Drill-Free Dentistry

One of the things many patients dread about the dentist is the dental drill. Even if you’ve been given anesthesia, the noise of the dental drill can send a shiver down the bravest spine. At Calian Dental, we understand this, which is why we have moved into drill-free dentistry.

Instead of using dental drills for removing tooth decay, we now use a technique called air abrasion. (We may also use laser dentistry in certain cases.) Air at supersonic speed blows a mild powder abrasive onto your teeth, gently brushing tooth decay away. 

As long as we catch your cavity early enough, we’re able to use this pain-free technique – all without numb lips, shots, or that shudder-inducing drill noise.
