3SHAPE TRIOS® 3 INTRAORAL SCANNER

Say goodbye to messy dental impressions! The Trios® intraoral scanner is one more way we ensure you have the best quality dental care. Traditionally, dental impressions have required that we take a physical impression of your mouth that is then sent to a lab to create your crowns, appliances, and clear aligners, but not anymore. The digital scans are much more accurate, they are environmentally friendly and patient friendly (no more gagging). Our dentists are able to better monitor your oral health for example gum recession and wearing down of teeth due to erosion and grinding. Dr Mark Bowes is a Key Opinion Leader for Trios®.

DENTAL MICROSCOPES

With a microscope, dental procedures can be performed more accurately and reliably using variable and adjustable magnification. This will increase the following:
Magnified Image – Microscopes provide 3 x to 30 x magnification with the ability to change views with a simple turn of a dial. Microscopes offer a deeper depth of field view and a wider field of view than traditional dental loupes.
Increased Precision – The increased magnification allows the endodontist to access small, narrow canal opening without unnecessarily removing tooth structure. Debris that must be removed from the root canal before filling the root canal space is also more easily identified.
Improved Illumination – When magnification is used, the available light is spread out and the image appears darker. To compensate for this, an LED light is mounted directly on the microscope head and provides a bright, white light.
Improved Visualisation – Endodontists can only treat what they can see. The microscope lens can be placed directly over the patient’s mouth without any additional discomfort.

BIOLASEⓇ EPIC 10™ DIODE LASER

DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPHY

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.

DIGITAL VIDEOGRAPHY

As part of your smile journey, we will capture videos of you as well as digital photographs. The videos help the dentists to assess your smile whilst you are in motion and acting naturally – rather than depending on still photography where a smile is often staged. This is an important step in Digital Smile Design, as we will take videos during your mock–up (test drive appointment) and you will be able to visualise yourself with your new smile.
