Dental implants, first used in the 1980s, are a brilliant solution for patients who want to replace missing teeth. Dental implant restoration is a permanent, lifelong solution, unlike dentures and bridgework. To replace a tooth with dental implant restoration, we will place a titanium screw-like implant into your jawbone where the tooth once was. When done, the implants becomes fused to the bone and is now part of your jaw and the healing process takes place naturally. Once the healing process is complete, we can place a custom-made replacement crown or artificial tooth on top of the implant so it looks like your old natural tooth again. There are several ways of placing dental implants depending on the location and jaw type of the patient. In this article, you will learn about 3D CT scans for dental implant<\/a> placement using new technology which helps in easy placement even in challenging situations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is a 3D CT scan<\/a>?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A CT or computed tomography scan is an x-ray machine that takes high-resolution 3D pictures of your teeth to create a virtual model of your mouth. You will lie on a table inside a big machine that rotates around you while a computer takes images through your teeth from different directions. After the scan, your dentist will receive a computer report with cross-sectional images of your mouth. The 3D CT scan is especially useful for treating people who have dental problems that make it difficult to get a traditional 2D dental x-ray.<\/p>\n\n\n

Whether you have a missing tooth, a misaligned bite, or a jaw disorder, like impacted wisdom teeth, a CT scan can show your dentist the exact location of your problem. The key advantage of the CT scan is that it can see through the patient’s soft tissue inside the mouth. This visual representation can be helpful in determining the condition of the teeth, gums, and jawbones. Because the images are generated in 3D, the dentist can see interior details in the images that would be difficult to determine with a regular 2D x-ray.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3D Ct <\/a>Scans provide both three-dimensional and cross-section views that show much more than traditional two-dimensional x-rays. These 3D images provide detailed views that enable Dr. Chirag Chamria to determine the quality and quantity of bone as well as bone density where the implants will be placed. Vital structures such as sinuses and nerves are precisely located to add a great measure of safety not offered with traditional x-rays.<\/p>\n\n\n

With this information, Dr. Chirag can determine the proper treatment approach for each individual patient, including the correct implant size and position for optimal implant placement. 3D imaging is becoming the standard of care for Implant Dentistry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
