On Site 3D Imaging
Cone beam computed tomography, or CBCT, is essential when diagnosing difficult cases.
It is often able to detect pathology which cannot be seen on conventional 2D radiographs.

Rae Kivell
Receptionist
Rae is from Christchurch and gained an MA (Hons) in Psychology from the University of Canterbury. Her early employment was in the English language industry, however, an introduction to the field of Endodontics in 2010 fostered a love for helping others and seeing them pain free, thus easily becoming her preferred vocation. A Certificate in Dental Assisting followed, along with reception duties.
