Dental Technology

At Goduco Smiles, we offer multiple types of dentures to meet the varied needs of our patients.

With DIAGNOdent, Dr. Philip V. Goduco can diagnose dental decay before it causes visible damage or discomfort. The innovative laser can measure the level of fluorescence in a healthy tooth. Dr. Goduco will compare your other teeth to this base reading. As he does, he will look for abnormally high levels of fluorescence. DIAGNOdent is quick, non-invasive, very accurate, and helps us provide effective treatment before you experience significant decay.

The iTero® scanner produces digital 3-D images of all of your teeth. This system eliminates the need for messy, uncomfortable impressions. Dr. Goduco can also instantly display the images on an exam room computer to explain your oral health and procedure options. iTero® is particularly helpful during Invisalign® treatment. Dr. Goduco can use the images to design comfortable aligner trays that will effectively straighten your teeth.

Digital x-rays can capture pictures of isolated teeth or your entire jaw. Dr. Goduco can use the x-rays to look for dental misalignment, impacted teeth, cavities, and other concerns. Digital x-rays are much sharper than standard film x-rays. We can also significantly and accurately magnify these images for more exact diagnoses and restorative treatment. In addition, digital imaging exposes patients to only a fraction of the radiation of traditional methods.
