When you need oral surgery to improve the overall health and beauty of your smile, we want to ensure you receive care with precision and comfort. Which means we plan it in detail using digital x-rays and intraoral cameras! In today’s blog, your Santa Rosa, CA, oral surgeons look at our digital x-rays and CBCT imaging systems.
When to See Our Doctors
When should you contact our office for oral surgery? When you have issues like wisdom teeth soon to erupt, missing teeth, imbalance or injured jaw structure, facial trauma, or other more complex oral health concerns, you should see our team. We not only focus on improving the health and function of your bite, but we take smile beauty into account too. Our doctors have experience helping patients of all ages, from pediatrics to seniors, and even work with the Santa Rosa Memorial Hospital Trauma Team. To ensure treatment with precision and accuracy, we plan and guide the process with digital imaging systems.
Digital X-Rays
Digital x-rays allow our team to obtain clear and high-definition images of your smile from multiple angles. These will be panoramic too, so we can see your smile as a whole. You simply place your chin on a special rest, and a machine will encircle your head to gather these incredibly detailed images. No need for uncomfortable bite wings, and the system uses 90% less radiation too. This can help identify the position of teeth that we need to extract, and will allow us to assess the best places to insert dental implants. The images are then stored digitally, so if needed we can easily transmit them to your general dentist or orthodontist.
CBCT Imagery
With Cone Beam Computed Tomography, also known as CBCT imaging, we can obtain clear and very detailed pictures of your face, jaw, and teeth. These use less radiation and can help us plan treatments, such as dental implant placement, by assessing the strength of your jaw, we can also place new teeth and extract them, and conduct treatment for injuries and trauma, while avoiding contact with blood vessels, nerve tissues, and sinus cavities. If you have any questions about how we help plan and implement your oral surgery with advanced digital imagery, or if you want to schedule a visit, then contact our team today to learn more. You can also put your remaining 2024 dental benefits to use before they expire!
