At Mentone Family Dentist, we’re committed to delivering the most effective treatments for our patients. That’s why we’re constantly investing in new diagnostic and treatment technologies that result in better outcomes and improved health for our patients.
 
EMS Airflow - Guided Biofilm Therapy
EMS Airflow is an advanced teeth cleaning technology which is gentler, quicker, and more effective than other teeth cleaning methods.
This technology uses air and a fine powder to remove stains and calculus, cleaning and polishing in one single procedure. No more scrapers, brushes or abrasive pastes!
Airflow technology is able to clean deeper and more effectively than other teeth cleaning methods, is safe for natural teeth, restorations and implants, and is minimally invasive and pain free.
Patients are offered the option for Guided Biofilm Therapy (the airflow machine) when they book a routine checkup and clean.
 
Fotona Laser
Dental lasers are transforming the ways our dentists perform many treatments, allowing for greater levels of precision, reduced recovery time, and less invasive treatments. Our Fontana Laser is a state-of-the-art technology that is used for a range of teeth and gum treatments.
Laser dentistry is known for its precision and comfort and can help speed up healing time and reduce the risk of infection. This often means less pain and bleeding for patients, and often, no stitches or anaesthesia are needed.
Patient Benefits of Fotona Laser Dentistry:
- Precision and Safety: Targets only necessary areas, protecting surrounding tissues.
- Less Discomfort: Often requires less anaesthesia, easing post-treatment pain.
- Quick Recovery: Can promote faster healing, reducing downtime.
- Versatile: Effective for various dental treatments, both cosmetic and restorative.
 
Trios 3D Scanner
Digital intra-oral 3D scanners, or digital impression technology allows us to take dental impressions that are touch-free and 100% precise. Digital impressions are faster and more comfortable than traditional methods (no more messy putty in trays).
Our Trios 5 3D scanner is a small wand shaped tool that uses a laser to scan your teeth, gums and bite, generating a 3D model on screen in real-time. The entire process only takes a few minutes.
Using the Trios 5, we can capture highly accurate 3D images of your mouth enabling us to plan your treatments with greater precision and accuracy.
Incorporating yearly scans into your dental examination allows us to monitor your oral health more comprehensively. We can detect subtle changes or issues that might not be visible through traditional methods, ensuring that potential problems are addressed early, often resulting in less invasive and more cost-effective treatments. We are offering a free 3D scan for all patients – ask Dr. Eshan about getting your teeth scanned at your next visit.
 
CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography)
- Advanced Diagnostics: The CBCT machine offers precise 3D imaging crucial for complex procedures like implant placements, jaw evaluations, and intricate endodontic cases.
- Increased Safety and Comfort: It reduces radiation exposure and shortens scanning times, improving patient comfort and safety.
- Precision in Treatment: For dental implants, CBCT imaging reveals detailed bone structures and nerve locations, ensuring accurate placements. It's also invaluable in orthodontics for assessing tooth orientation and in root canal therapy to identify root configurations and hidden infections.
 
Ozone Therapy
Ozone Therapy is a revolutionary addition to our holistic dental treatments, harnessing the natural antibacterial and healing properties of ozone. Ozonated water, ozone water spray, and ozone air purification are used throughout our clinic to disinfect surfaces, purify the air, and enhance patient care during treatments.
In dentistry, ozone therapy can eliminate harmful bacteria, promote healing, and reduce the need for chemicals and antibiotics. This makes it particularly effective for treating gum disease, tooth decay, and infections.
Patient Benefits of Ozone Therapy:
- Chemical-Free Disinfection: Natural and safe treatment for eliminating harmful bacteria.
- 100% safe and biocompatible
 
Phase Contrast Leica Microscope
The Phase Contrast Leica Microscope allows us to analyse your oral microbiome at a microscopic level, providing an overview of the bacteria present in your mouth. This advanced technology helps us assess oral health issues like gum disease by identifying harmful bacteria that can cause inflammation, infections, and other systemic health conditions.
By visualising live bacteria in real time, we can tailor personalised treatment plans that target the root cause of gum disease or other oral concerns.
Patient Benefits of Phase Contrast Biological Microscopy:
- Precision Diagnosis: Identifies harmful bacteria that contribute to gum disease.
- Preventative Care: Early detection allows for targeted treatments, improving long-term outcomes.
- Holistic Insights: Helps connect oral health to overall wellness, aligning with our holistic approach
 
Zumax Microscope
The Zumax Microscope is a cutting-edge tool that enhances the precision of dental procedures by magnifying even the smallest details of your teeth and gums. By using advanced optics and illumination, it allows us to perform treatments with greater accuracy, helping to achieve better results for procedures like root canals, fillings, and gum surgeries.
This technology is particularly valuable for minimally invasive dentistry, as it enables us to preserve as much natural tooth structure as possible.
Patient Benefits of the Zumax Microscope:
- Enhanced Precision: Greater visual detail supports accurate diagnosis and treatment.
- Minimally Invasive: Supports conservative treatments that protect natural teeth.
 
NSK VarioSurg 3
The NSK VarioSurg 3 is an advanced ultrasonic surgical system designed for precision and efficiency in dental procedures. Using ultrasonic vibrations, this technology allows for minimally invasive bone surgery, such as wisdom tooth removal, implant preparation, and other surgical treatments. It provides superior control and accuracy while reducing trauma to surrounding tissues, helping provide a faster and more comfortable recovery for patients.
Patient Benefits of NSK VarioSurg 3:
- Minimally Invasive: Ultrasonic technology reduces damage to surrounding tissues.
- Enhanced Comfort: Procedures are smoother and more precise, reducing post-treatment discomfort.
- Faster Recovery: Less trauma can result in quicker healing times for surgical treatments.
