Hello!

As you know by now, because your overall health and safety is our utmost priority, we are closely following every safety and infection control procedure recommended by the ADA and CDC. However, going way beyond these recommendations, in July we installed 2 Jade Surgically Clean Air Filtration Systems. Our office size would require only one Jade unit to kill viruses and bacteria 6 times an hour, but we are so committed to you that we have installed 2 units, one in front of each dental chair. You can be assured that our air is always the safest because we leave the systems on 24/7.

The Jade is patented and industry-leading and is the only air purification system that incorporates 6 different technologies which include, Hydroxl, UV and electronic cell catalytics, and Hepa-RX. The Jade is measured and peer-reviewed to eliminate viruses less than 0.1 microns (the corona virus is measured at .125 microns) and is tested globally with over 70,000 units installed worldwide.

With Epic Dentistry, Dr. Cortese can treat a number of dental health issues with greater accuracy and significantly less discomfort. Read on to learn when Epic Dentistry might be used to serve you and why the benefits are so revolutionary.

Benefits of Epic Dentistry

Treatments completed with Epic Dentistry have several unique benefits when compared to traditional dental care methods. Some of these benefits include:

Enhanced Precision—Laser dentistry allows for pinpoint precision, eliminating risk from your procedure and helping ensure optimal outcomes.

Increased Comfort—Care with Epic Dentistry is less painful than the alternatives, requiring little to no anesthetic for most procedures.Treatment sites bleed less and heal faster, causing less postoperative discomfort.

Speed & Convenience—More treatments are able to be completed in a single appointment and with fewer steps thanks to the Epic Dentistry system. Get out of the dental chair faster thanks to rapid care with laser dentistry.

Applications for Epic Dentistry

Epic Dentistry is a gentler, more precise method for procedures involving the soft tissue of the gums and mouth. It can be applied to treat conditions including:

Periodontal Disease—The Epic Dentistry laser can be used to remove harmful bacteria from between the gums and teeth without the discomfort of metal tools. This helps promote natural healing and reverse the early stages of periodontal disease.

Oral Lesions—With Epic Dentistry, painful canker sores and lesions can be treated quickly and directly. These procedures can address lesions on the lips, gums, inner cheeks, and tongue to provide almost instantaneous relief from pain and allow for a rapid recovery.

Oral Surgery—While oral surgery can be necessary, the traditional scalpel and stitches may not be. Surgeries completed with the Epic Dentistry laser are less painful, require less anesthetic, and heal faster than sutured wounds.

Pain Relief—Epic Dentistry can be used as a therapeutic tool to temporarily increase your blood circulation and relax muscles. With a five to ten minute treatment, Epic Dentistry can relieve oral pain and discomfort.

Teeth Whitening—There are cosmetic applications for Epic Dentistry, too! With laser whitening, you could have dramatically whiter teeth after a single short appointment.

Success Stories

Melanie F.

I visited Dr. Cortese in July 2019 because of painful jaw and neck pain. It hurt to smile and to turn my neck when I was driving. I was miserable. Dr. Cortese did an extensive evaluation of my symptoms and formed a plan that included a daytime and nighttime appliance. As of today, December 2019 I feel so much better. Within a few weeks of wearing the appliances I felt tremendous relief of my symptoms. Any time I had a concern they were addressed within the same day of the doctor and his staff. You will be in good hands at this office! Thanks for making me feel better!
