few days.

Spa Dentaire Laval’s equipment

We use the technology of Odyssey® Diode Lasers from Ivoclar Vivadent, Inc., the latest surgical technology available for soft tissue modification and preventive care. With unique easy-to-use features, it is the most efficient and accurate laser in dentistry today.

Our equipment allows us to easily and safely treat all soft tissue problems without the complications and discomfort associated with incisions in traditional surgery. The Odyssey Diode Lasers cut and coagulate at the same time, thereby facilitating immediate hemostasis, less tissue charring, less postoperative healing time and fewer post-operative complications, including a reduced chance of infection.

The laser performs minor surgical procedures and in addition, reduces bacteria from the area at the same time. Sutures are rarely needed for laser wounds and many soft tissue procedures around the gingiva can be completed without anesthesia for greater patient acceptance and comfort.

Neuromuscular dentistry begins with the true relaxation of the muscles through the use of TENS. TENS is a widely used term, but as used in neuromuscular dentistry, it is more properly called ultra-low frequency electrical muscle stimulation. This safe, battery operated device delivers a mild electrical stimulus to the muscles via neural pathways. The stimulus induces involuntary contraction of the facial muscles.

Why use TENS?

Muscles of the face and neck are often "programmed" (propriocepted) to control head and mandibular posture in a way that accommodates occlusion, even though that particular occlusion may be less than ideal. The Spa Dentaire Laval dentist wants to relax these often tense muscles to find their true resting state and establish the occlusion at that position. It is extremely difficult to voluntarily overcome this proprioception, so TENS is used. A secondary use of low frequency stimulation is to achieve drug-free muscle pain relief.

The K7 has detectors to measure the movements of all the temporomandibular joints. Spa Dentaire Laval uses the K7 device to diagnose and treat the occlusion.

Our goal is to align your jaw. To do so, Spa Dentaire Laval first scientifically exams all components in minute detail: muscles, hard and soft tissues, teeth, nerves and joints. After analyzing the interaction of all these elements, Dr. Sahag Mahseredjian determines the ideal muscular position and carries out the most appropriate corrective procedure. The neuromuscular dentistry equipment used at Spa Dentaire Laval is completely computerized and provides unparalleled accuracy. This leaves no room for subjectivity and ensures optimal results.
