Advantages for dental clinics

Dental scanning technology offers innumerable advantages in the work of dentists and maxillofacial surgeons:

▪ This innovative technology allows 3D images to be obtained.

▪ Three-dimensional scans in 360 degrees lets specialists view the oral and maxillofacial characteristics of the patient.

▪ A standard jaw scan simplifies the planning of implants, root canals and surgical interventions.

▪ Extended diameter scans (EDS) facilitate the evaluation of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and the study of the respiratory tract.

▪ Three-dimensional projections of the condyles heads allow surgeons to assess the impact of treatment on the joints before surgery.

▪ This remarkable and invaluable dental tool helps to reduce the risk of undetected canals and to accurately determine the type, size and location of the implant before surgery.

▪ Precise measurements of the anatomical regions are critical for planning surgery and implants.

▪ Cross-cuts are used for assessing the roots for root canal procedures.

▪ Undistorted cross-cuts of the upper and lower jaws are used to assess bone quantity and volume.

▪ They lead to reliability and precision in patient diagnosis.

▪ Extended diameter scans help to identify polyps, disorders of the sinuses, and other conditions.

▪ There is reduced radiation relative to traditional CTs.

▪ It enhances patient confidence in therapeutic programs through a clear diagnostic that is accompanied by images.
