Carillon Dental Care on Baxter Gate in Loughborough is the first dental practice in the UK to pilot an innovative new 3D pain distraction technology.

The portable 3D V-pod distraction system has been developed over a number of years by Middlesbrough-based company Amazing Interactives. The system was originally designed to provide a visual distraction for children undergoing surgery in hospital and having received positive feedback from children and medics, is now in regular use at more than 20 of the UK's leading children's hospitals.

A new dedicated system has now been developed aimed at helping children or nervous patients to relax during dental procedures. Using the same distraction techniques, patients can enjoy a selection of entertaining programmes in 3D projection on a portable screen from the treatment chair.

The portable 3D technology features everything from exciting rollercoaster rides and cartoons to capture the attention of children, to relaxing underwater scenes and woodland views to soothe nervous patients.
