Air Abrasion

Air Abrasion is a technology that uses a beam or stream of particles that cut into your tooth painlessly as long as the cavity is not too deep.

The beam of particles is quiet, quick and very effective. Air abrasion is also a very effective diagnostic tool. If the dentist is not sure whether a cavity is big or small, the x-ray may not always be helpful, the air abrasion technique can tell is the size of the cavity very quickly and painlessly.

Cavities can be found when they are small so the fillings are also small and the strength of your tooth is preserved.
