How Do I Know Which Dental Implant Is Right For You?

In this video, Dr. Berger reveals how we use advanced 3D cone beam imaging (CBCT) to accurately plan your dental implant procedure.

Our cone beam X-ray system (CBCT) creates detailed 3D images that let us clearly see your jawbone. Instead of the flat, sometimes unclear pictures you get from traditional X-rays, this system provides a complete look at your bone structure from every angle. That means we can accurately check your bone’s density, thickness, and length, ensuring nothing important gets missed.

These detailed measurements help us pick the best spot and size for your dental implant. By knowing exactly how thick and dense your bone is, we ensure the implant fits perfectly and is fully surrounded by strong, healthy bone. This significantly reduces the risk of complications, such as exposed implants or bone loss. We also carefully measure the distance between the top of your jawbone and sensitive structures like nerves, preventing issues caused by placing an implant too deep.

When we plan your procedure, we build in a little extra buffer space around our measurements for safety. This cautious approach helps your implant integrate smoothly with your bone, putting less stress on the area during and after surgery. As a result, you’ll likely experience faster healing, less discomfort afterward, and a stable, lasting implant.
