How We Plan Treatment With CT Scanning Technology

When you have missing teeth and want to replace them with dental implants, or if you require more advanced treatment for complex oral health issues, we can help with advanced technology. With CT scanning technology, our team can plan the procedure in detail. Our oral surgery and dental implant clinics in Berks County, PA, are ready to offer precise placement with CT scanning technology.

The CT Scanner Technology

With CT scanning, we can obtain clear, high-definition images of your smile. These 3D images enable us to plan treatment in detail, and ensure we avoid contact with blood vessels, nerve tissues, and sinus cavities during the treatment process. The technology also uses a fraction of the radiation that traditional imaging systems employ.

Planning Dental Implant Placement

Dental implants are inserted into the jaw and act as new roots. With CT scanning, we can choose the best angle, position, and depth to insert these posts, which can often reduce surgical times and postoperative discomfort. The areas tend to heal faster too! Our team can also use the technology to assess the strength of your jawbone and find out if you need procedures like jawbone grafting or a sinus lift before we move forward with your dental implant placement. With successful placement of your new roots, this means a greater likelihood of success, and that your new teeth could stay in place for decades to come, possibly a lifetime!

Securing Your New Teeth

In some cases, our team can use the technology to plan placement and allow us to secure your new roots in one visit. In fact, in some cases we can attach the restoration or prosthetic in the same visit too, so you leave with a full smile. This is because digital scanning technology allows us to plan the procedure in detail before your arrival for placement, limiting time and helping you leave with a full smile. Along with replacing missing teeth, we can also use the digital technology to plan jaw surgery, restorative treatments, and complex pathology cases.
