CEREC allows us to create same-day restorations at Holmes Dental Care. With no need for messy impressions, long waiting times, or multiple appointments, we can elevate your experience and results. By combining state-of-the-art software with a cutting-edge in-house milling machine, we can plan, fabricate and fit your restoration in just a single dental visit!
If you need a crown, onlay or veneer, we can use CEREC 3D software to design it. The information is then sent to the milling machine, which accurately creates your restoration from porcelain. While this is happening, we can prepare your tooth by gently filing it, under local anaesthetic if necessary, into the best shape to accommodate the restoration. Your crown, veneer or onlay can then be attached, and you can leave the practice with your same-day restoration securely in place.
We use our CBCT scanner to produce highly accurate 3D images that allow us to carefully plan your treatment procedure and deliver incredible results. It removes the need for messy impressions and is completely pain-free, elevating your experience. The detailed images from a CBCT scan enables us to give you a better understanding of your treatment and greatly minimises the risk of any errors.
We also use two different intra-oral scanners. The iTero scanner improves patient experience as it delivers impression-free dentistry and high-quality digital scans for enhanced treatment planning. The Primescan intra-oral scanner captures highly accurate digital impressions with incredible speed & precision, improving patient comfort and reducing time in the dental chair. Both scanners have streamlined our dental practice, minimising errors, and delivering predictable, high-quality results for our patients while enhancing their overall dental experience.
We use a state-of-the-art dental microscope to carry out highly accurate root canal treatment gently and effectively. It allows us to see inside your tooth in much greater definition and clarity. We are able to view and treat even the tiniest details for exceptional treatment with the highest chance of success.
The Waterlase dental laser enables us to provide safe and comfortable treatment without the need for needles or drills. It uses a laser and water spray for minimally invasive dentistry with little to no bleeding, minimal pain and rapid healing. Waterlase is an excellent option for nervous dental patients, using cutting-edge dentistry for a more relaxed experience.
L-PRF is a chairside procedure that is proven to promote faster healing, so it’s ideal for oral surgery procedures, including extractions and digital dental implants. By collecting a blood sample, just as you would experience in a routine blood test, we can use our in-house L-PRF machine to separate and concentrate the most important cells and active proteins in your blood. The result, called Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF), can be applied to the wound to speed up healing and promote bone integration.

A dental scanner is a device used to create a digital 3D model of a patient’s teeth and mouth. It uses advanced technology, such as lasers or structured light, to capture precise measurements and details.
Dental scanners are used to capture fast, detailed and highly accurate images of your mouth. They can elevate the planning of various dental treatments, such as orthodontics, dental implants, crowns and veneers.
Digital dentistry offers several advantages compared to traditional methods. These include greater accuracy and efficiency, with treatment time reduced. Digital scans are also pain-free and much more comfortable than traditional messy impressions. Digital dentistry also allows for more precise planning and gives an aesthetically pleasing result tailored to you.
