Technology

We incorporate the latest advances in endodontics equipment and techniques to improve and facilitate the way that we care for our patients' teeth in the UK. These result in better dental evaluations and treatment decisions for root canal problems.

Operating Microscope

The modern operating microscope allows us to apply microscopic examination methods and microsurgical techniques in dental care, thereby leading to new levels of diagnosis and therapy. Optimum magnifications and illumination permit the visualization of even the finest details in the tooth structure, details which are simply not visible with the naked eye. This provides an unparalleled level of precision for endodontics.

Digital Radiography

This modern-day replacement to x-ray film, is particularly suited to endodontics. It exposes patients to 50-90% less radiation whilst producing an image of superb quality that is viewed instantaneously on a computer monitor. This helps to reduce treatment time.

Nickel Titanium Rotary Instruments

Nickel titanium's strength makes it highly effective
The files that are used to remove harmful material from the root canals and give them the correct shape are made of a new flexible material. The files are driven by a motor, which reduces the need for using hand instruments. This reduces the time required for preparation.

Cross Infection Control
All equipment used in your mouth is sterilized using the most modern and approved techniques. Disposable materials are discarded after single use and only new rotary nickel titanium instruments are used for preparation.

And for your Comfort
With most endodontic procedures, you'll probably be in a reclined position for up to an hour and a half for each appointment. Therefore it is important that you are as comfortable and relaxed as possible for the duration of the pain-free treatment.

Our 'state-of-the-art' dental chair, with its soft cushioning and full articulated head rest, ensures that your head and neck are supported for maximum comfort. Listen to the music of your choice via CDs and digital radio, using high quality hi-fi, and cordless earphones if you prefer. You are very welcome to bring your own music.
