Dental Implant Technology

    PHOENIX, AZ, July 31, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Dental implant technology has made great strides in recent years, providing patients with unparalleled levels of effectiveness, convenience, and affordability. This is one of the main reasons why so many dentists recommend dental implants as their preferred method to replace missing teeth.

Advances in coating technology allow dental implants to better integrate with your jawbone. As a result, you will experience greater stability and durability with your dental implant. Improvements in implant shape and thread designs facilitate the insertion of the implant into your jaw, improving comfort. New component designs have increased the flexibility of implant placement, allowing implant dentists to make better use of your existing bone structure.

3D Cone Beam CAT Scan Technology

Advances in imaging technology have greatly improved the safety and precision of dental implant procedures. One of the greatest innovations in imaging technology is the 3D Cone Beam CAT scan. This technology improves the level of detail that can be achieved compared with traditional 2-dimensional x-rays. The data obtained from 3D Cone Beam CAT scans are transferred to a computer to generate a model treatment plan. The end result is an extremely precise procedure which ensures that nerves and sinuses will be avoided during the placement of your dental implant.

As an additional benefit, 3D Cone Beam CAT Scan Technology also improves the safety of your treatment by reducing your level of radiation exposure.

Teeth in an Hour

Teeth in an Hour, created by Nobel Biocare, has dramatically transformed the dental implant experience. Traditionally, it took as long as six months to complete the dental implant procedure due to the length of time it takes for the implant to properly fuse with your jawbone. This created a serious inconvenience for patients who were forced to wait for an extended period of time before they could enjoy the full benefits of their new implant.

With Teeth in an Hour, your implant dentist can complete your procedure in one office visit, reducing the time for your procedure from several months to several hours.
