Dental Technology

Advanced Dental Technology

Welcome to the 21st Century dentistry at Dr. Turners Implant and Cosmetic Dental Centers in Mumbai.

 

Today, more than ever, dentistry is a dynamic field, changing very, very quickly. We are always on the top of any technology that can help us achieve our target successfully time after time. Our patients appreciate our efforts toward this paradigm shift in dental technology only to improve and cross all barriers towards excellence in dentistry. This finally reflects in our work and their results!

 

This is our commitment of excellence at  Dr.Turners Implant Cosmetic Dental Centers, where your comfort and pioneering dentistry come hand in hand. We also pledge to involve you in the decision making process so that you are aware of all your treatment options and can select the care that is best for you.

Digital Imaging
Radiographs are an invaluable tool in diagnosis and treatment planning.. There are many guidelines that we follow. Radiographs allow us to see everything we cannot see with our own eyes. Radiographs enable us to detect cavities in between your teeth, determine bone level, and analyze the health of your bone. We can also examine the roots and nerves of teeth, diagnose lesions such as cysts or tumors, as well as assess damage when trauma occurs. 

 

Dental radiographs are invaluable aids in diagnosing, treating, and maintaining dental health. Exposure time for digital dental radiographs is extremely minimal. Dr .Turners Dental Centres   utilizes Digital Imaging Technologies within the office. With digital imaging, exposure time is about 50 percent less when compared to traditional radiographs. Digital imaging can also help us retrieve valuable diagnostic information. We may be able to see cavities better.Digital X rays of all our patients allows us to store patient images, and enables us to retrieve them easily whenever the need be

 

TEETH IN AN HOUR (Immediate Function)/CAD- CAM assisted bioengineering Science and Precision Implant dentistry:

 

Nobel Biocare, creators of the Teeth-In-An-Hour technology and trademark have been at the forefront of implant dentistry for years. They are a recognized leader in the development of cutting edge technologies and solutions for dentists worldwide.

 

The way Dr. Turner and associates are  able to provide implant  Teeth in an Hour  is by using precision surgical techniques combined with sophisticated computer technology.

Using a CT scan of your jaw structure and three-dimensional computer imaging technology, the exact placement of the implant abutments is planned out before your appointment.

The implant surgery is done virtually on the 3-D image, and when  Dr Turner and his team deems the placement of the implants acceptable, the surgical guide is virtually created.

The treatment plan is now sent to Sweden via modem and a precise surgical guide(NOBEL GUIDE*) is created which arrives back in their Mumbai office in 5 days.

 

A precise surgical guide(NOBEL GUIDE*) is thus created, and then then implants are placed in a precise position through the guide  for optimum esthetics and function
Because the implants fit exactly into the surgical sites created for them, there is no healing time necessary for the bone to fill in around them, and this is why you can function immediately.

Since so much time and effort is spent in the planning phase and it is so precise, the actual surgical appointment goes fairly quickly.

NOBEL GUIDES *were created through the scientific efforts of biomedical engineers to assist reconstructive dentists in providing the best prediction factor for implant success for practically all types of tooth replacement needs.

Dental Lasers

Lasers have advanced nearly every facet of medicine and we are now pleased to introduce them at the Turners Dental Centers  for safe, fast, comfortable and effective procedures in all scopes of dentistry.

Why Lasers?
  • Procedures performed using soft tissue dental lasers may not require sutures (stitches)
  • Certain laser dentistry procedures do not require anesthesia.
  • Laser dentistry minimizes bleeding because the high-energy light beam aids in the clotting (coagulation) of exposed blood vessels, thus inhibiting blood loss.
  • Bacterial infections are minimized because the high-energy beam sterilizes the area being worked on.
  • Damage to surrounding tissue is minimized.
  • Wounds heal faster and tissues can be regenerated.
THE A-DEC 500 CHAIR:
Considered the Rolls Royce of the Dental Chairs.

 

When it comes to optimizing operator access and patient comfort, the A-dec 500 chair makes no compromises.

 

We pamper our patients with the A-dec 500 dental chair. Through the science of pressure mapping, the unique cushioning reduces pressure points and provides comfortable support across the patient’s entire body.

 

Motion is also critical to your patient’s comfort. The A-dec 500 dental chair synchronizes the chair movement with the natural motion of the patient. This ‘virtual pivot’ keeps the patient from having to readjust when the chair is lowered or raised.

MAGNIFICATION LOUPES:

It is often the biggest challenge during a procedure to be able to completely visualize what you are working on Dental Loupes allow the dentist   to see more and ensure an excellent end results.

At the Turners Dental offices, the Magnification loupes combined with a LED head light  not only magnify the area of interest but also illuminates it for more precision driven dentistry.

INTRA ORAL CAMERAS:

It is perhaps the best tool for diagnosis and treatment planning.

 

This is probably one of the most useful tools that we have for assisting us when we are doing our New Patient Exams. It allows us to see back behind the teeth and it displays the picture on the 20 inch monitor in front of us, so that we can discuss it with you.
