Technological advances are making an impact on virtually every industry, dentistry included. With the latest technology, maxillofacial surgeons can provide their patients with high-quality, personalized services and more comfortable procedures and appliances.<\/p>\n
Curious about revolutionary new dental technology? Find out about four technological advances in this article.<\/p>\n
The advent of 3D radiology<\/a> has been a major milestone in dentistry. The technology helps dentists and maxillofacial surgeons immensely by providing a much more detailed picture of patients\u2019 mouths than 2D x-rays.<\/p>\n This new type of medical imaging is done using a CBCT (cone-beam computed tomography) machine, which takes images of the mouth with a cone-shaped beam of x-rays.<\/p>\n The 3D structure of the patient\u2019s mouth is digitally reproduced, enabling dental professionals to plan procedures with unprecedented precision.<\/p>\n These detailed images can also be used to detect a wider range of dental problems more quickly, reducing the risk of infection and other problems that otherwise would not be spotted as early.<\/p>\n Furthermore, CBCT imaging is speedier than traditional x-rays, reducing the patient\u2019s exposure to radiation and making the process safer.<\/p>\n New technologies have also significantly advanced dental implants<\/a>. There are now several different types, giving more people with a greater variety of problems access to the benefits of dental implants<\/a>.<\/p>\n For example, the all-on-4 implant technique enables patients with low bone mass to get implants without needing bone grafts<\/a>.<\/p>\n Dental implant placement techniques are also less invasive than they were before, resulting in faster healing and less discomfort.<\/p>\n Dental implant bars, which are used to connect implants to dentures, have also benefitted from technological advances in medicine. New manufacturing techniques for implant bars make them better suited to implants.<\/p>\n For example, these bars can now be manufactured from one solid piece of titanium, removing the need for welding and making the device more comfortable.<\/p>\nThe evolution of dental implant technology<\/h2>\n
