Many times in planning for dental implants a Cat Scan is required. A
medical grade Cat Scan is usually completed at a radiology center. A
newer form of Cat Scan uses cone beam technology to produce a very
accurate image with greatly reduced radiation. Overall, I feel that
this cone beam Cat Scan should now be the standard of care to produce
an exceptional image at a greatly reduced radiation exposure to our
patients.
We currently use digital xrays throughout our office, and it
has become the standard of care to produce these images with as low a
dose of radiation as possible.
