This page will list the technologies used in your practice.
Intraoral Camera
An intraoral camera allows us to show you exactly what we see inside your mouth in real time. This small, high-resolution camera captures detailed images of your teeth and gums and displays them on a screen so you can better understand your oral health.
Seeing these images together helps us explain conditions such as tooth decay, cracks, worn fillings or gum inflammation. It also makes it easier for patients to understand recommended treatments and feel confident about their care.
Intraoral cameras are commonly used during routine check-ups, preventative dentistry appointments and when assessing restorative or cosmetic treatments.
Treatments This Technology Helps With:
- Check-ups and preventative dentistry
- Diagnosing cavities and cracked teeth
- Monitoring gum health
- Treatment planning for crowns, veneers and restorations
TRIOS Digital Scanner
The TRIOS digital scanner allows us to create highly accurate 3D images of your teeth without the need for traditional dental impressions. Instead of messy putty moulds, we use a small handheld scanner that captures precise digital models in minutes.
This technology improves both comfort and accuracy while helping us plan treatments more efficiently. The digital scans can be used to design restorations and orthodontic solutions with exceptional precision.
Patients often appreciate how quick and comfortable the scanning process is, especially when planning cosmetic or restorative treatments.
Treatments This Technology Helps With:
- Invisalign® clear aligner treatment planning
- Crowns and bridges
- Dental implants
- Cosmetic dentistry such as veneers
- Monitoring changes in your smile over time
CT Scanner (3D Cone Beam Imaging)
Our 3D CT scanner provides detailed, three-dimensional images of your teeth, jaw and surrounding structures. This advanced imaging technology allows our dentists to see far more than traditional X-rays, helping us diagnose problems and plan treatments with exceptional accuracy.
By visualising bone structure, nerve pathways and tooth positioning in 3D, we can perform complex procedures more safely and predictably.
CT scans are especially valuable when planning treatments that require precise placement or surgical care.
Treatments This Technology Helps With:
- Dental implant planning
- Wisdom tooth assessments and extractions
- Diagnosing jaw or bone conditions
- Complex root canal treatment
- TMJ and bite evaluations
OPG & Digital X-Rays
Digital X-rays and OPG (orthopantomogram) imaging allow us to capture detailed views of your teeth, roots and jaw structures quickly and safely. These images help detect issues that may not be visible during a standard examination.
Digital technology means significantly lower radiation exposure compared to traditional X-rays while providing clear, instant images for diagnosis.
OPG scans give a full panoramic view of your mouth, which helps us assess overall oral health and identify hidden problems before they progress.
Treatments This Technology Helps With:
- Routine dental check-ups
- Detecting cavities between teeth
- Monitoring bone levels and gum health
- Assessing wisdom teeth
- Planning orthodontic, implant and restorative treatments
Soft Tissue Laser
Soft tissue lasers allow us to perform a variety of dental procedures with greater precision and comfort. This advanced technology uses focused light energy to treat gum tissue while minimising bleeding, swelling and recovery time.
Laser dentistry can make many treatments quicker and less invasive compared to traditional techniques. It also promotes faster healing and can often reduce the need for sutures.
Patients appreciate the gentle nature of laser treatment, especially when procedures involve sensitive gum tissue.
Treatments This Technology Helps With:
- Gum contouring and cosmetic smile improvements
- Treating gum disease
- Frenectomy procedures
- Managing inflamed gum tissue
- Assisting with minor oral surgical procedures
