Danbury, CT, April 24, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Patients in Danbury, CT with missing teeth can now receive precise computer-guided dental implant placement by respected periodontist, Dr. Richard Amato, with or without a referral. Through the use of sophisticated cone beam CT (CBCT) scans and advanced computer software, a guide can be made to improve the placement of dental implants for Danbury, CT patients and surrounding areas. This process ensures improved success of the implant, easier restoration with dental crowns and lasting results.

A CBCT scan reveals detailed information about a patient's jaw, including bone volume, location of nerves and position of tooth roots. This information is key for successful implant placement and is used to create an implant guide. By using computer-guided dental implant techniques, the implant post is placed with improved precision. The implant guides direct the periodontist in the precise angle and depth when drilling into the jaw bone to ensure accuracy. This removes any guesswork involved in surgery and improves the patient experience. Guided dental implant placement is able to be used for single, multiple and full-arch implant surgeries.

Dental implants are considered the gold standard of tooth replacement, providing both function and aesthetics to the mouth. When missing teeth are not replaced, jaw bone deterioration begins and can cause surrounding teeth to shift, a change in bite alignment, and an altered facial appearance. The implant post, when strategically positioned, stimulates the jaw bone to encourage continued growth. The implant will then be restored with a natural-looking dental crown that returns function and confidence to the patient. With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime.
