Surgical Placement of Implants CT Scans Assisting Surgical Placement of Implants Most X-Rays taken before placement of implants are panoramic x-rays. Panoramic x-rays give the doctor a 2 dimensional picture of the patient's bone structure. This allows the doctor to see only the height of the bone in the mouth and may not give a completely accurate picture of the quantity and quality of bone due to distortion from magnification. CT Scans allow for a realistic 3 dimensional image of the patient in which the doctor can see contours of the bone and the actual anatomical structure without distortion. With this 3 dimensional image the doctor can use software that will allow for virtual placements of implants. By taking these precautions before surgery, patients will have a reduced rate of complications and shorter surgeries. The Dental Implant Aesthetic Center offers the best care available with cutting edge technology to give patients the best results possible.
