Over the last decade, the face of dentistry has been forever changed by the advancements found through technology.
What once was just imagined, can be accomplished today.

Our office, since its inception in 1983, has strived to incorporate the latest techniques and technology which will help enable our patients to, not only keep their teeth and oral health, but to be comfortable in doing so.
Since the year 1995 we have used digital radiography to reduce our patients x-ray exposure over 90%.
In 2002, we became the first dental office in, Lenawee and Hillsdale County Michigan, to incorporate the Waterlase hard and soft tissue laser into daily practice. This technology can be used to prepare and restore teeth, often without the need for anesthesia. Benefits to the patient include; no numbness, no whine of the dental high speed drill, and tooth colored restorations. In 2002 we also added the Twilite laser which can be used in soft tissue surgery and whitening teeth. The addition of the Periolase MVP-7 laser provides the ability to treat gum disease without scalpel and suture.
The year 2003 brought the addition of T-Scan II to the office. T-Scan II is a computerized bite analysis program used in TMJ, Periodontal, and Crown and Bridge procedures.
Electric handpieces were also a welcome addition to our practice in 2004. Electric handpieces significantly reduce the dreaded 'whine of the drill' in those instances when a laser cannot be used.
The year 2005 brings the addition of a Seiler Revelation Microscope. This microscope allows the staff to work at powers of magnification up to 20 X. The microscope also utilizes a digital camera and video camera to help patients understand each procedure.
In 2006, the practice continues to move away from simply filling holes in teeth by introducing the Carifree System which allows dentist to treat the cause of cavities, before they become cavities.This exciting, diagnostic and therapeutic, system has the potential to save patients time, money, and the need to repeatedly have cavities filled.
In 2007, our laser dentistry technology took a big step forward with the addition of the Powerlase AT . This laser's technology allows users to preform many more procedures without the need for anesthetic.
With the arrival of 2008, the practice will introduce the Cadent Itero System. The Cadent Itero is a laser optical scanner that virtually eliminates the need for crown and bridge impressions.
As Dr. Schalter celebrates his twenty-sixth year of practice in Hudson, Michigan, he and his staff are looking forward to the continued positive impact lasers and technology will have on the Midwest Center for Laser Dentistry PLLC and their patients.
Come experience dentistry the way you imagined it could be!
