Ultrasonics

The Luxury of Ultrasonics at Maplewood Family Dental

What Are Ultrasonics?

Ultrasonics are instruments that use sonic energy to remove plaque and tartar. These instruments have smaller tips that allow Dr. Chidester to complete treatment with greater precision, giving patients better results.

How Do Ultrasonics Work?

Just as “ultraviolet” means electromagnetic waves that are beyond the range of human vision, “ultrasonic” means sound waves that have a frequency too high for us to hear. Our ultrasonic tools vibrate at these high frequencies, which makes them highly effective at performing critical tasks in the confined spaces inside and around a tooth.

Maplewood Family Dental Uses Ultrasonics to Improve Your Treatment

Our use of ultrasonic instruments at Maplewood Family Dental is just one of the many ways we ensure that our patients get the best possible dental treatment. Give us a call at (919) 438-3933 or send us an email if you have any questions about the equipment we use or if you would like to set up an appointment.
