Intraoral Camera

This valuable tool, which looks like a pen, takes high-resolution images and footage of the inside of your mouth. This footage is shown in real time on a monitor, allowing us to examine your mouth and help you visualise any dental concerns. We use intraoral cameras for early detection, treatment planning and patient education.

Digital Impressions/intra-oral scans

Digital impressions make it possible to generate a digital model of your teeth and gums. Using an intraoral scanner, we can capture detailed images of your mouth. This gives us a precise, 3-D replica of your mouth without traditional, messy impressions. We use these impressions to fabricate dental restorations such as crowns, bridges and dentures.

Nitrous Oxide Sedation

Nitrous oxide, or 'laughing gas', is used to calm our anxious patients. It manages dental anxiety so you can get the dental care you need. You’ll inhale a mixture of nitrous oxide and oxygen through a mask and instantly feel relaxed. You can expect to be awake during your treatment, and the effects wear off immediately after treatment.

Laser Whitening

Our laser whitening tool uses an LED light to activate the whitening gel and break down tooth stains and discolouration; it’s an effective way to provide dramatic whitening results in just one visit to our dental clinic. Laser whitening can be effective on surface and intrinsic stains, making it a popular cosmetic option for many patients.

CBCT Cone Beam Technology | white hills dentist

CBCT Cone Beam Technology

We use CBCT, or Cone Beam Computed Tomography, to take 3-D images of your teeth and jawbones. This dental imaging technology uses a cone-shaped x-ray to create digital images that allow us to plan dental procedures. These x-rays help us create precise treatment plans for dental implants, root canal therapy and extractions.

Panoramic X-Rays | dental x-rays white hills vic

Panoramic X-Rays

Panoramic x-rays give us a comprehensive view of your mouth and jaw; in a single image, we can see your upper and lower teeth, jaw joints, nerves, supporting bone and sinuses. We use panoramic x-rays to evaluate your oral health, identify hidden tooth decay, detect bone loss and plan for extractions and other treatments.

Digital X-Rays and Sensors | dentist 3550

Digital X-Rays and Sensors

When you need a dental x-ray, we place electronic sensors into your mouth. The x-ray beam is sent through your teeth and into the sensor, and then these sensors are scanned through the sensor scanner, giving us a clear image on the computer screen. We can then print the image or save it to our system.

We can access dental records at the touch of a button, increasing efficiency and accuracy. If your insurance company or another doctor needs to see your records, we can share that information with them.
