St. Louis,MO — The St. Louis dental practice of Drs. Niesen, Faddis, Wasson, and Leppo, Brentwood Dental Group, is among the first dentist offices in St. Louis to add a 3D extraoral imaging system to its office, revolutionizing patient treatment. The CS 9000 3D Extraoral Imaging System enables the St. Louis dentists to obtain high-resolution three-dimensional (3D) images, as well as panoramic images, all with minimal radiation exposure for patients. These high-tech advancements will lead to even more precise dental treatments from the Brentwood Dental Group.
Three-dimensional and panoramic images are exceedingly helpful to dentists, in terms of diagnosing issues with teeth and gums that might not be visible to the naked eye. The CS 9000 3D Extraoral Imaging System uses cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) to image the areas being examined. This provides an especially advantageous benefit in dentistry – where proper treatment is directed through the examination of bone, including the jaw, and soft tissue, including the gums.
The American Academy of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology has recommended cone beam computed tomography to assess dental implant sites before surgery, as it offers a view of dental issues that is not possible through any other means. Beyond its application to implant dentistry, the CS 9000 3D System is useful for endodontics and other dental surgery issues.
With the addition of this state-of-the-art 3D unit, Brentwood Dental Group will greatly enhance its level of patient care. Three-dimensional technology allows the dentists to better visualize their patients’ dentition, without having to send patients for radiology scans; the CS 9000 3D System allows the St. Louis dentists to view the images from computers inside the office.
Producing an unprecedented level of anatomical detail, the CS 9000 3D System will assist the St. Louis dentists at Brentwood Dental Group diagnose dental issues more accurately than was previously possible. More accurate diagnoses will naturally lead to more effective treatments – and healthier patients.
Many industry professionals believe that the CS 9000 3D System will revolutionize dental imaging.
“The CS 9000 3D System can be considered a new category of imaging system, providing the advantages of high-resolution, relatively low radiation dose limited volume 3D imaging,” said Allan G. Farman, BDS, PhD, Professor of Radiology & Imaging Science, University of Louisville School of Dentistry.
Having highly detailed, true-to-life 3D images helps the dentists of Brentwood Dental Group provide quicker and more accurate diagnoses, improved treatment planning and better patient care. The focused field of view offered by the CS 9000 3D System means that other tissues, such as the brain and eyes, will not be unnecessarily radiated with this unit; current estimates are that CBCT technology exposes dental patients to 1/100th of the radiation they would experience during a conventional CT scan. Scanning takes about a minute, which limits exposure to radiation as well.
