Cutting Edge Technology to Deliver State-of-the-Art Results
Our team at Airport Dental is dedicated to using the best technology to get the very best results.
By using the state-of-the-art CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) we can generate 3-D images of dental structures, soft tissue, nerve paths and bones to plan more precise treatments- especially useful for our implant procedures.
A 3D intraoral scanner is an incredibly useful handheld device used to create highly accurate digital impressions of the oral cavity.
Similar to digital x-rays, they are used for the diagnosis and treatment of issues with the teeth, gums and jaws. We use an intraoral scanner during procedures such as root canals and orthodontic treatments, as well as crown and bridge work, to monitor the treatment’s progress and help identify any potential issues at an early stage.
At Airport Dental, we use state-of-the-art guided surgery during the dental implant procedure for the best possible results. Other benefits include:
Reduced risk of infection and faster healing times- guided surgery requires a smaller incision than traditional implant treatments
Less pain- guided surgery is less invasive which can mean a more comfortable experience for the patient
Higher success rates- guided surgery is more accurate and helps ensure the implant is placed in the best possible location.
