In the realm of dental health, precision plays a pivotal role. The quality of dental scans can significantly impact the accuracy of diagnoses and treatment plans. At Alban City Dental & Surgical Centre, we understand the importance of top-notch scans, which is why we offer advanced imaging services. In this article, we’ll explore why high-quality dental scans matter and how our state-of-the-art technology benefits both patients and dental professionals.
Cutting-edge technology at Alban City Dental & Surgical Centre
Alban City Dental & Surgical Centre is proud to be at the forefront of advanced dental care. We’re delighted to offer the state-of-the-art Carestream 9600 Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) scanner, which enables 3D facial scanning, intra-oral scanning and lateral cephalometry. This technology has revolutionised dental diagnostics, delivering unparalleled precision and clarity.
Let’s delve into why the quality of dental scans is crucial, and how our cutting-edge technology benefits our patients and dental colleagues alike.
Accurate diagnosis
Imagine trying to solve a jigsaw puzzle with missing or ill-fitting pieces. Dentists faced with low-quality dental scans often encounter similar challenges. These scans serve as the foundation for diagnoses, and when the images lack clarity and accuracy, the risk of misdiagnosis increases.
At Alban City Dental & Surgical Centre, our Carestream 9600 CBCT scanner produces high-resolution, three-dimensional images of the oral and maxillofacial region. This level of detail empowers dentists to identify issues with precision, whether it’s an impacted tooth, a cyst or a hidden infection. Accurate diagnoses lead to improved treatment outcomes, providing patients with peace of mind.
Enhanced treatment planning
Dental treatment plans should be tailored to each patient’s unique needs. Subpar scans can lead to generic or less effective treatment plans. In contrast, high-quality scans allow dental professionals to craft customised, efficient and effective treatment plans.
Our 3D face scanning, intra-oral scanning and lateral cephalometry capabilities provide a comprehensive view of a patient’s oral and facial structures. This wealth of information proves invaluable in planning treatments such as orthodontics, dental implants and oral surgery. The precision offered by our scans ensures that procedures are performed with the utmost accuracy, reducing the risk of complications.
Empowered patient engagement and understanding
Dental health is a collaborative journey involving both patients and dental care providers. When patients can clearly see and understand their conditions, they become more engaged in their treatment plans. High-quality scans empower patients to make informed decisions about their oral health and treatment options.
The clarity of the images produced by our Carestream 9600 CBCT scanner fosters patient education and engagement. Patients can visualize their dental issues, understand the proposed treatments, and actively participate in their oral health journey. This shared understanding between patients and dentists leads to better treatment compliance and overall satisfaction.
In conclusion
The quality of your dental scan is not a minor detail; it forms the foundation for accurate diagnosis and effective treatment.
