Computer Imaging

A digital photograph of your smile is taken at the consultation and manipulated on-screen using a specially designed graphics program. Your direct feedback as the design develops allows us to create and refine the image of your ideal smile in front of your eyes. We take great care to show you only predictable results.

T-Scan

This sophisticated device provides much more useful information about your bite than any other technique. Traditional bite recording paper will only mark where there are contacts between teeth. The T-Scan not only shows where the contacts are but how hard they are and the order in which the contacts occur. This offers a level of precision in developing and adjusting a stable bite that was previously unachievable.

JVA (Joint Vibration Analysis)

This is an elegantly simple device that can quickly give us precise and detailed information about the health of the jaw joints (temporomandibular joint or TMJ). Jaw joint problems sometimes make noises you are aware of such as pops or clicks, but also low level noise that you won't be able to hear. Accurate diagnosis of these problems is essential in planning the correct approach to treatment.

Lasers

The laser is a very precise and powerful tool used to correct gum levels, treat gum disease and stop bleeding. As the beam is highly focused it causes much less trauma, post-operative swelling and discomfort than conventional treatments. We use the highest independently rated laser system imported from the USA.

Painless Anaesthesia - The Wand

Painful and ineffective injections of the past were responsible for many dental phobias. This local anaesthesia delivery system combined with precise and gentle techniques enables us to keep discomfort and stress levels to an absolute minimum.

Shade-Matching

X-Rite shade-matching technology helps to accurately record the colour of the natural teeth. This helps our ceramist produce carefully colour-matched miniature works of porcelain artistry.
