We offer a number of treatments, from extraction and implant placement to sinus lifts and even treatment for facial trauma. To oversee these procedures and provide care with accuracy and precision, your Santa Rosa , CA, oral and maxillofacial surgeons employ digital imaging technology. In today’s blog, we look at how we use the CBCT digital imaging system!
When to See Us
Your general dentist or orthodontist may refer you to us for issues that require oral surgery. For example, if you need a tooth extracted to make room for orthodontic treatment, or to prevent the impaction of wisdom teeth, we could help. Our team is also experienced in treating facial trauma, placing dental implants to address missing teeth, or perform surgeries to rebuild the jawbone to make it ready for implant placement. We also have jaw surgeries to restore balance, and can address common oral pathologies too.
The CBCT System
We use Cone Beam Computed Tomography to create detailed digital images of your jaw, teeth, and face. The images will be high-definition and available instantly. They don’t need to be developed in harsh chemicals for long amounts of time. They also use a fraction of the radiation that traditional x-rays require! The images let us see not only your teeth and gums, but your roots, sinus cavities, nerve tissues, and jaw bone and oral structures. As a result, we can make a diagnosis with greater precision and accuracy, and also plan and guide your treatment too.
Common Treatment Options
We’ve discussed how we can gently and carefully extract teeth, and also address missing ones with implant dentistry. But we also have ridge augmentations and sinus lifts to rebuild and strengthen your jawbone, preparing your smile for implant placement. We could also bracket your impacted teeth, and even secure a full set of dentures with multiple dental implants. If you have issues with the health, function, and beauty of your smile that require oral surgery, know that we’ll use the latest in digital imaging technology to plan and oversee this procedure with precision and accuracy, helping you enjoy your best possible smile once again.
