Dental Technology
Unearthing the benefits of modern dental technology
Our investment in the latest dental technology ensures that assessment, diagnosis and treatments are carried out to the highest degree of accuracy and precision.
By leveraging state-of-the-art technology and staying up to date with the latest developments, our team can save you time and ensure optimum comfort during your visit.
We invite you to explore the dental technology at CBD Dental to see how it can benefit you.
CEREC (ceramic restorations)
CEREC same-day restorations are made using advanced CAD/CAM technology.
The dentists at CBD Dental utilise this revolutionary technology whereby custom dental crowns and ceramic restorations are fabricated and fitted at our practice, all in one visit!
There are no uncomfortable impressions, temporary crowns or fillings, and no need for a follow-up appointment.

Advanced X-Rays
OPG (Orthopantomograph)
The advanced screening x-ray known as an OPG (Orthopantomograph) is used to help them evaluate the anatomy of a patients jaw, or to identify potential dental and structural problems before procedures such as root canals or wisdom teeth removal can be undertaken.
The panoramic x-rays capture all teeth, including the position of teeth that haven’t yet surfaced. The OPG is completed in seconds and is a safe option, leaving no radiation in the patient’s body.
CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography)
We also offer CBCT scans (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) which is a non-invasive x-ray that captures a 3D image of a patient’s mouth, jaw, throat, neck, teeth, ears, and nose.
A CBCT enables our dentists to take detailed and comprehensive images to assist with identifying and treating more complex dental cases such as TMJ disorders or the placement of dental implants.
iTero® 3D Scanner
If you are considering straightening your smile with Invisalign® clear aligners, we will use an iTero® scanner to take a 3D scan of your teeth.
In minutes, the iTero® creates a digital image of your mouth so your CBD Dentist can effectively create a treatment plan for your custom aligners.
Laser Dentistry
Laser dentistry offers a wide range of applications used to enhance treatment outcomes, minimise post-operative pain and shorten recovery time.
Our dentists are specifically trained to use laser technology for both restorative and cosmetic treatments.
Your CBD Dentist may recommend laser dentistry during your consultation – this can help with the following:
- Tooth decay
- Viewing gum and tooth tissues
- Whitening for discoloured teeth
- TMJ disorder treatments
Many anxious patients opt for laser treatment as it reduces the need for dental drills, making them feel at ease.
