At Tooth Rock Periodontics, modern technology is integrated into every stage of care to support accurate evaluations, personalized treatment planning, and better patient understanding. Dr. Galya Raz and Dr. Travis Steinberg use these advanced diagnostic tools to gather detailed clinical information while prioritizing patient comfort and clear communication. Each technology is carefully incorporated to enhance efficiency, encourage informed conversations, and help patients feel confident about their treatment options. Our office proudly serves patients in Poway and nearby communities, including Ramona, Sabre Springs, and Rancho Santa Fe.
Digital X-Rays
Digital dental X-rays produce detailed images of the teeth, supporting bone, and surrounding structures with lower radiation exposure than traditional film. These images are available within moments, allowing findings to be reviewed during the appointment. This technology assists in detecting periodontal concerns, monitoring bone levels, and evaluating healing throughout periodontal treatment and dental implant care.
iTero Scanner
Creating precise digital impressions is an important part of planning many periodontal and implant procedures. The iTero intraoral scanner captures highly detailed three-dimensional images without the need for conventional impression materials in many cases. These digital models help visualize treatment, improve communication, and support accurate planning for procedures involving dental implants and restorative care.
Intraoral Camera
An intraoral camera captures close-up images inside the mouth that can be displayed immediately during an appointment. These magnified views allow patients to better understand their oral health while helping Dr. Raz and Dr. Steinberg explain clinical findings more clearly. The technology also creates a visual record that can be used to monitor changes over time and support patient education.
Intraoral Scanner
Digital scanning offers a comfortable and efficient way to capture the shape of the teeth and surrounding oral structures. By creating digital dental impressions, the intraoral scanner produces accurate three-dimensional models that simplify communication with dental laboratories and referring dentists while reducing the need for conventional impression materials in many cases. These digital records support precise treatment planning and allow patients to better understand their recommended care.
In-House 3D CBCT Scan
Some periodontal and dental implant procedures require a more comprehensive view of the jaw and surrounding anatomy. Using 3D dental imaging, our in-house CBCT system provides detailed three-dimensional views of bone structure, tooth position, and nearby anatomical landmarks. These images help evaluate implant sites, bone volume, and other important considerations before treatment begins.
Laser Dentistry
Certain soft tissue procedures may benefit from the precision of laser technology. Laser dentistry can be incorporated into selected periodontal treatments when clinically appropriate, allowing targeted treatment of soft tissue while supporting a conservative approach to care. Recommendations are always based on each patient’s diagnosis, oral health needs, and treatment goals.
LANAP
For selected cases of periodontal disease, LANAP is a laser-assisted treatment protocol designed to address infected gum tissue while preserving healthy tissue whenever possible. Before recommending this approach, a comprehensive examination is completed to determine whether it is an appropriate treatment option for the patient’s individual condition.
PerioView
The PerioView dental endoscope uses a miniature camera to provide direct visualization beneath the gumline, allowing periodontal pockets to be examined in greater detail. This technology helps identify areas that may not be visible through traditional examination alone and supports accurate evaluation, treatment planning, and ongoing periodontal monitoring.
