CBCT

Using CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) in dental implant procedures significantly enhances the accuracy and success of the treatment. CBCT provides detailed 3D images of your teeth, jawbone, and surrounding structures, allowing for precise planning and placement of dental implants. The precise data from CBCT scans enable the creation of personalized treatment plans tailored to each patient’s unique anatomy and needs.

Bone Grafting

Bone grafting is a procedure used to enhance the jawbone's density and volume, making it strong enough to support dental implants. When a tooth is lost, the underlying bone can deteriorate over time, which may not provide adequate support for an implant. Bone grafting addresses this issue by adding new bone material to the area, promoting bone growth and regeneration.

Dental implants act as artificial tooth roots, providing the necessary stimulation to the jawbone. This helps maintain bone density and prevents further bone loss, preserving the structure and strength of your jaw.

With proper care and maintenance, dental implants can last a lifetime. Regular dental check-ups and good oral hygiene are essential to the longevity of the implants.

Caring for dental implants is similar to caring for natural teeth. Brush and floss daily, and visit your dentist regularly for check-ups and cleanings. Avoid habits that can damage teeth, such as smoking and chewing hard objects.
