Modern dentistry has evolved more in the past decade than in the previous fifty.
At ArtSmiles, these advances mean more comfort, more precision and results that look and feel natural.
Below are the six innovations that transformed the dental experience.
Traditional impressions often caused gagging and anxiety. Digital scanners replaced all of that.
What patients experience now
• No trays
• No paste
• No gag reflex
• Fast, clean and comfortable scanning
• Instant 3D preview on-screen
Why it matters
Digital impressions improve accuracy, communication and speed, making appointments lighter and more predictable.
Restorations that used to take weeks can now be completed in a single appointment.
Using digital design and in-house milling systems, many crowns, veneers and onlays can be completed in a single visit. This offers a more comfortable experience with fewer injections, no temporary restorations and higher precision.
Benefits
• Fewer visits
• No temporary restorations
• Fewer injections
• More precise fit
• Strong ceramic materials designed digitally
Patients often leave with a new crown or onlay on the same day, with comfort and convenience that didn’t exist years ago.
3D-printed guides help position implants with exceptional accuracy.
What this technology allows
• Safer implant placement
• Reduced risk around nerves and sinuses
• Shorter surgery times
• Faster recovery
• More predictable outcomes
For patients, this means confidence, clarity and smoother healing.
Fear of injections or pain is one of the biggest barriers to dental care.
Today, anaesthesia is gentler and more predictable.
Improvements patients feel
• Softer delivery systems
• Faster numbing
• Less pressure and discomfort
• More consistent effect
Combined with minimally invasive techniques such as microdrills, lasers and air abrasion, treatments become significantly more comfortable and healing is quicker.
Modern ceramics have transformed what is possible in aesthetics and durability.
Advantages
• Natural translucency similar to enamel
• Strong resistance to fractures
• Thinner restorations that preserve tooth structure
• Excellent long-term performance
This is how we create smiles that are elegant, harmonious and built to last.
Three pillars of modern dentistry now go hand in hand: safety, predictability and comfort.
Digital planning brings
• Smile simulations
• Precise implant planning
• Better bite analysis
• Fewer surprises during treatment
Enhanced safety protocols include
• Class B autoclaves
• Waterline purification
• HEPA and UV air filtration
Sedation options help patients who feel anxious
• Nitrous oxide
• Oral sedation
• IV sedation (when appropriate)
Together, these innovations create an experience that is more human, calm and predictable than ever before.
Modern dentistry is far gentler and more predictable than what most people remember.
With digital planning, advanced materials and softer techniques, treatments today are faster and more comfortable.
At ArtSmiles, we use these innovations to create natural results while keeping the experience calm and human.
If you have avoided treatment before, it may be comforting to know that dentistry has changed, and your smile journey can be smooth and reassuring.
