What Is the 3D CBCT Scanner?
Dentist Covington
Fully guided implant placement is the most efficient and precise way to place a dental implant, meaning your procedure is fast and expertly performed. Using 3D imaging of the jaws, this technology gives our team the most precise and complete information available today.
The process involves two CBCT scans, one taken of the patient with an impression tray in the mouth, and then of the impression tray itself. These two images are digitally overlayed to create a model of the implant position. That model is then placed in the mouth to guide the implant placement, ensuring proper implant stability, and maintaining the strength of bone structure. Not only does this technique increase durability, but it also allows patients to feel completely confident in their dental implants.
