Digital Dental Scanning with CEREC Prime at Clowne Dental Practice
At Clowne Dental Practice, we’ve invested in the latest CEREC Prime digital scanner to enhance patient comfort and treatment precision.
Traditional impressions can be messy, uncomfortable, and difficult for patients with a strong gag reflex. Our digital scanner eliminates all of that. Instead of putty-like material, we use a small handheld wand to capture a detailed 3D image of your mouth, usually in under three minutes.
This scan can then be used for a variety of treatments:
- Crowns and bridges
- Orthodontic aligners
- Custom-made dental appliances
- Smile design and planning
The process is quick, clean, and accurate, giving you a much more comfortable experience and our clinicians greater precision when planning your care.
Digital scanning is ideal for nervous patients or anyone who has struggled with traditional dental impressions in the past. It’s just one of the many ways we make your dental visit more relaxing and efficient.

Is digital scanning painful?
No. It’s completely non-invasive and involves no discomfort.
How long does a scan take?
We can usually scan your whole mouth in just a few minutes.
Can children have digital scans?
Yes. The scanner is safe and suitable for patients of all ages.
Do you still offer traditional impressions if needed?
Yes, but digital scanning is our first choice whenever possible.
What treatments use the digital scanner?
Crowns, bridges, aligners, retainers, whitening trays, and more.
