About us · Riverview, FL
Omni Dental Studio invests in technology when it makes diagnosis, treatment, and patient education better — not for its own sake. In practice that means digital X-rays and iTero scans instead of film and putty, 3D imaging for implant planning, and gentler cleanings with Guided Biofilm Therapy.
It makes the visit more precise and easier to understand. Images appear on a screen in front of you, scans replace impression trays, and cleanings rely on warm water and air more than scraping — so you leave knowing exactly what was found and why.
Digital sensors capture images that appear on a screen in seconds — and, according to the practice, use up to 90% less radiation than traditional film.
Why it matters: You see the same image Dr. Merchi sees, so decay between teeth, infection, or bone loss is explained rather than just described.
How often X-rays are needed →A small wand records a precise 3D scan of your teeth — digital impressions instead of trays of impression putty.
Why it matters: Every Invisalign case is planned from an iTero scan, and the same scans support crowns and nightguards without the gag-inducing molds.
Invisalign in Riverview →A 3D cone beam (CBCT) scan shows bone height, width, and nearby structures in three dimensions.
Why it matters: It's used for precise dental implant and surgical planning — including whether a bone graft is needed before an implant.
Dental implants in Riverview →A pen-sized camera shows a close-up of any tooth on the screen in front of you.
Why it matters: Seeing a crack or worn filling yourself makes treatment decisions clearer — and makes it easy to ask questions.
A dental laser is used for gentle, precise soft-tissue treatments.
Why it matters: Targeting only the tissue that needs care is part of the practice's conservative approach.
Gum disease treatment →A Swiss-engineered cleaning protocol: a harmless dye reveals plaque, AIRFLOW® warm water and fine powder lift it away, and the PIEZON® ultrasonic scaler is used only where hardened tartar remains.
Why it matters: Far less scraping than a traditional cleaning — offered as an upgrade to a standard cleaning appointment.
What is Guided Biofilm Therapy? →Professional whitening that takes about 20 minutes and can be added to a cleaning, with a take-home pen and tray included.
Why it matters: Fast, even results under supervision — after an exam confirms your teeth and gums are ready for it.
Teeth whitening in Riverview →The patient portal lets you pick your date, time, and provider any time of day, and new-patient forms are sent before your visit.
Why it matters: Less time on the phone and on paperwork in the office, more time on your care.
New patient information →Omni Dental Studio in Riverview uses digital X-rays, iTero intraoral scanning (digital impressions instead of messy molds), cone beam 3D imaging for implant and surgical planning, intraoral cameras, laser therapy for gentle soft-tissue treatment, and EMS Guided Biofilm Therapy for cleanings.
Yes. The practice's digital X-rays use up to 90% less radiation than traditional film, which makes them very safe for patients of all ages, including children. Pregnant patients should mention it so appropriate precautions are taken. X-rays find cavities, bone loss, and infections that a visual exam can't see.
For Invisalign and many restorations, no — the iTero scanner records a precise 3D digital impression in minutes. Your dentist will tell you if a particular treatment still calls for a traditional impression.
Plaque is dyed so it's visible, then removed with warm water and fine powder (EMS AIRFLOW®) instead of mostly metal scraping, and the PIEZON® ultrasonic scaler is used only where tartar remains. It's available as an upgrade to a standard cleaning at the Riverview office.
A thorough implant evaluation uses X-rays and, when needed, a 3D cone beam scan to assess the bone and plan placement precisely. Whether you need one is decided at your implant consultation, which is complimentary for new patients.
