Intraoral cameras allow you to see images taken from inside your mouth. The camera is only slightly larger than a drinking straw, but it produces quality images that your Armidale, NSW dentist can call up on a monitor for your viewing. This technology allows you to make better decisions about your oral health and helps you understand why Dr Nyepetsi suggests a specific course of treatment.

Traditionally when a client needs a crown, denture, orthodontic retainers, or implant tooth e.t.c, the dentist will have to take impressions (i.e., moulds of the teeth) for these procedures. The Primescan is used to Scan the teeth to produce a digital impression which can now be shared with a dental technician to make a dental prosthesis. The use of Primescan eliminates discomforts that are accompanied by traditional impressions such as bad taste from materials, gagging from materials that can potentially run into the throat, and a possible need to repeat the impressions if the quality is deemed unsatisfactory. The Primescan provides a quick digital of impressions in a matter of minutes.

Cerec Prime Mill is a milling solution that is used to make dental restoration in a single visit. These include the making of crowns, fillings, and dental bridges. Traditionally, a client will come to see their dentist, and if they needed a crown, bridge, or ceramic filling they would then have to schedule another appointment to prepare the tooth for a crown, and have the moulds taken. The moulds will then be sent to the technician to make a crown or ceramic filling, then two to three weeks later the crown will be put on the tooth on the second visit. This technology eliminates the need for multiple steps and allows patients to have crowns in one visit, with the entire treatment done under one numbing

Once the crown has been milled in the Cerec Primemill, the crown is then placed in a cerec speedfire furnace for sintering. Following that, the crown can now be polished and cleaned before being put on to the tooth

Orthophos Axeos is a 3D scanner that allows efficient delivery of patient care without the need to be referred to another place for the scan.
