Artificial teeth will not get out of a series of

Worry about uneven teeth, patients will no longer traumatized jaw is now the exact location of each artificial tooth in the mouth is able to calculate a computer program.

As the head of the department of radiation diagnosis First MGMU name IMSechenov Academician Sergei Ternovoy, now the majority of dentists are working, so to say, blindly: intraosseous implants inserted into patients teeth only on the basis of a conventional X-ray that gives a picture of the jaw in only one plane . This result often causes serious problems. Improperly installed implants do not allow physicians to deliver quality new crowns, teeth may eventually get the curve. In addition, inaccurate preparation for surgery can lead to serious complications during the surgery, such as damage to the walls of the maxillary sinuses and nasal cavities.

Now with the help of computer tomography experts first medal reliably determine the state of the jaw of the patient before surgery. In particular, the measured thickness, height and bone density, and after the doctors using a special program to virtually simulate a computer course of the operation. The specialists choose the exact size of the required implant location and angle of installation. Then the patient is made individual patterns of the jaw (called plastic caps). These caps have holes through which the patient during surgery implants are set exactly at the intended place. Therefore, the risk of medical error is reduced to zero.
