Our Difference
1. Complete In-House Equipment
Chi-U is equipped with the technology needed to handle diagnosis, treatment, and fabrication without outsourcing. A dental CT scanner provides detailed 3D imaging for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning, a dedicated TMJ therapy device supports care for jaw-joint disorders, and Q-Ray fluorescence technology aids early detection of tooth decay and plaque. An in-house 3D printer allows the clinic to fabricate restorations on site, enabling same-day laminate veneers and same-day crowns that normally require several visits.
2. Specialist-Led Prosthodontics, Start to Finish
Diagnosis, smile design, and the final restoration are all handled directly by a board-certified prosthodontist rather than divided between providers. This continuity keeps the treatment plan consistent and allows each restoration to be tailored to the patient's teeth, bite, and facial balance.
3. Natural Aesthetics with a Minimally Invasive Approach
For laminate veneers, Chi-U works with Oral Design, an internationally recognized aesthetic ceramic group, to create natural-looking, individualized restorations. Throughout treatment, the clinic follows a minimally invasive protocol that prioritizes preserving as much natural tooth structure as possible.
