TECHNOLOGY


At Crane Dental, we aim to provide the latest dental technology.  We always thoroughly research products and only invest in certified products, providing you the patient with the safest, most hygienic and comfortable equipment from the leading manufacturer's.

Staff constantly continue with further education, keeping us a step ahead with new developments in both equipment and dental procedures and the materials we use. 


DIGITAL X-RAYS

Digital x-rays are more comfortable and exposes our patients up to 90% less radiation than conventional x-rays.  You will be exposed to less radiation from a full set of our x-rays than a short flight to Spain!

  • immediate observation of images
  • high resolution images
  • data storage
  • communication with other practitioners/laboratories
  • less radiation
  • ease of use
  • patient comfort


INTRA ORAL CAMERA

With the aid of a small camera that can go in your mouth we are able to give you a guided tour! It is a very useful tool for showing patients what the dentist is looking at and by finding a way of diagnosis and treatment planning.

Digital intra oral cameras enable you to see parts of your mouth that would ordinarily only been visible to your dentist/hygienist, allowing you to visualise what you could previously only imagine...

Digital photography enables us to:

  • Explain why treatment is necessary
  • Analyse smile problems and discuss solutions
  • Send images to dental laboratories and colleagues
  • Demonstrate the results of treatment
  • Record problems and monitor progress

The intraoral camera handpiece is approximately the size and shape of a dental mirror. It has a built-in light source, and serves as a tiny video camera that allows us to zoom in on one tooth with 25 times magnification, or give you a "video tour" of your entire mouth. The images are displayed on a television or computer monitor, so you'll be able to see problems such as worn or broken fillings, cracked teeth, plaque deposits, cavities next to fillings and excessive wear.  

The intraoral camera allows you to be an active partner in your dental treatment by enabling you to see what we see inside your mouth. With a clear understanding of your dental conditions, you'll be able to make treatment decisions with confidence, after all they are your teeth!

THE WAND - VIRTUALLY PAINLESS INJECTIONS

The Wand® is the latest advancement in pain-reducing dentistry.  It is a computer-controlled device used to administer anaesthetic - for virtually pain free injections! 

It does not look or work like a "traditional" dental syringe or needle.  The device looks like a ball point pen. Ideal for patients who are uncomfortable or phobic with this procedure.

Before administering injections with the Wand®, your dentist or dental therapist will rub a topical anaesthetic on the injection site. The Wand® delivers anaesthetic at a consistent pressure and volume, and adjusts to changes in tissue. Additionally, the anaesthetic is delivered first, insuring that the injection from the tiny needle will be painless.

  • Painless
  • Doesn't look like a needle
  • Numbing process is faster
  • Wears off quicker (less rubber lip/face sensation)
  • FOR ANXIOUS PATIENTS AND CHILDREN
