Our High Technology

Introducing Our High Technology Practice

We are committed to being the most technologically advanced practice in our region. We love finding innovative solutions to improve treatment outcomes for our patients. Our investment in leading-edge digital technology allows us to be the front-runner in bringing the most advanced dental solutions and the highest levels of patient care to the dental market. Not only have we teamed up with the top high-quality professional industry partners and invested in the latest technologies we have also invested in attracting talented and trained individuals to ensure these techniques are utilised to their full potential to benefit you.

The World Dentistry Federation early this year wrote: “The future of dentistry is digital.” The digitisation of dental procedures has brought new parameters to aesthetic dentistry. It will continue to evolve until it is indispensable in everyday practice.” We believe in leading the way in digital dentistry to continue delivering the best for our Patients.

Testimonial

What Our Surgeons Say

“As an extremely nervous patient I was very worried about the treatment I needed, but Brenda and her team did everything possible to make the process as quick, stress free and painless and possible. The end result is fantastic. I would recommend Dr. Barrett to anyone especially nervous patients.”

“Less than a year ago I was concerned about smiling too broadly, for fear my broken and missing teeth might show. In addition, I avoided going to a dentist out of both general fear and embarrassment over my neglect of my teeth. Needless to say, smiling is no longer a problem, as you did a great job repairing my teeth, relatively painlessly I must add. However, more importantly, you and your staff always made me feel comfortable, never chastising me for the past. You have a patient for life.”

“The atmosphere within the surgery is very relaxing and comfortable, the facilities and equipment are top class as are the hygiene standards.”

“I must comment on how impressed I was with your staff and the professionalism in which they represent your surgery. As a leader of a business myself, I understand what it takes to ensure quality service. Your entire surgery presents itself as a team working together to ultimately serve the patient with sincerity, integrity and genuine concern. It truly was a pleasure to meet your team and receive the service.”

X-Guide

Computer-Guided Dental Implant Surgery

The “Nobel BioCare” X-Guide System offers our patients the latest cutting-edge technology for placing dental implants. We are delighted to be market leaders with only a small number of practices in Ireland currently having this technology. This new software allows surgeries to plan and execute using computer-guided dental implant surgery bringing implant treatment to a much higher level of precision and accuracy. It improves efficiency by reducing workflow steps and helps the specialist decide where to ideally place the implant before surgery. It even allows us to perform emergency or same-day diagnostic and treatment sessions for patients. We have invested in this technology for many reasons. We can:

  •  Perform free-hand surgery with real-time 3D guidance improving accuracy.
  •  Control implant position real-time with dynamic 3D navigation improving safety.
  •  Always see our plan and keep control with an option to immediately adapt the plan during surgery if necessary to obtain optimal results.

Cerec 3D Design And Milling

Densply Sirona Digital Lab

Another exciting addition to our practice is the opening of our Dentsply Sirona Digital Lab in September 2018. We can now design and produce outstanding inlays, Onlays, crowns, and screw-retained implant crowns and veneers in a fraction of the time previously required. Cerec software guarantees individual precision from the very beginning ensuring a highly aesthetic, individual restoration for our patient. The Cerec machine allows us to offer the highest quality aesthetics and strength using the latest composites, glass ceramics, and zirconia restorations.

Not only does the system design the best individual patient solution but it also produces the best clinical outcome for our patients. The Cerec milling unit and software are optimally synchronised with one another ensuring extreme precision, giving restorations smooth surfaces, even very fine fissures are very precisely prepared. It also allows us to manufacture restorations in just one single day!

Kavo

3D CBCT X-Ray Cone Beam CT Scanner

Another one of our significant investments has been the introduction of the KAVO 3D CBCT Scanner Machine – the first in Ireland. This leading-edge technology allows us to improve our diagnosis and treatment planning. Using the latest technology, this machine helps improve workflow efficiency, and with its unsurpassed imaging quality, it is difficult to imagine life before this machine.

We simply love the KAVO, not just how it assists with treatment precision and safety by giving us three-dimensional images of the mouth but the fact we can now tell our Patients that this machine uses the latest innovation in low dose radiation technology. The KAVO machine is used across many disciplines in our Practice including Orthodontics, Implantology, and Endodontics, Periodontics and Oral Surgery. The perfect partner for patients with more complex dental needs working across a multidisciplinary team.
