Implant Planning After Sinus Lift
We also have the high-resolution Sirona Galileos 3D CT scanner as a 3D imaging solution for our patients. This machine produces both a three-dimensional image and a cross-sectioned view of your mouth that is far more accurate than the traditional two-dimensional views of other x-rays. The high-resolution scans allow our doctors to clearly see facial anatomy, including nerves and the sinus cavity, as well as helping to determine bone density, which aids in planning dental implant cases.
