SALISBURY, NORTH CAROLINA – June marks the first anniversary of Salisbury, NC Dentist Dr. Steve W. Yang’s new practice location.
Yang moved into the new space at 2290 Statesville Blvd. in June 2009 because the practice had outgrown its former office space.
“Our other office was built in 1972, it was upstairs in a corner suite and we couldn’t expand,” he said. “Here, we are in a stand-alone building that provides easy access to all of our patients.”
The new location includes technological upgrades that enable Yang’s staff to provide many of the most current, efficient treatment modalities available.
Electronic medical records streamlined the charting process and helped reduce the amount of paper the office uses and traditional X-rays were replaced with digital X-ray technology, which eliminated the need for the hazardous chemicals used to develop X-ray film. This new technology also exposes patients to less radiation and enables the images to be displayed on computer screens in each exam room almost immediately, Yang said.
