Cone beam CT scanners provide detailed, high-resolution images of the bones and soft tissues of the mouth. We use these images to ensure precision and safety during bone grafting and the installation of dental implants. The American Academy of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology (AAOMR) recommends using CBCT for imaging the maxillofacial area before any bone grafts or dental implant placements.nnComputer-guided implant surgery based on 3D imaging raises the bar for precision placement by eliminating guesswork and creating a guide for the exact placement of each implant. We also use these scans after implant placement to carefully monitor the progress of implant integration following surgery.nnPeriodontal care leaps forward with dental 3D imaging as well. Because our cone beam CT scanner captures images of both hard and soft tissues, we can diagnose periodontal disease, cavities, and problems in the jaw and nerve canals in their earliest stages. Other applications include the diagnosis of fractures and endodontic issues.nn3D dental imaging also gives our patients a window into their oral health and a better understanding of any treatments needed. Cone beam CT scans provide our patients with clear images of their own mouth structure so they can better visualize and understand their treatment plan.
