The search for dental implants varies between medical need and cosmetic preference. In Dallas alone many individuals of varying ages seek the assistance of a dentist that offers precise work with the technology to make the procedure effective and successful, with as little hassle as possible. The technology of today, including Kodak 9500 cone beam imaging, allows for Dallas dental implants to be quicker and more precise than ever before.
Dental implants are a natural looking, proven way to rejuvenate smiles marred by missing teeth. Precise placement of dental implants is crucial to long-term success and optimal comfort and function. Modern technology plays a crucial role in implant dentistry treatment planning.
Dr. Lee Fitzgerald’s information for his Dallas dental implants procedures comes from cone beam digital imaging scans which help to precisely determine implant placement and create life-changing smiles.
Cone beam imaging delivers comprehensive views of oral structures for Dallas dental implants. An advanced computer system allows manipulation and magnification of images to hone in on a specific area and map out implant placement for optimal results. And because scanning times are short, you’re exposed to less radiation than with traditional X-ray technology.
The state-of-the-art cone beam imaging system provides unprecedented access to vital information. For example, sufficient jawbone mass is required for implant placement. The highly detailed images allow for accurate 
measuring of bone mass, in order to determine whether a bone graft or sinus graft is needed to shore up density. The Kodak 9500 cone beam scan also identifies structural problems that aren’t easily found during a manual or visual exam.
This top of the line CAT scan comes from the Kodak 9500 cone beam scanner. The 9500 is the premiere scanner in the world. It offers superior image quality while maintaining minimal radiation. It is a mid field and large field scanner combined. A three-dimensional cone beam scan along with SimPlant and Nobelguide planning software accurately plans a surgery and is said to be the most accurate way for a dentist to plan a surgery.
In Dallas, dental implants have helped people from across the Metroplex and beyond to achieve beautiful, healthy smiles through modern dental implants. Technology helps achieve the ultimate goal of delivering efficient, precision treatment for successful implant placement and a positive experience.
