With the latest dental technology, our patients benefit from a wide range of treatments more comfortably and efficiently. We’ve been using digital technology to improve the experiences of our patients so that they can benefit from dental care like never before.

 

How are digital technologies improving traditional methods?

 

Digital dentistry has rapidly emerged as an important field within the dental industry. It relies heavily on digital imaging to diagnose, treat, and address any oral health issues more efficiently.

 

Dentists and other medical professionals use a combination of computer-aided design (CAD) software, 3D printing, intraoral scanners, and other digital tools to create restorations or prosthetics for patients. This helps to give patients the best possible treatment results.

 

Improved Accuracy and Predictability of Treatments

 

Digital dentistry techniques have made diagnosis easier and more accurate with the use of digital X-rays, 3D imaging technology and advanced image analysing software. This allows dentists to deliver better care with less time and fewer appointments for their patients.

 

Our clinic in Chalfont St Peter provides 3D CBCT X-rays. This sophisticated dental technology allows us to analyse and map nerve and blood vessels in three dimensions, helping prepare for dental surgery and treatment.

 

Cone-beam computed tomography imaging (CBCT)

 

Thanks to the ability of medical imaging technology to view complex structures like root canals, your dental professional has a better understanding of what is going on during treatment and can therefore lower the chances of any unforeseen complications.

 

Digital methods such as cone-beam computed tomography imaging (CBCT) allow us to capture images with millimetre precision for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.

 

How does digital dentistry work?

 

Our digital dentistry services redefine traditional dentistry with its advantages such as faster treatment time, improved accuracy and reduced radiation exposure.

 

Digital dentistry involves combining cutting-edge technology with highly experienced professionals, so you can trust that you’re in good hands.

 

Digital orthodontics includes a variety of dental treatments. Here are some of the most common ones: Teeth whitening, crowns and veneers, root fillings, dental implants and extractions.

 

Why switch from traditional dentistry to digital dentistry?

 

We are equipped with an on-site digital dental lab, which allows us to craft your crowns and restorations within a single day – so you don’t have to wait for two weeks for them as you might with traditional techniques. 

 

Our one-day smile makeovers are also something that we’re able to offer to patients. Dental treatments do not need to drag on over several appointments, and that’s why we’re embracing the digital revolution for treatment planning over conventional methods.

 

Reduce time and costs

 

We understand that our patients are busy and so we have implemented digital technology for virtual consultations to make it easier for them. This way, they can access cosmetic treatments without having to take out additional time from their schedule.

 

Scanning equipment in digital dentistry

 

As dental professionals, we utilise digital dentistry and its innovative technologies to improve dental care and patient outcomes.

 

From 3D scanning and printing to intraoral imaging and CAD/CAM, digital dentistry makes it easier than ever to get the care you need — quickly, safely, and cost-effectively.

 

The advantages of digital dentistry for the patient

 

Digital dentistry technologies at our dental practice make treatment techniques more efficient. There’s no need for messy dental impressions and our patients, as a result, have a more comfortable experience in the dental chair.

 

Enhanced patient experience

 

We prioritise our relationship with you and ensure that communication is tailored to your convenience. We’re dedicated to providing the latest tools and techniques in dentistry – so you can be sure that when visiting us, you’ll get the highest standard of care.

 

Dental Care, Evolved

 

We strive to deliver an experience that is unrivalled in terms of quality of care and convenience. We use advanced scanning equipment – such as iTero® 3D digital dental scanners which eliminate the need for uncomfortable and untidy putty impressions.

 

With the help of digital dentistry, you can get an immediate view of your teeth. Through digital imaging, we can view and approve the before and after images before treatment.

 

Plus, it’s safe – our digital technologies do not generate any radiation that traditional X-rays usually do.
