Recently the practice has installed advanced radiographic imaging facilities to allow precise treatment planning and therapy enhancing communication with both referring dentists and their patients concerning their proposed treatment.

The radiographic equipment utilisesa spiral tomographic technique and therefore produces images that measures both height and width of the jawbone. In relation to the placement of dental implants this is invaluable and until recently, such information was only available from the use of a conventional CT scan which involves a much higher radiation dosage and is not usually available within a practice setting.

Additionally this entire system is completely digital allowing for a reduction in radiation dosage (compared to conventional films), detailed manipulation of images (enabling treatment planning and communication) and, if technically feasable, the potential to email images to referring practitioners. At the time of writing this page, this system is only available in about 6 other UK sites (mainly dental hospitals).
