Why Helix Dental
Technology, explained as we use it
We use digital X-rays and scans, and we show them to you on the screen. Your dentist explains what each one is for, what it can and can't tell us, and what the options are, so you can decide at your own pace.
Digital Scans
Your dentist scans your teeth instead of using putty, then shows you the result on the screen.
Comfort First
We numb the area before we start, and you can ask for a break at any point.
General Dentists
When a case needs a dentist with more training, yours says so and refers you.
Early and Saturday Hours
Visits start at 7:30 a.m. on weekdays, and the office is open on Saturday morning.
