Digital Impressions:

     Summer 2024 we started milling crowns on site instead of sending them out to a lab to be completed. This means that our patients can get a crown started and finished on the same day, no need to go home with a temporary and wait for the lab to make the crown. Some procedures will still need to be sent off to the lab, but we are slowly transitioning to doing as much as possible on site.

Here's What's New in Our Office:

     In the summer of 2021 we began using a Nomad x-ray machine. It is a handheld x-ray machine that is sealed in such a way that when it emits an x-ray, it does not release back scatter radiation. This allows it to be safely held by the person administering the x-rays. 

Office Makeover

​​​Digital Records:

     Starting in the summer of 2022 we have been working on updating the overall look of our office. Our goal was to improve the look and feel of our office without going through major costly renovations. Special thanks go out to all those local companies that helped us out: Heather Horning painting the office interior, Home Connection put in our new flooring, and Casey Helling is responsible for all the local photos we are featuring on our walls.

​​​Primemill/Same Day Crowns:

     In December 2022 we began using a Trios 4 digital scanner. This allows us to do digital impressions for crowns and implants as well as some mouth guards. It is a great alternative to the messy and sometimes unpleasant impression material that is routinely used. Some procedures still require traditional impressions, but the digital impression is a fantastic options for  many procedures.

     In November 2021 we added computers and monitors to every operatory. This allows us to access patient records and view x-rays in each operatory without having to dig for a paper chart.
