New Technologies
Designing a same-day crown with D4D technology.
Chalet brings you the most advanced technology available in the market today. Chalet team members are contracted with the leading technology providers to review and test the newest equipment.
Our work with 3M and D4D Technologies, Inc. allows us to see the future of dentistry, and to give valuable input on its development.
We incorporate these advanced technologies into our practice to serve you better. This means higher quality, faster service, and more value!
E4D Same Day Dentistry
Chalet Dental has invested in E4D technology (produced by D4D Technologies, Inc.) to give our patients same-day crowns. It’s the fastest and most convenient way to replace crowns. Learn more…
Dental Microscopes
Magnification is essential for performing endodontic procedures (root canal) as well as for many other dental procedures. A microscope promotes consistent and accurate visualization of the teeth. Anything else is just a compromise
Dr. Riek using an advanced dental microscope.
Our microscopes provide us with up to six levels of magnification. They also provide additional illumination, critical for increased visualization.
When we can see things better, we are better able to diagnose problems in the early stages development. Moreover, treatments also can be performed with a greater level of precision, improving success of our procedures.
Enhanced visualization can also allow for treatment to be provided more comfortably to the patient because of lighter, more refined hand movements.
We use dental microscopes for almost all of our procedures because the difference is that significant.
Lava™ Chairside Oral Scanner C.O.S.
The Lava™ Chairside Oral Scanner (from 3M, Inc.) is the result of proprietary and innovative technology. With the simplicity of a small, pen-like wand, the scanner captures multiple 3D visual images of your teeth in just seconds.
The information from the scanner is modeled on a screen in real-time. That means that you and the dentist can look at the results immediately. With this real-time visibility, we can confidently and immediately assess whether enough information has been captured for a completed digital impression. Learn More…
Diode Laser
The diode laser is one of the most exciting tools available in dentistry. With it, we can treat patients with greater precision. This means less pain and quicker healing for you.
The diode laser is flexible enough to be used in many different procedures. It is most commonly used to perform soft-tissue surgery, including removing lesions from the soft tissues of the mouth. Because the diode laser’s high-energy beam kills bacteria, it is often used to sterilize areas of the mouth before or during root canals, cavity treatment, and other such procedures.
We also use the diode laser to perform laser tooth cleaning and plaque removal. The laser is powerful enough to remove even heavily calcified deposits, leaving the teeth clean and free of potential cavity-causing plaque. The diode laser can also be used to treat gum disease.
