Oral and Facial Surgery Center LTD is enhancing treatment planning and patient care with the advanced digital imaging technology of the i–CAT® . The i–CAT is a Cone Beam 3–D dental imaging system. Cone Beam technology is quickly advancing the dental industry’s leading approach to treatment planning and diagnosis. With a quick scan around the patient’s head, Oral & Facial Surgery Center, can now view 3–D patient anatomy to accomplish, more precise evaluation for predictable treatment results in shorter appointment times for the patient.

Dentistry’s Most Accurate Imaging

Oral & Facial Surgery Center has chosen this technology to enhance treatment care for patients. Using the i–CAT scanner’s high-resolution images, our Oral Surgeons, obtain highly accurate and detailed three-dimensional views of all anatomies such as bone, teeth, tooth orientation, tooth and nerve relation, airways and sinuses. This 3–D dental imaging is used for several treatments from implant planning, TMJ, and airway analysis to orthodontic and oral surgery planning, as well as to detect pathologies such as cysts and tumors.

Safety and Convenience for Patients

At Oral & Facial Surgery Center, our Oral Surgeons can now take an immediate scan for patients with lower radiation dosage and without the inconvenience of sending them to a hospital. Once the scan is complete, our surgeons are able to share an immediate visual diagnosis to help patients truly visualize and better understand their treatment options. These preoperative scans are easily shared with other doctors and help perform less invasive procedures through increased precision; thus reducing risks for patients.
