“If you can’t see it, you can’t treat it. It’s as simple as that.”
Dr. John Good, a specialist prosthodontist and partner at the prestigious No.8 Partnership in Chelsea, London, embodies the transformative power of modern dentistry.
With over three decades of experience, including a master’s degree in Fixed Prosthodontics from the Eastman Dental Institute, Dr. Good has embraced cutting-edge technology to deliver exceptional patient care.
A Clearer Diagnosis with Vatech
Dr. Good recalls a recent case where advanced imaging proved invaluable:
“We scanned a patient yesterday and discovered that their lower central and lateral incisors were fused. Thanks to the scan’s clarity, we identified the issue early. Without this insight, the patient might have started orthodontics, leaving everyone puzzled as to why their teeth weren’t moving.”
With Vatech’s CBCT technology, his practice can diagnose and plan treatments with unmatched precision, saving patients unnecessary procedures and ensuring optimal outcomes.
A Journey into Digital Dentistry
Dr. Good’s practice began its digital transformation over a decade ago with early intraoral scanners and progressed to in-house cone beam CT systems around eight years ago. He notes:
“The image quality, especially on the 4×4 endodontic mode, is incredible. The number of issues we identify during scans is astounding. The technology is now integral to all six surgeries in our practice.”
Why Vatech Stands Out
Dr. Good praises the ease of use and reliability of Vatech’s software:
“It’s probably the easiest to learn among the various CBCT systems we use. All our nurses and partners work with it seamlessly.”
He also highlights the company’s excellent customer service:
“From installation to integration with our practice management system, everything was straightforward. Unlike other technologies, Vatech made the process effortless.”
His partners echo this sentiment, describing Vatech as “friendly”—a testament to the company’s approachable and supportive ethos.
The Verdict
For Dr. Good, Vatech represents a harmonious blend of cutting-edge technology and personalised service. He concludes:
“It’s not just about the technology—it’s about how easy and pleasant they make the entire process. That’s why they’re one of my favourite companies to work with.”
