Not a fan of the sensations or noises that come from a dental drill when fixing a cavity? No problem. At Bender Dental Care, we use air abrasion as a more comfortable and subtle alternative to repair your cavity so you can enjoy a more positive dental experience.
Did you know that you can have a cavity filled with no drills, no needles, no shots and no pain? Thanks to micro air abrasion dentistry, we can painlessly remove the decayed or damaged portion of a tooth without the use of a dental drill.
Instead of spinning drill elements, micro air abrasion uses a concentrated blast of air that contains very fine particles of aluminum oxide, a common ingredient in many toothpastes. Working in a method similar to a sandblaster, air abrasion blasts away the decay and leaves healthy tooth material intact. This process results in greater conservation of your natural tooth structure, helping keep your tooth healthy and strong. Because micro air abrasion uses a simple spray of air and powder, it is minimally invasive, gentle, quiet and fast.
Our patients find micro air abrasion to be much more comfortable and pleasant than traditional drilling, as it eliminates the noise, smells and vibration typically associated with using a dental drill. And perhaps the best part of all is that we usually do not need to use anesthetic, so you have no need to feel nervous about getting a shot.
To learn more about the benefits of micro air abrasion, we invite you to call or visit our office today. We are eager to care for your smile!

Dr. Bender is a very good dentist and does a great job. I went to another dentist to get my teeth cleaned just because it was cheaper....was I sorry! The other dentist couldn't even tell I had some fillings in the back because he did such a good job.Sarah Katalak2024-01-24The most amazing dentist I've ever been to! Friendly and knowledgeable staff and they are so focused on preventative care. They really take the time to explain the "why" behind every procedure and equip you with the knowledge you need to take care of your teeth, gums, and overall health for the long haul. You can tell they keep up with modern dentistry as well as I have experienced techniques and technology that I've never seen before at any other dentist. Thank you Bender Dental!!Eric Bradley2024-01-23Everyone is friendly and professional. We are able to talk about any work that is needed and schedule as appropriate.
