Our dental technology
i-CAT 3D imaging, iTero digital scanning, VELscope oral-cancer screening, and guided implant surgery — precision tools for safer, gentler care.
Modern technology lets us diagnose more accurately, treat more gently, and plan implants with millimeter precision.
Advanced technology, better results
Great dentistry today is powered by great tools. At Oakland Family Dental, we've invested in modern technology that makes your care more precise, more comfortable, and more predictable — from diagnosis to the finished result.
i-CAT 3D X-Ray
Our i-CAT cone-beam scanner captures stunning, full-definition 2D and 3D images — often at a lower dose than a traditional panoramic X-ray. This 3D view is essential for planning implants with millimeter precision and for diagnosing problems that flat X-rays can miss.
iTero® Digital Scanner
No more goopy, uncomfortable impression trays. The iTero scanner captures a precise 3D digital model of your teeth in minutes, so we can plan treatment accurately and even preview your results — whether it's Invisalign or a new restoration.
VELscope® Oral Cancer Screening
Dr. Sheehan, certified in dental oncology from the Roswell Park Cancer Institute, uses the VELscope system to enhance the visualization of oral abnormalities. This quick, painless screening helps detect concerns early, when they're most treatable.
Guided implant surgery & sedation
By combining 3D imaging with digital planning, Dr. Sheehan performs guided implant surgery for predictable, precise results — and comfort-focused sedation options keep your experience relaxed from start to finish.
