Professional Periodontics and Dental Implants in Baytown
In addition to our doctors' advanced education and training, we also utilize the most state-of-the-art dental and facial imaging equipment available. This helps us ensure optimal success for every implant procedure.
Cone Beam CT Scans
Advanced radiography is key to the safety and success of complex dental surgery. Cone beam digital CT scanning allows us to take 3-Dimensional, low-radiation, high-resolution CT scans of your facial anatomy. We can then view these images from different angles, take precise measurements, and easily share 3-D data with other doctors.
Cone beam imaging is ideal for patient comfort, as it offers an "open-environment" design that reduces anxiety. Images can be taken in as little as 4.1 seconds, limiting discomfort and exposure to radiation.
Precision Implant Placement
Advanced radiography is integral to dental implant safety and success. A CT scan ensures that every possible precaution has been made to reduce the risk of involvement of the nerves in the lower jaw, and the sinuses and nose in the upper jaw.
This helps to reduce chair time and the possibility of complications. Until recently, CT scans were only done in hospitals or medical facilities.
