Benefits of Choosing a Dentist with a Cone Beam Scanner

If you’re ready to treat your tooth loss with dental implants, you’re making an excellent investment. They provide reliable results that can last for decades. Don’t settle for anything less than the best when choosing a dentist. Besides considering their qualifications and experience, look for a dentist who embraces the latest technologies to promote the success of your new smile, like a cone beam scanner. Here are just a few benefits of choosing an implant dentist with a cone beam scanner.

Detect Issues Below the Surface

Most people with good oral and general health are candidates for dental implants, but your dentist must have a complete picture of your mouth to ensure they are right for you. Not all issues are visible from the surface, like infections or bone loss. You must have sufficient bone density to support dental implants. Your mouth must also be free of infections. Your dentist will be able to see every detail of your oral structures, which aren’t visible using other imaging methods, like X-rays.

Comprehensive Treatment Planning

Based on the results of your scan, your dentist will create a personalized treatment plan. They’ll determine if you need any preparatory procedures, like gum disease treatment, bone grafting, or sinus augmentation. They’ll ensure your dental implants have a healthy foundation to last for years.

Pinpoint Accuracy

Using the details gathered from the scan, your dentist can insert your posts with the utmost precision. The scan will show nerve pathways and other tissues to determine the exact placement for your posts to prevent any complications. The information integrates with computer-guided technology to place your posts with pinpoint accuracy, so there’s less room for error.

Higher Success Rate

A cone beam scanner takes a lot of the guesswork out of the process to promote the best results. Dental implants are proven to last for 30 years or longer with the right aftercare. You’ll benefit from over a 95% success rate using the latest technologies and techniques. 

A cone beam scan involves a quick and pain-free method of getting highly detailed images of your oral structures. You’ll eliminate many risks by choosing the latest dental technologies.
