Using 3D Cone Beam in Dental Implantology
Since its recommendation by the American Academy of Oral and Maxillofacial Academy in 2012, 3D cone beam technology has become the standard of care for most dental professionals to obtain a complete picture when planning and placing dental implants. Cone beam computed tomography, or CBCT, provides you with a precise, relational view of the patient’s anatomy when planning implant procedures. 3D cone beam images, along with their associated 3D imaging software, allow practitioners to plan the treatment from implant through final restoration for the best and most predictable patient outcomes.
