Our practice
At Colchester Specialist Dental Centre, we have five surgeries and specialist equipment to support precision diagnostics, planning and treatment. These include three high-powered microscopes for endodontic work and a low-dose CBCT scanner for 3D imaging. We offer IV or inhalation sedation for certain treatments. We follow strict guidance for procedures under conscious sedation, which can be discussed at consultation.
We have two digital scanners which allow patients to visualise their treatment, and we use rotary endo motors for all root canal treatment and bespoke systems to support success rates. We generally place Straumann implants at the practice, however we are able to place all implants systems. We use high quality aesthetic labs for all our restorative work and take pride in providing high quality and long-lasting results for our patients.
