PANORAMIC 3D X-RAYS
The Galileos 3D X-ray system produces a single picture of all your teeth and surrounding bones. Sometimes referred to as a panoramic X-ray or pano, the Galileos provides a three-dimensional, panoramic view of your mouth, enabling the dentist to see the multiple angles of your mouth and jaw from one X-ray. As a bonus, it is a digital X-ray and it uses less radiation than traditional X-ray film machines. Your 3D X-ray can be seen by Dr. Bischoff within seconds of taking it and he can go over the results with you in the operatory.
VELSCOPE ORAL CANCER SCREENING
The VELscope is the most powerful tool available for assisting in the discovery of problems in the soft tissues of your mouth. This includes the cheeks, tongue and the soft tissue of your pallet. Using the VELscope, we can detect areas of viral, fungal and bacterial infections, inflammation, cancer or precancerous areas and other various oral conditions. We highly recommend getting a VELscope screening if you’ve used tobacco products of any kind, including cigarettes, cigars, pipes, chewing tobacco and snuff, if you have had heavy alcohol use, excessive sun exposure to your lips, if you have HPV or a weakened immune system.
