In-Room Computers

Chairside computers to explain conditions and procedures are beneficial to doctors and patients!

One of the ways OC Lifetime Dental provides no-wait, efficient service to our patients is through the use of chair-side computers.

A computer in each treatment room gives the doctor, the staff and the patient access to all patient records, X-rays, previous restorations, and images of the patient’s teeth and gums obtained from the intraoral camera.

Advantages to Chairside Computers

Chairside computers are useful for a number of reasons and are available to enhance your dental experience. Common uses of computers in the treatment room include:

  • Digital Imagery – Through the use of digital photography and computer imaging technology, we can give you a vision of what your new smile will look like after any number of different types of restorations, to help you make the choice that best fits your needs – and your budget!
  • The ability to demonstrate outcomes, using the suggested course of treatment for your dental condition.
  • Recording patient notes, entering treatment plans, and updating treatment progress in “real time,” so there is a complete and accurate record of every dental visit.
  • An invitation to our patients to become “partners” with us in their care, so they feel knowledgeable and empowered when they make decisions about their treatment.
  • The ability to have the patient’s dental images projected on a screen, for constant reference, as we perform a specific procedure.
  • An educational resource to provide our patients with information about their condition and possible treatment options.
