As well as the advanced equipment listed below, all our surgeries are also equipped with state-of-the-art dental chairs to ensure you are comfortable during your visit.

iTero™ Element Scanner

Dental Microscope

Our specialist endodontist now use the dental microscope to perform root canal treatments. The operating microscope greatly enhances a clinician's ability to view the tiniest details inside a patient's tooth.

Intraoral Camera

All our surgeries are equipped with intraoral cameras, which your clinician will use during your dental check-up. With an intraoral camera, your dentist can now show live, enlarged images of dental areas to you.

It will help you clearly understand the problem and the reason behind the advised treatment. The camera aids in reducing anxiety and establishes a trustworthy relationship between the patient and the dentist. You will be able to make informed decisions on treatments advised; for example: the colour of the filling, crowns etc.

Digital SLR

Our dentists are trained in extra-oral (outside the mouth) photography to accurately customise your smile, specially during smile makeovers.

The dentist can then transfer your photos to a software and digitally design your smile based on your expections. This is then presented to you, and also sent to the lab to effectively communicate the final result. Think of this as a 'test drive' for your desired smile.

CBCT Scanner

A CBCT scanner (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) is a state-of-the-art scanning machine that is used to produce precise, high resolution 3D images of a patient’s mouth including the teeth, jaws, soft tissue and bones – all with high levels of detail.

Using the lowest possible radiation dose amongst products available internationally, the CBCT dental scanner is used as an advanced diagnostic tool to take a 3D CT scan of the patient’s mouth. The resulting images are comparable to medical CT scans.

I consider myself extremely lucky to have such a professional dental practice in my hometown. When I was contemplating Invisalign to correct the alignment of my teeth, Chess House were my immediate ‘go to’. They explained the process in a clear and understandable manner, with support and advice available at every stage. The results speak for themselves - I’m now able to smile in pictures! I am so pleased that Chess House guided me through this procedure. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my teeth and oral health!

Dr Shah has done an amazing job with my teeth, I started Invisalign® a year ago and at the final stages now. My teeth and smile have completely transformed and I’ve got my confidence back. The whitening treatment and composite bonding has been worth it. Highly recommend Chess House!

I had some cosmetic dental work done recently at Chess House Dental Practice and it was great from start to finish. Yash and his colleagues were brilliant. I felt they really took great care in what they did and also offered me plenty of options along the way, mindful of costs. Thanks so much to all at the practice - I'm very happy with the outcome.
