Digital dentistry represents the cutting edge of modern dental care, replacing traditional, messy dental methods with advanced electronic, optical, and computer-based technologies. At The Dental Gallery in Ealing, digital dentistry is integrated across almost every treatment discipline—from routine check-ups and orthodontics to complex dental implant placements and full smile makeovers. By incorporating state-of-the-art digital workflows, the clinic delivers faster, more precise, and remarkably comfortable care for every patient.
The clinic’s advanced digital setup includes high-resolution intraoral 3D scanners, digital X-rays, 3D CBCT bone scanners, and Computer-Aided Design and Manufacturing (CAD/CAM) technology. Instead of taking unpleasant physical putty impressions, intraoral scanners capture thousands of 3D images of your teeth in seconds to create a precise digital model. This digital model allows the clinical team to plan treatments with extreme accuracy, simulate projected smile outcomes before starting, and fabricate custom crowns, veneers, and aligners with an exact, seamless fit.
Replaces uncomfortable, gag-inducing putty impressions with quick, highly accurate 3D digital scans.
3D CBCT scans and CAD/CAM design provide millimetre-precise planning for dental implants and complex restorations.
Streamlined digital workflows between the dentist and dental laboratory significantly reduce waiting times for custom restorations.
Digital Smile Design technology allows you to see a 3D preview of your projected smile before treatment even begins.
Digital dentistry uses advanced computer technology—such as 3D scanners, digital X-rays, and CAD/CAM software—to make dental procedures more precise, faster, less invasive, and significantly more comfortable than traditional methods.
In most cases, no. The Dental Gallery uses state-of-the-art intraoral 3D scanners to take swift, accurate digital impressions, eliminating the mess, taste, and gag reflex associated with traditional putty impression trays.
Yes, extremely safe. Digital X-rays and 3D CBCT scanners emit up to 80–90% less radiation compared to traditional film-based dental X-rays, while providing crystal-clear images for diagnosis.
For dental implants, 3D CBCT scans allow guided placement with optimal bone density alignment. For orthodontic treatments like Invisalign, digital scanning allows the creation of precise clear aligners and enables you to view a 3D animation of how your teeth will move over time.
