Cosmetic Dentistry
Dallas, TexasDr. Berland pays special attention to the safety and comfort of his patients. He uses only the highest quality, most biocompatible materials, including mercury-free fillings. Only pure distilled water is used during dental procedures. Any accessory or instrument that cannot be discarded after use is thoroughly cleaned and sterilized. Modern advances in treatment, materials or equipment that promise to enhance patient comfort or safety are first evaluated thoroughly by Dr. Berland, and, only after meeting his high standards, incorporated into his patient care regimen. For example, our new Digital Radiography System offers several advantages over traditional X-rays: they are more comfortable, more accurate, and, best of all, have up to 80% less radiation.
