Dr. Ken Siegel believes in staying at the forefront of dentistry. He studies each new dental technology he encounters and asks the question: will this help my patients? If it will, he purchases it. As a result, we equip our office with many of the latest advances in dental technology in order to provide you with the most efficient, accurate and comfortable treatment possible.
3D IMAGING
Our low-radiation dental CT scanner provides detailed panoramic and 360-degree, 3D views of all your oral structures. This data allows Dr. Siegel to provide a precise diagnosis and lay out an effective treatment plan.
HARD TISSUE LASER
Dr. Siegel uses a hard tissue laser to help remove decay, as well as old crowns and veneers, without the need for shots. He also uses it to provide minimally invasive fillings and gum and bone treatments.
K7 EVALUATION SYSTEM FOR TMJ
Dr. Siegel uses the K7 Evaluation System to determine the cause of any TMJ dysfunction you may have. The device measures the motion of your jaw, the sounds of your jaw joint (to detect catching or grinding) and the tension in your jaw muscles to help track down the source of an imbalanced bite.
COMFORT CONTROL SYRINGE
The Comfort Control Syringe is a computer-assisted injection system that enables Dr. Siegel to administer anesthetic very gently and comfortably. This device delivers anesthetic in a small enough volume and at a slow enough speed to be below your body’s pain threshold.
VELSCOPE ORAL CANCER SCREENING
Early detection of oral cancer can increase your survival odds by 66%, which is why we make screening for early signs of cancer an important step in all our new patient exams. Our VELscope oral cancer screening tool makes checking your mouth for oral cancer quick and easy. It uses a special light that makes normal tissues glow to expose potentially cancerous lesions. If we detect any dark regions, we will refer you to an oral surgeon who will take a sample of the tissue to test for a definitive cancer diagnosis.
X-GUIDE DYNAMIC 3D NAVIGATION
Placing dental implants at Dental Excellence of Blue Bell just got a whole lot better. X-Guide®️ is like a GPS, but for placing implants. We’re proudly one of the 1,450 dental offices in the world using this advanced dental technology. With X-Guide®️, Dr. Siegel gains even more control over your dental implant process. The technology integrates with Cone Beam 3D Imaging to navigate the implant placement live during surgery. This allows for even more precise placement of position, angle, and depth. As a result, it improves the implant placement process and your dental implant results.
