Dental CT
Dental CT is the most advanced form of imaging available to help determine accurate implant placement. Traditional CT data is reformatted into multiple images that provide accurate and comprehensive information about the patient’s anatomy. It is ideal for visualizing important internal structures, assessing bone quality and providing additional confidence with complex surgical cases. Fairfax Radiological Consultants, P.C (FRC) is the first practice to offer complete Dental CT scanning services and is the only SimPlant Master site in the region.
- FRC uses a state-of-the-art, multi-detector GE LightSpeed CT scanner, which means fast scanning and superb resolution. No IV or oral contrast is required.
- Re-formatted images allow simultaneous viewing of cross-sectional, panoramic, axial and 3-D images in an interactive setting.
- Scatter and artifact is edited out of the 3-D images.
- Clinical concerns can be fully investigated by one of our neuro-radiologists with an optional interpretation (additional fee applies).
- Scans are performed at our Woodburn location which is centrally located in Northern VA and convenient to the beltway.
- Current SimPlant customers will no longer have to send your data out-of state for formatting.
- Exclusive phone line and scheduling staff.
