WHAT IS DENTAL DIAGNOSTICS IN STOMATOLOGY?
The most modern x-ray diagnostics in the Dental Center Štimac in Zagreb are one of the crucial foundations of every dental treatment. X-ray diagnostics in the Dental Center Štimac can be performed without prior announcement, every day during the official working hours (from Monday to Friday from 07:00 to 21:00). The trained staff will welcome you, take your x-ray and within 5-10 minutes and give it to you on a CD that you can take with you.
Dental x-ray, orthopantomography, or panoramic film is one of the main diagnostic methods in dentistry. Orthopantomograph can be considered as the starting point, which displays the status of your oral cavity, or document, without which today should no longer be allowed to move into any procedures.
With the help of digital dental X-rays, the dentist can clearly see full tooth series of upper and lower jaws together with anatomical forms of surrounding tissues and structures. Dentists use radiographs for many reasons: to find hidden dental structures, malignant or benign masses, bone loss, and cavities. Dental x-rays can be used for children too, because they are adjusted to a small amount of radiation for children. The only group that should not be exposed to radiation of x-rays are expectant mothers, especially in the first trimester of pregnancy. Due to its digitization and the latest generation of technology, our X-rays have the lowest possible dose of radiation that is not considered as harmful.
3D diagnosis using CT is considered to be a growing imperative in dental medicine. Except for the perfect precision and possibilities of bone overview in three dimensions, CBCT (cone beam CT) allows the dentist to check bone density, which is considered to be the main condition for implant placement. CBCT is essential before surgery, and it can also be considered as a guide during the operation because it gives to the dentist an accurate insight into the condition of bone, maxilla, and the temporomandibular joint.
CBCT is also essential at virtual implant placement or at computer-guided implantology. Because it is possible to adjust the size of the field required for the recording, the amount of radiation is reduced compared to regular CT devices. Usage of digital recording methods achieves several advantages, such as: the smallest possible dose of radiation, the greater precision recording and easier storage of shots. Patients receive their panoramic films in the form of a CD.
3D diagnostika se z uporabo CT-ja smatra za vse večji imperativ v dentalni medicini. Razen popolne natančnosti in možnosti pregleda kosti v 3 dimenzijah, CBCT (cone beam CT) omogoča stomatologu preverjanje gostote kosti, ki se šteje za glavni pogoj pri vgradnji implantata. CBCT je nepogrešljiv pred kirurškimi posegi, prav tako pa ga lahko štejemo za vodiča med operacijo, saj stomatologu daje točen vpogled v stanje mandibularne kosti, maksile in temporomandibularnega zgloba.
CBCT je nepogrešljiv tudi pri virtualni vgradnji implantatov, oziroma pri računalniško vodeni implantologiji. V primeru če s ortopanom ni možno utrditi ali je kost primerna za vgradnjo zobnih vsadkov, implantolog bo uporabljal CT posnetek – kako bi utrdil gustoto kosti ter določil ali je pacient kandidat za vgradnjo zobnih vsadkov ter na katerih pozicijah. Glede na to, da je možno prilagajati velikost snemalnega polja, zmanjšamo količino sevanja glede na običajne CT naprave. Z uporabo digitalnih metod snemanja dosežemo prednosti, kot so: najmanjša možna doza sevanja, večja natančnost posnetka in enostavnejše shranjevanje posnetka. Svoje panoramske posnetke dobijo pacienti v obliki CD-ja.
