Dr Lidia values technology for the ways in which it can make patient treatment more successful and comfortable. We implement the latest evidence-based technologies into our Melville dental practice to deliver the most precise and modern dental procedures available today.
Technology complements our dentists' advanced training and experience to benefit our patients.
Digital Dental X-Rays
While having questions about radiation exposure is a valid concern, digital dental x-ray technology reduces radiation so dramatically that you actually absorb more from the atmosphere by spending time outside on a sunny day than you will from your routine x-rays.
We also care about our environment. Digital x-rays eliminate the need for chemical development and the disposal of film-based x-ray materials.
Digital x-rays appear instantly on treatment room monitors to diagnose problems quickly. Our dentists will go over your conditions and discuss your options with you.
Intraoral Camera
If you have ever tried to look at your own tooth in a mirror, you know it’s nearly impossible.
Seeing what your dentist sees is beneficial for patients who are seeking to better understand their own oral health. Intraoral cameras snap high-resolution photos of fractured or broken teeth, recession and other oral conditions inside the mouth so you can see them clearly right from the chair.
Rotary Endodontics
Root canals do not have to be painful. Your dentist will expertly anaesthetise the tooth to ensure comfortable care. Root canal treatment is more efficient when using the latest rotary instruments to clean out infected canals and reduce the likelihood of any complications.
Fast and comfortable root canal therapy is possible at our Melville dental clinic.
Televisions in Treatment Rooms
Many patients like to have a distraction to reduce anxiety or quiet the sound of dental instruments. Televisions in our treatment rooms give patients the opportunity to relax and catch up on their favourite programmes or movies.
Telescopic Dentures
Details: Telescopic denture technology can be used for many different dental treatments, including replacing several missing teeth, full arch restorations, and improving loose traditional dentures. It can be supported by natural teeth, dental implants, or a combination of both, making it a flexible option for many patients. This system is especially helpful for people who want better stability, easier cleaning, and a more affordable alternative to full implant treatments. It can also be adjusted or repaired more easily over time, making it a practical long-term solution.
Patients Best Suited For include patients who are missing multiple teeth and want a more secure alternative to traditional dentures. It is a great option for people who still have some healthy natural teeth, those who may not be suitable for full dental implant treatment, or anyone looking for a more affordable solution. It is also ideal for patients who want better comfort, easier cleaning, and a denture that can be adjusted or repaired more easily in the future.
Benefits: One of the biggest unique benefits of telescopic dentures is the combination of strong stability with the convenience of being removable for easy cleaning. Patients often notice improved comfort, better chewing ability, and more confidence compared to traditional dentures because the fit is much more secure. We also see positive long-term outcomes because the design allows for easier repairs, adjustments, and maintenance if dental needs change over time. For many patients, it provides an affordable way to achieve a natural-looking and reliable smile without more complex implant treatment.
