Dr. Herring's clinic is committed to utilizing state-of-the-art technology to enhance diagnosis and treatment. This includes small volume cone-beam CT (computed tomography) for highly accurate 3D radiographic images, digital imaging for reduced radiation exposure, and high-quality Carl Zeiss surgical microscopes for unparalleled magnification and illumination during procedures.
