KRUGER DENTAL SURGERY
TECHNOLOGIES
A modern dental
practice should also be well equipped with
the latest
proven technology utilised to create a clean, safe,
comfortable
environment for patients. You can be assured that
every dental
procedure is performed with the latest in proven
technology from
the hardware equipment we use, to the
techniques we
choose in your treatment as well as the
treatment
materials.
We are an
amalgam free practice. We only do white fillings.
TOP OF THE RANGE STERILIZING EQUIPMENT
We are overstaffed!
Cleanliness is of paramount importance. We use the latest
sterilizing equipment and techniques. It takes one staff member
approximately 15 minutes for a surgery to be stripped of
contaminated equipment and plastic covers, disinfected and
redressed with new plastic covers after every patient. This is
usually started while the dentist is having a discussion with the
patient at the end of their treatment.
To minimize your wait, the dentist sometimes will use a different
surgery to the one you’ve previously visited, depending on which
room is disinfected and ready to be used. Alternatively, 2 staff
members will work together to cut this cleaning time by half. We
are overstaffed for this very reason!
Our doors, pens, eftpos pads and front desk are just a few of the
items disinfected regularly on a daily basis.
NERVOUS? WE HAVE PENTHROX! THE LATEST SOLUTION FOR ANXIETY RELIEF
This is an inhaler with a substance similar to happy gas yet much
more effective at a small additional cost but well worth it. You
will
need to inform the staff when you call for your appointment in order
to allow extra time, and will also need to arrive a little early to
sign
the consent form. You must not leave the surgery unaccompanied.
You
will be unable to drive or sign official documents for
12 hours
after receiving Penthrox.

ZOOM WHITENING MACHINE
“WOW!” is the usual response. In one visit your teeth are up to
9 shades whiter.

EDUCATIONAL DVD
This is a series of short 2-4 minute dental procedure educational
videos. They cover all the dental treatments available which can be
viewed at your request. There are over 30 topics, with multiple
sub-topics. So if you need to know about root canal treatment, you
can choose to watch videos on how we diagnose them, what
causes teeth to require root canal treatment, other options
involved,
the
root canal procedure, and several other sub-topics.
DIGITAL X-RAY
This means your x-ray image is on the computer screen within
3 seconds of exposure to the x-ray sensor. In addition to that,
the amount of radiation your mouth is exposed to is approximately
1/10th of the radiation of the normal exposure with the
manual films
and you don’t have to wait for them to be developed! This makes
the x-ray extremely safe.
The resolution on old x-ray films is usually extremely poor in
comparison to Digital x-ray resolution.
The images on old x-ray hard copy films fade with time, whereas
digital x-ray obviously doesn’t.
Digital x-ray also offers other multiple diagnostic tools available
to
the dentist, such as varying contrast etc…
INTRA-ORAL CAMERA
This can help us show you what we are talking about or trying to
explain. It helps you see what we can see. We can also do before
and after shots of what we have done at your request.
FULLY COMPUTERISED DENTAL RECORDS
Manual records are a thing of the past. We can now have your
records on the screen within seconds. No need to look up your
files and x-rays. This also means that your 6 monthly checkup
and clean reminders are not forgotten.
You can view your intra-oral images and x-rays on the chair monitor
situated close to you while you are in the dental chair.
