Computer Guided Dental Implant Placement

Implant Success Rate : 98%

Implant Placement Made Safe and Predictable with 3-D Treatment Planning

Dental implants are becoming more popular in today’s dental society for a number of reasons. Implants are utilized to offer patients a foundation for new restorative teeth where natural teeth are missing or have been extracted. The implant offers the patient the opportunity to regain normal function of the tooth without being forced to resort to a bridge or a denture.

With the advent of the in-office I CAT Dental CAT Scan, Implant placement has become more predictable and safer leading to a 98% success for implant integration.

The CAT Scan Implant Guide allows implant placement, often without scalpels, sutures, or general anesthesia and the implant is precisely placed with the computer designed placement guide. Biohorizons Virtual Implant Placement software is used to carefully plan each case.

ANATOMY of a DENTAL IMPLANT

The tooth structure has two main sections, the root and the crown. The root is the section of the tooth that is below the gum line. A dental implant acts like a root portion of the tooth. The metal implant acts as an anchor in the jawbone.

BENEFITS OF DENTAL IMPLANTS:

· The implant will osseointegrate (bond) with the existing bone.

· The new implant will support your teeth firmly and safely.

· Your new implants are aesthetically pleasing.

· You will no longer have pain during talking or eating.

· The dental implant will prevent progressive bone atrophy.

· Implants have a proven scientific basis.
