As 3D imaging has continued to make its mark as an indispensable tool in the dental industry, dental professionals are increasingly leveraging the cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scan into their daily practice workflows.
Join Dr. Daniel Berant, a double board-certified specialist in periodontics and orthodontics, as he walks through the basics of CBCT, with a particular focus on periodontal and orthodontic diagnosis and treatments. He will review the benefits of this technology for a range of procedures — from placing simple single implants to reverse engineering a socket for tooth autotransplantation — and how a CBCT scan has evolved from merely a crucial first step in the diagnosis process to guiding the treatment itself.
After completing this course, participants will be able to:
- Understand and utilize the different views and capabilities of a CBCT machine, including radiation doses
- Confidently utilize CBCT to aid in the diagnosis, planning and treatment of a variety of periodontal and orthodontic conditions and diseases
- Employ the reverse engineered socket technique to complete successful tooth autotransplantation
