Innovation in dentistry: how Capital Dental uses cutting-edge technology for superior care

At Capital Dental, we believe that innovation is key to providing our patients with the highest standard of dental care. Our commitment to advanced technology reflects our values of trust and excellence, ensuring each patient receives care that is both cutting-edge and compassionate. By using tools such as our dental microscope, our dental scanner, an in-house mill for creating crowns, and a specialized laser for treatment, we enhance our ability to deliver exceptional results in a comfortable, efficient environment. Here’s how our dedication to innovation benefits our patients.

Why innovation is essential in modern dentistry

Modern dental technology has transformed the way we diagnose and treat oral health issues. Innovation allows us to work with greater accuracy, speed, and patient comfort, providing a level of care that wouldn’t be possible with traditional methods. At Capital Dental, we view our commitment to innovation as a reflection of our values. We strive to build trust with our patients by using the most advanced tools available, ensuring they receive the highest quality care.

For us, innovation is about creating an experience that is efficient, effective, and patient-centered. By investing in the latest dental technology, we are better equipped to fulfill our commitment to excellence, meeting each patient’s unique needs with precision and care.

Our dental microscope: increased precision making crowns, bridges, fillings, and completing accurate root canal treatments

The microscope is one of the most advanced tools in our practice, providing exceptional clarity and precision in dental procedures. This powerful microscope enables us to perform intricate treatments such as crowns, bridges, fillings, and especially root canal treatments with unparalleled accuracy. By magnifying the area we’re working on, this microscope helps us to detect and treat even the smallest defects in tooth structure, including cracks, leaky fillings, and tartar buildup.

During check-ups and cleanings, this powerful tool enhances our ability to see and address potential issues, promoting proactive care and better outcomes. With it, we can perform detailed examinations, identifying and treating problems before they become serious. This level of precision aligns with our dedication to excellence, as it allows us to provide treatments that are tailored to each patient’s unique dental structure, supporting long-term oral health.

Creating crowns with our in-house milling machine

At Capital Dental, our in-house milling machine and furnace allows us to craft custom crowns on-site, saving patients the time and inconvenience of multiple appointments. By using this advanced technique we can create crowns that are shiny, realistic, smooth, and durable, tailored to match each patient’s unique dental anatomy. The milling process ensures that each crown is a perfect fit, designed for both functionality and aesthetics.

Our in-house milling machine demonstrates our commitment to trust and excellence, as it allows us to control the quality and fit of each crown. Patients can leave our office with a fully restored smile, knowing that their crown has been crafted with care and precision. This efficient approach to restorative dentistry enhances patient satisfaction, as it combines convenience with exceptional results.

Laser treatments for multiple purposes, including pain relief

At Capital Dental, we're proud to offer innovative laser therapy for jaw muscle pain relief using our high quality in-house laser. This cutting-edge treatment is particularly effective for patients with grinding or clenching issues related to bruxism. Our painless and quick laser therapy can reduce jaw muscle pain by up to half in just 5-10 minutes of treatment.

This system allows us to precisely target affected areas, providing efficient and comfortable care. This non-invasive approach aligns with our commitment to using advanced technology for improved patient outcomes. By integrating laser therapy into our practice, we offer a solution that not only addresses symptoms but also enhances overall oral health and quality of life.

Photobiomodulation therapy (PBM), also known as low-level laser therapy (LLLT), is a non-invasive treatment that may help with temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders.

Our dental scanner: a faster, more precise way to capture dental impressions

With the scanner, we’ve replaced the traditional, uncomfortable impression method with a quick, precise, and patient-friendly digital scan. Instead of using rubbery impression materials, the scan allows us to create highly accurate digital impressions that are sent directly to our lab in seconds. This not only saves time but also improves the quality of the final result.

This technique benefits both patients and our dental team. It provides a more comfortable experience, as there’s no need for bulky impression materials, and the entire process is completed quickly. We use Primescan for a variety of procedures, including splints, clear aligners, crowns, bridges, and implants. This technology enables us to deliver results that are precise and fit perfectly, ensuring each patient receives the best possible care.

Innovation allows us to build trust with our patients, as they know they are receiving the most advanced, reliable care available.

Dr Maria Andersson

I graduated in 1997 in Russia and was futher trained in Sweden in order to obtain a dental registration in Sweden in 2003. I worked in a private practise in Sweden and in 2006 I relocated to Australia and after passing all nessesary ADC examinations I achieved recognition in 2009 and was able to practice general dentistry in Australia. I had been attending various professional courses, and trying to keep the current knowledge about new trends and modern approaches. I am aware of the latest technology used in denstistry. I am proficient in all the different areas of general dentistry and highly motivated of achieving the best quality possible as well as working efficiently. The holistic approach is important to me, as the mouth is the only entrance of the body and can reflect several conditions and deficiencies, infections and autoimmune diseases and has to be treated accordingly to it. Often it is in the oral cavity and tissues surrounding it you can detect serious illness. But it is not only mouth, the human body is much more complex. I really like to be able to help people who suffer from dental phobia and are anxious to be at dental clinic. It is rewarding to be able to let them relax and afterwards get the most loyal patients. My gentle way and soft touch let the patients feel like they are able to intervene during their treatment. I love my work and enjoy seeing happy and grateful patients. I enjoy esthetic, conservative and pediatric dentistry and like to see my patients to return year after year to see me. The most resent treatment I offer are Inman Aligner and Clear Path aligners.
