Patriots Park Dental utilizes the latest imaging technology to ensure every surgical procedure is performed with extreme accuracy. By utilizing three-dimensional scans, we create a roadmap for your recovery before the treatment even begins. This level of planning is essential for patients seeking reliable dental implants.

Modern dentistry relies on seeing what the naked eye cannot detect during a standard exam. Patriots Park Dental invests in advanced diagnostic tools to protect the health of our neighbors in Georgia. At our Grovetown office, we utilize CBCT-guided surgery, which involves a specialized X-ray that rotates around the patient to create a detailed 3D map of the jaw and teeth. We use these digital images to identify the exact location of nerves and bone structures. This technology allows Dr. Hammond to perform procedures with smaller incisions and greater predictability. Precise placement of implants means less trauma to the surrounding tissue and a much faster healing period. Patients often find that their post-operative discomfort is significantly lower when we use a guided approach. Clinical success depends on this high-resolution data to avoid complications during complex restorative tasks.

One local veteran mentioned how different this experience felt compared to older methods, noting the speed and comfort of the actual procedure.

Mandibular Repositioning and Structural Integrity

Complex oral reconstruction often requires more than just replacing a single tooth. We focus on Mandibular Repositioning, the clinical process of adjusting the lower jaw’s alignment to ensure a functional bite. When a patient has suffered from long-term tooth loss, the jawbone can shift and lose density. Our team uses 3D imaging to assess the bone’s current state before recommending any surgical changes. This biological necessity ensures that new restorations do not put undue pressure on the temporomandibular joint. Proper alignment is the foundation of oral health and systemic comfort. Collaboration between our doctors and the patient ensures the final result feels natural and stays durable for many years.

How much radiation does the 3D scan produce?

The system is designed for safety and uses significantly less radiation than a traditional medical CT scan while providing better detail for the teeth.

Does the scanning process take a long time?

You only need to remain still for about twenty seconds while the machine completes a single rotation around your head.

Is this technology necessary for a single implant?

Having a 3D view ensures the implant is placed in the thickest part of the bone, which maximizes the success of the procedure for every patient.
