Diagnostics
Diagnosis is the most important aspect of dental treatment.
Without right diagnosis, the problem will not be solved.
Following diagnostic tools help to assist doctor to make the accurate diagnosis.
High Definition Digital X-rays
|
Our Sirona Low Radiation x-ray provides sharp images for teeth, jaw, joint images
which are essential to make right diagnosis.
Our Sirona Digital x-rays machines are the most updated German machines
(installed March 2006) to reduce the amount of radiation to almost 10-20 per cent of the film x-rays.
We also protect you with heavy lead apron which will shield 99.99 per cent of the radiation.
In our clinic we are capable of;
- Panoramic x-rays recommended to all new patients and patients
who is difficult with intra-oral x-rays (to view joint jaw, and overview)
- Intra-oral x-rays recommended for sharper view to find problem areas and screen for gum and caries problems
- Cephalometric x-rays - for Facial Esthetics Evaluation and orthodontic evaluation
- Joint x-rays

Digital Photography

Digital Oral Photography gives an opportunity for the patient to see what exactly is happening in their mouth
and is becoming as important as x-rays, as it records the gums and teeth shape and color,
how your bite is, how it looks when people sees you when you are relaxed and when you smile,
and it allows the doctor to evaluate the case even when the patient is not at the chair.
