The Latest Technology 
  
One of the ways we invest in our patients is by investing in technology. Some improve our ability to see details and thus carry out our work more effectively. Others improve your comfort: providing you with a clear understanding of your dental health status, or simply helping you enjoy your visit here.

 Digital X-rays

To improve your care we've invested in a new way of looking into your mouth—a procedure that's fast, and incredibly precise – digital x-rays. Digital x-rays use 50-90% less radiation than old-fashioned x-rays. What's even more amazing is that we get an image immediately that is large, clear, and accurate, right next to your chair…ready for discussion. Digital x-ray technology speeds and simplifies the diagnostic part of your treatment, and most importantly allows us to provide a much higher level of care.

Do you want to Zoom!™?

The Zoom! In-Office Whitening System is a revolutionary tooth whitening procedure. It's safe, effective and fast - very fast. In just over an hour, your teeth will be dramatically whiter. Zoom! Whitening is ideal for anyone looking for immediate results. The convenience of Zoom! in comparison to days of wearing trays and gradual whitening makes it the perfect choice for the busy individual.

Before             After

The Zoom! Whitening procedure is simple and painless. It begins with a short preparation to isolate your lips and gums. Then the proprietary Zoom! Whitening Gel is applied, which is activated by a specially designed light. Teeth typically become at least six to ten shades whiter, sometimes more. A five-minute fluoride treatment completes the procedure. You will be amazed with the results! In most cases, your teeth will get even whiter the first few days after the procedure. With proper care and an occasional touch-up at home, your whiter smile will sparkle for years.
 

Invisalign

If you have crowded or shifted teeth, Invisalign may be for you. Invisalign is a way to straighten teeth using a series of invisible or undetectable aligners. An impression of your teeth is made. Using 3- D computer technology, Invisalign makes a series of customized aligners, according to the doctor's instructions. Each set of aligners is worn for about two weeks, gradually moving your teeth millimeter by millimeter until the end result of straighter teeth is obtained. Invisalign does not use metal wires and brackets, so it is comfortable. Brushing and flossing are also easy because Invisalign is removable. Consult Dr. Yi, an Invisalign-trained doctor, if you are interested in Invisalign.

Inter-Oral Camera

It used to be that when your dentist wanted to let you know what was going on inside your mouth, he or she took a look around and then verbally described what they saw. Perhaps you'd even get to look in a mirror, squinting and searching around, trying to understand what he was talking about. But now, thanks to a wonderful new technology called an intra-oral camera, you can relax in your chair while simultaneously observing a real-time movie of the inside of your mouth, magnified 35 times its normal size, on an adjacent computer monitor! Not only does this make it simple to see and understand what Dr. Yi is telling you, but it makes it simple for us to keep incredibly accurate records from one visit to the next.

Window Based Software

At Lee Plaza Dental we are using a state-of-the-art Windows-based practice management software program called "Dentrix". With this system, our computers can take a hold of a huge number of practice management details and streamline them for us. This means that we can spend more time with you in person, and let the computer efficiently and effectively handle appointment scheduling and electronic insurance claim filing. In fact, this system allows us to keep up with the personal details behind your records, so that we can serve you better—like letting us keep a digitized snapshot of you in our software, or giving us a way to attach electronic post-it notes to your appointments with special instructions or reminders.

Entertainment

Our office is equipped with XM satellite radio. You can also watch or listen to a personal  XM satellite radio, DVD or personal CD in each treatment room. We also have a selection of movies you can watch in each treatment room.
