Technologically Advanced Dentistry
Dental Technologies Norfolk
As part of our dedication to excellent patient care, Konikoff Family Dentistry utilizes advanced dental technology during all procedures at our Norfolk practice. These technologies increase comfort and convenience, helping patients feel at ease during every office visit. When coupled with Dr. Stephen Konikoff’s precise skills, these tools make for a positive and effective dental experience.

CEREC®
The CEREC® (Chairside Economical Restoration in Esthetic Ceramics) system is used to manufacture tooth restorations like porcelain veneers, crowns, inlays and onlays during your office visit. Traditionally, patients had to wait two to three weeks while a lab created their restorations. With CEREC®, however, Dr. Konikoff and his staff are able to produce high quality tooth-colored ceramic restorations in a single appointment. By being the sole producer of your restoration, Konikoff Family Dentistry can use their knowledge in the fields of cosmetic and restorative dentistry to fashion restorations specifically tailored to you. CEREC® restorations are extremely durable and can be customized to match the color, size, shape, and texture of your surrounding teeth.
Intraoral Camera
Dr. Konikoff and his staff use an intraoral camera so they can give patients a clear picture (literally) of their dental health. This tiny camera aids in the diagnosis of dental problems and serves as an educational tool for patients. As small as a pen, this camera is painlessly moved around inside the mouth while the pictures are displayed for patients to see. By seeing what the dentist sees, the intraoral camera gives our patients a better idea where their problem areas are and what can be done to solve those problems. And by seeing plaque, gum disease, broken teeth and other dental issues firsthand, patients at Konikoff Family Dentistry are better able to understand the procedures that are going to be performed to treat these problems.
