Cone Beam 3-D Dental Imaging
Also known as Computerized Tomography or CT Scan. The current emerging standard of care in dental implantology is the use of three dimensional x-ray studies. The 3-D images allow the doctor to collect the needed and highly valuable diagnostic information so they can best plan and deliver dental and surgical care.
Cone Beam 3D Imaging offers enhanced diagnosis and treatment planning by providing more accurate imaging. Cone Beam imaging delivers quicker and easier image acquisition a typical scan takes only 20 seconds. The patient benefits from less radiation as well as the comfortable, open environment. Aside from the physical comfort of this system, the doctor can share a visual diagnosis with patients, making them more comfortable with their treatment plan and actively participate in their care. The diagnostic images from a 3D scanner can be easily converted into a third party software (i.e. Simplant) for pre-surgical evaluation and computer guided surgery. The doctor will receive a viewable animation to help him measure and analyze your case from every aspect. The data can also be used to fabricate your surgical guides.
Benefits:
• Allows doctors to visualize anatomy that can not be diagnosed externally or in 2 dimensional images.
• Open environment ensures patient comfort.
• Thorough diagnostic information (optimum view of the critical anatomy of all oral and maxillofacial structures.)
• More accurate treatment planning - confirm certain treatments are necessary.
• More predictable treatment outcomes.
• Reduces the length and cost of therapy
• Delivers quicker and easier image acquisition - typical scan takes only 20 seconds.
