At Dental Smiles of Joliet, we understand that some patients may feel anxious about dental treatments, particularly those involving drills. Air abrasion technology offers a comfortable and effective alternative for removing tooth decay and preparing teeth for certain procedures.
Air abrasion is a minimally invasive technique that uses a gentle stream of fine particles to remove tooth decay. Similar to a sandblaster, this technology allows our dentists to precisely target and remove decayed areas while preserving healthy tooth structure. This method is often quieter and produces less vibration compared to traditional dental drills, making it a more comfortable experience for many patients.
Minimally invasive: Removes decay while preserving healthy tooth structure.
While air abrasion is a valuable tool, it may not be suitable for all situations. For instance, treating large cavities or removing old fillings may still require traditional methods. Our dentists will assess your individual needs and recommend the most appropriate treatment approach.
