CEREC

Innovative CEREC technology enables us to create and fit tooth-coloured and highly aesthetic crowns, onlays and inlays in a single visit to our practice. The CEREC process is comfortable, quick, and simple. We use digital scans to capture accurate images, removing the need for messy and uncomfortable impressions. The dental restoration is milled from a ceramic block while you wait, providing an immediate solution. With just one appointment needed for CEREC restorations, it’s easier to fit your appointment into your daily routines.

CBCT scans

CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) technology allows us to view a highly detailed 3D image of your teeth, soft tissues and jawbone after a scan taking just twenty seconds in total. We can use CBCT scans to aid precise diagnosis and planning, and to give you a better understanding of your need for treatment.

At Shine Dental Clinic, we use CBCT scans for the following reasons:

  • Dental implant placement – to assess bone levels in more detail and ensure implants are placed in optimum areas.
  • Removal of impacted teeth – to view the tooth in relation to the nerves and sinuses to ensure safe removal.
  • Orthodontic cases – to precisely plan accurate tooth movements.
  • TMJ cases – to view the jaw joint in greater detail and enable assessment and diagnosis of potential issues.
