Dental CT

The Dental CT scan is a specially developed computerized reformatting program that has been developed to obtain true cross-sections of the mandible (jaw) and maxilla (upper mouth) from the easily obtained CT scans for patients being considered for dental implant surgery in either the mandibular or maxillary arches.

The primary use of Dental CT scans today is in the pre-operative planning and pre-operative modeling of endosseous dental implants and subperiosteal implants. When used appropriately, Dental CT scans relieve a lot of the pre-operative guesswork by the patient's dental surgeon in the planning of the position and lengths of the implants when surgery is deemed possible and also assists in withholding surgery when it is not feasible.

Dental CT enables the dental surgeon to visualize the bony structures pre-operatively; the surgeon does not have to make decisions at the time of surgery when the mucoperiosteal flap is already elevated to visualize the bony structures directly. Dental CT provides the surgeons with information of the internal structures that cannot even be gained by direct intra-operative visualization.
