Intra-Oral Scanner

Say goodbye to uncomfortable impressions — you know, the ones that make you gag? And then if you do gag, they have to retake the impression and you’re stuck in a never-ending traumatic nightmare? Not at Draughn Dental Care.

Our Intra-Oral Scanner allows us to scan your mouth with a wand-like tool. The digital scan of your mouth is then used to construct crowns, bridges, removables, and other materials you may need— all without the gag reflex.

Intra-Oral Camera

Get your teeth camera ready. Similar to the scanner, our Intra-Oral Camera is a wand-shaped device that lets us take images and video of small areas of your mouth. The camera is pivotal for patient education, allowing us to show you what areas of your mouth need attention and care.

Digital X-Rays

Did you know modern X-rays don’t require a lead apron? Moving to a digital format over film and advances in tech have lowered X-ray radiation exposure. In fact, it’s now a smaller dosage than the natural background dose we receive on average in one day. Plus, those little wings you bite down on? They’re not nearly as large as they used to be. Another major win for dentist office comfort.

Mill

Our in-office mill enables us to fabricate crowns right here in Bloomfield and offer same-day crowns, so you don’t have to go through the trouble of a temporary. The mill uses only tooth-colored materials to ensure the most natural appearance possible.
