Q & M Dental Group, Aesthetic Dentistry

The Q & M Dental Centre - Taking dentistry into the next dimension

Our flagship dental centre was opened in December 2009, at City Square Mall.
With a built-in area of approximately 12,000 sq ft, it has 32-treatment rooms.
Fully equipped with the latest in dental technology such as Galileos 3D Radiography, CEREC machine for one-day crown and dental laser.

Galileos 3D Radiography

Sirona's Galileos 3D imaging solution with new Cone Beam technology goes far beyond traditional diagnostics and treatment capabilities.
A large volumetric 3D image is created in a single 14 seconds 3D scan that provides highest resolution with the lowest radiation dose.
The imaging unit and its software work in complete harmony to provide a fully integrated workflow from diagnosis to treatment planning and surgical guides for implantology.

CEREC CAD/CAM

The CEREC CAD/CAM system uses computer-aided design and manufacture (CAD/CAM) technology.
This can be used to fabricate procelain and composite inlays, onlays, crowns and porcelain veneers within a single visit.

The advantage of choosing CEREC are:

Single Appointment Dental Care
Most dental restorative methods like crowns, veneers, inlays and onlays require more than one visit to the dentist. With CEREC, the procedure is done in a single appointment, from start to finish.
Finest Dental Materials
With CEREC, our dentist can use strong, tooth colored ceramic materials to restore teeth to their natural strength, beauty and function. These materials closely match the composition of natural tooth structure possible, providing a better restoration.

Smile Enhancement

Our dentist can use CEREC for more than just crowns and fillings. CEREC is capable of producing any single tooth restoration. Chipped or discolored front teeth can be repaired with beautiful CEREC porcelain anterior crowns or veneers.

In-house Ceramist

We have our very own in-house technician specializing in ceramics who will assist in the design and fabrication of the CEREC restoration to ensure that the best form and aesthetics are obtained.
The Dental Centre is also equipped with the SIRONA MCXL milling machine.
The combination of images from Galileos 3D radiography, the CEREC AC CAD/CAM system and the SIRONA MCXL milling machine is the first of its kind in the whole of South East Asia.

Dental Laser

Dental laser is most commonly used to perform soft-tissue surgery, including removing tumors and lesions from the soft tissues of the mouth.
Because the laser's high energy beam kills bacteria, it is often used to sterilize areas of the mouth before or during root canals, cavity treatment and other procedures.
Many dentists use the laser to perform laser tooth cleaning and plaque removal. The laser is powerful enough to remove even heavily calcified deposits, leaving the teeth clean. The laser can also be used to treat gum disease.

The advantages of using laser are:

Low pain treatment

The pulse duration of the laser is so short that the reaction threshold of the nerves is not reached. There is generally no need for anaesthetics. No vibrations. No shrill drilling noise.

Germ-destroying effect

The high energy beam kills germs. Owing to the high energy absorption in water of this laser wavelength, the moisture content of the germ cells is evaporated. The cell membrane bursts and the cell thus dies.

Faster wound healing

Operations with laser are contactless and necrosis-free. So the result is faster wound healing without postoperative symptoms.

Education

In Q & M we place a strong emphasis on education and continuous improvement.
We have an auditorium for lectures and training of dentist, clinic staff and members of the public.
We are equipped to provide a live feed to the auditorium from the surgical rooms. This enables us to do live demonstrations for training purposes.

Infection Control and Sterilization

Because we care for our patients, we ensure that we implement strict infection control protocols to protect our patients and give them a peace of mind.
We have a large central sterilization area and we make sure that all instruments and equipments are properly sterilized by a process called autoclaving.
We also use disposable or single use materials whenever possible.
