Improve Your Smile * Improve Your Life

"I realized for the first time that when I laughed I didn't turn away. My wife and kids say, come on Dad show us your smile."
- Howard

At Advanced Cosmetic Dentistry & TMJ, one of our biggest priorities is the continued education and implementation of the latest technological advances into our dental procedures. This is also what sets us apart from the countless other cosmetic dentist practices and TMJ treatment facilities in the world.

Dr. Bufo has been on the leading edge of cosmetic dentistry and TMJ diagnosis and treatment for many years. This is one reason he was hand selected to teach at the renowned Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Studies (LVI). His commitment to patients and his practice was also the catalyst for investing in several high-tech pieces of equipment that cannot be found in most dentist offices. These include:

  • K-7 muscle mapping machines
  • Digital X-ray machines
  • Surgical lasers for reconstructive procedures
  • Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) machine for TMJ therapy
  • Computer controlled local anesthesia injection system
  • iCAT Digital CAT Scan

The iCAT Digital CAT Scan machine was only the second unit of its kind installed in a dental office.  It not only enables Dr. Bufo to see a 360-degree, 3D image of the entire head from any angle, it produces the image in mere seconds. And, because it is a digital technology, it exposes patients to much less radiation.

The iCAT Digital CAT Scan allows Dr. Bufo to conclusively diagnose TMJ and to effectively monitor the patient’s continued progress throughout the treatment cycle.
