Dental Technology Naperville

Modern dental technology supports more detailed diagnosis, efficient workflows, precise treatment planning, and a more comfortable patient experience.

Technology That Supports Better Dental Decisions

Dental technology is most useful when it helps your dentist see more clearly, plan more precisely, or make treatment more comfortable and efficient. At Gantos Dental Group in Naperville, our team integrates digital imaging, lasers, scanning, air polishing, 3D printing, and other technologies into everyday care.

These tools support prevention, diagnosis, restorative dentistry, periodontal care, implant planning, bite analysis, cosmetic treatment, and patient communication. Technology does not replace clinical judgment—it gives our team additional information and options when planning your care.

How Dental Technology Can Improve Your Visit

Depending on your treatment, technology may help with:

94%

of patients said 3D scanning encouraged them to pursue treatment.

91%

of patients preferred digital scanning over traditional dental impressions

40–60%

less radiation used with digital dental imaging compared with traditional film.

The goal is not technology for its own sake—it is using the right tool to make diagnosis, planning, treatment, and communication better.

AIRFLOW® & PIEZON®

Technology used within Guided Biofilm Therapy to remove biofilm, stain, and deposits with a prevention-focused approach.

Cone Beam / 3D X-Ray

Cone beam CT creates detailed 3D views of teeth, jaws, and surrounding anatomy for diagnosis and planning.

3D Printing

In-office 3D printing can support accurate, efficient production of selected dental models, guides, and appliances.

DEXIS CariVu™

Transillumination technology helps clinicians visualize certain tooth structure and detect selected caries without ionizing radiation.

VELscope®

Fluorescence visualization provides an additional way to examine changes in oral soft tissue.

Soft Tissue Laser

Dental lasers can be used for selected procedures involving the soft tissues of the mouth.

The Wand®

Computer-controlled local anesthetic delivery is designed to provide a more controlled injection experience.

Ultrasonic Scaling

Ultrasonic scaling uses vibration and water to disrupt deposits and biofilm on tooth and root surfaces.

Surgically Clean Filters

Medical-grade air filtration is used in the practice to support a cleaner indoor environment.

PROPHYflex™

Air polishing technology helps remove stain and biofilm from teeth, restorations, and selected implant surfaces.

Same Day Crowns

CAD/CAM technology can turn digital scans into selected ceramic restorations within a streamlined workflow.

PrepStart™

Air abrasion uses a focused stream of air and abrasive particles for selected restorative procedures.

Intraoral Camera

A small camera captures detailed images so patients and clinicians can see areas of the mouth more clearly.

Digital X-Rays

Digital radiography provides detailed dental images with an efficient digital workflow.

Vectra H2 Scanner

High-resolution 3D facial imaging can support cosmetic communication and treatment planning.

Fotona LightWalker® Laser

A dual-wavelength dental laser platform supports a wide range of hard- and soft-tissue applications.

Fotona Dynamis® Laser

The Dynamis® laser platform supports selected aesthetic and soft-tissue treatment applications.

T-Scan Occlusal Analysis

Digital bite analysis measures the timing and relative force of tooth contacts during occlusion.

JVA (Joint Vibrational Analysis)

JVA records jaw-joint vibrations during movement to add objective information to TMJ evaluation.

How We Use Technology in Dental Care

Diagnosis

Imaging, cameras, and detection tools can provide information that complements the clinical exam.

Treatment Planning

Digital scans, 3D data, and software help us visualize anatomy and plan selected procedures.

Treatment Delivery

Lasers, air abrasion, air polishing, CAD/CAM, and other tools can support efficient care.

Communication

Images and digital records make it easier to show you what we see and explain your options.

Dental Technology FAQs

Technology can provide additional diagnostic information, support precise planning, improve communication, and make selected procedures more efficient or comfortable.

Cone beam CT is a dental imaging system that creates three-dimensional views of teeth, jaws, and surrounding structures.

An intraoral camera is a small camera used to capture detailed images inside the mouth so areas can be viewed on a screen.

Systems such as T-Scan record the timing and relative force of tooth contacts to provide objective information about the bite.

Different laser systems can be used for selected hard-tissue, soft-tissue, periodontal, surgical, or aesthetic procedures.

Air polishing uses a controlled stream of air, water, and powder to remove biofilm and stain from selected tooth and restoration surfaces.

CAD/CAM workflows can allow selected ceramic restorations to be designed and produced in-office, depending on the case.

No. Technology provides additional information and tools, but diagnosis and treatment recommendations still depend on professional evaluation.
