3D imaging, same-day CEREC restorations and in-office 3D printing in Bayside, NY
At Bayside Family Dentistry, we use the latest technology to ensure our patients enjoy smooth, comfortable visits and the best possible care for their teeth and smiles. To help us do this, we use the Orthophos® XG 3D. This specialized X-ray device takes complete images of our patients’ teeth and sets us up for success when we’re looking into what could be causing a patient’s issues.
ORTHOPHOS® XG 3D
This X-ray device is the perfect tool for a dental office because it offers a range of programs and diagnostic tools that help us identify concerns with our patients’ teeth quickly and easily. The device was designed to be extremely efficient, and its bite block ensures that we can get the picture we need on the first try. This way, you don’t have to be uncomfortable for any longer than absolutely necessary.
The X-ray is ideal for all our endodontic, periodontal, orthodontic, implant, and surgery patients. Since we can see so clearly into the workings of a patient’s teeth, we can accurately diagnose and treat anyone who comes in with tooth pain, cracked teeth, or those who will be undergoing oral surgery for their wisdom teeth, dental implants, and more. It can even help us perfect the plan we lay out for patients receiving orthodontic treatment.
When you’re dealing with tooth pain, the last thing you want is to wait for treatment, and this device makes diagnosing any issues that much quicker.
The device is special because it offers both 2D and 3D options as a hybrid unit. That means your dentist can trust it for superior image quality, and you can relax knowing that you’re getting the best possible pictures of your teeth for advanced treatment and care. Plus, the device is designed to use a low radiation dose, making it suitable for adults and children.
When you need excellent dental care, work with Bayside Family Dentistry and enjoy faster, more precise treatment planning with detailed X-rays from the Orthophos® XG 3D. Contact us today to learn more about how we can help you.
Dental care in a single visit? It’s not impossible with CEREC. When you need a restoration such as a crown, inlay, onlay or veneer, you can enjoy single-visit treatment thanks to the CEREC system used at our office. The system is efficient and extremely safe. You can trust your teeth and your dental health to Bayside Family Dentistry and the CEREC family of instruments.
CEREC
For over 30 years, CEREC has helped dental patients by creating high-quality ceramic restorations in just one visit to the office.
The workflow allows patients to receive their treatment in just a few steps. It’s also more comfortable, because you don’t have to deal with conventional impression trays.
Patients want a range of treatments available to them in the most comfortable, modern ways possible. With CEREC, you’ll find a solution to your dental needs that works with your busy schedule.
We know that you want fewer appointments and dislike impression trays, and this system serves both. With digital impressions and trustworthy materials, your CEREC restoration will last and provide the durability you need.
The first step is the scan. A digital impression creates precise, natural-color 3D images of your teeth. Then we move on to design, where we create the layout for your restoration. Then it’s on to step three: production.
The CEREC milling unit creates your restoration from a precise design with smooth edges and surfaces. When needed, restorations are then sintered and glazed in the CEREC SpeedFire furnace, and you’re ready to go. That’s it! You’re out the door and finished in just one visit to our office.

Bayside Family Dentistry has its own SprintRay Pro 2 3D printer right in our office. Instead of sending every appliance out to a dental lab and waiting for it to come back, we can design and print many of them here, often in far less time.
SprintRay Pro 2
Working from a digital scan of your teeth, the SprintRay Pro 2 lets us produce dental items such as night guards, temporary crowns, surgical guides for dental implants, and precise models of your teeth for planning treatment. Because each piece is made from your own digital scan, it’s designed to fit you accurately.
In-office 3D printing means fewer messy impressions, shorter waits and fewer trips to our office. It also gives Dr. Caz more control over the quality and fit of what goes into your mouth, because the work is done here rather than at an outside lab.
