We offer a comprehensive array of treatments to help you and your family enjoy good oral health, including oral surgery to address complex oral health concerns. To ensure optimal treatment and a comfortable experience, we will plan care in detail with digital imaging. At your Metairie, LA, oral surgery clinic, we can provide digital x-rays, 3D imaging, and more to help ensure treatment with precision.
Digital X-Rays
Digital x-rays provide incredibly detailed images of your roots and oral structures, while using 90% less radiation than traditional options. We use the panoramic x-ray machine, Panorex, which doesn’t require uncomfortable bite wings at all. Instead, you simply place your chin on a special rest while a machine circles your head. The process is quick and comfortable, and the panoramic images allow us to see the entirety of your teeth and jaw. We see the upper and lower ones in the same image! The process takes seconds, and we can see high-definition images right away, no need to wait for development, so you spend less time in the chair and obtain a more accurate diagnosis in the process.
3D Imaging
Our team also offers imaging and treatment planning with cone-beam 3D technology. These offer complete three-dimensional images of the entirety of your upper and lower jaw, as well as sinus cavities, nerve tissues, and blood vessels. We can then plan more complex treatments, like tooth extractions and dental implant placement, with greater precision.
Keeping Electronic Records
Our team doesn’t rely on mounds of paperwork or stored records and information. We’ve gone digital! You can submit your insurance and health history information before you even arrive, making your first visit a lot shorter. We can also easily transmit your information to specialists and other practices as needed, saving you time and headache. No need to waste time in the waiting room filling out paperwork, we can simplify the process and make it more convenient for you.
If you have any questions about how we use advanced imaging technology to make your treatment easier and more accurate, or to plan complex oral health issues, such as tooth replacement, then please reach out to our team today to learn more. We want to make your visit a positive one, so you don’t lose time at work or home, and so you also enjoy treatment with better accuracy and precision.
