It doesn't look like a syringe. It doesn't feel like a syringe. And it works better than a syringe, resulting in a more pleasant experience. In the era of modern dentistry it would seem fitting to use computers to deliver painless dental anaesthesia and this is exactly what this milestone computer controlled local anesthetic delivery systems does. This revolutionary system consists of two main elements, the CompuDent™ computer and the Wand a lightweight hand piece that looks like a pen. This state-of-the-art technology makes painful injections a thing of the past. So if a phobia of needles and or the thought of pain is stopping you from visiting the dentist, then please call our team to learn more about this revolutionary device. |

The camera can help to diagnose some dental problems but it’s mainly used to show patients any problems they my have such as decay and gum disease. It can also be used to show and record before, during and after treatment photos. However more and more we are using it to give our patients more targeted preventive advice. After all, a picture is worth a thousand words! |

During Root Canal Treatment (RCT) the aim is to eliminate bacteria that lie within the complex root canal system of the tooth. However we cannot see bacteria even with the use of magnification thus rely on mechanical and chemical means to eliminate them however at Dental Sense we use Endox to facilitate bacterial elimination. Endox emits a calibrated electromagnetic impulse directly in the root canal system which is claimed to reduce more than 99.9%of all types of bacterial presence. By removing pulpal residue through vaporization, pain that is commonly associated during and after RCT is greatly reduced/ eliminated. Once disinfected we use thermal obturation techniques to seal the root canal system and prevent further ingress of bacteria. |

To help alleviate any anxiety you may feel whilst your dentist is performing a procedure, DVD goggles are available which allow you to focus your attention on something else by watching a film. The film is viewed on small screens about an inch from your eyes but the device creates the illusion that you are watching it on a screen several feet away. Alternatively watch the same DVd or something completely different on one of our widescreen TV's. Choose a film from our library or bring your own favorite. |
