TechnologyCone Beam CT (CBCT): 3D Imaging at Our Practice
Understanding cone beam CT (CBCT): what 3D dental imaging really brings, its role in the implant work-up, the principle of radiation dose, and what it does not provide.
Technology
Les 12 technologies du cabinet, en quatre domaines : imagerie & diagnostic, flux numérique, chirurgie & implantologie, parodontologie & confort. Chacune expliquée sans jargon — comment elle fonctionne, ce qu'elle apporte au patient, et ses limites réelles.
TechnologyUnderstanding cone beam CT (CBCT): what 3D dental imaging really brings, its role in the implant work-up, the principle of radiation dose, and what it does not provide.
Comprendre & choisirUnderstanding digital dental X-rays: sensors that replace film, an image on screen within seconds, a lower radiation dose, easier follow-up, and what this technology does not provide.
TechnologyWhat a digital impression with an intraoral scanner is, the comfort it actually offers, its accuracy according to the literature and its limits, without turning it into a guarantee.
TechnologyWhat CAD/CAM really is, from the scan to the milled restoration, and what the literature says about the fit and survival of digital restorations — without overpromising.
Comprendre & choisirWhat 3D printing can really produce in dentistry — guides, splints, models, temporaries —, what the literature says about its accuracy, and what it does not replace.
TechnologyUnderstanding guided implant surgery: how a computer-designed guide built from the CBCT scan and the digital impression helps place the implant more precisely, and what it does not provide.
TechnologyWhat piezosurgery is, the selective bone cutting that spares soft tissue, its indications and its limits, without overstated promises.
TechnologyWhat Choukroun PRF is, how it is prepared from the patient's own blood, and what the literature suggests we can reasonably expect from it — without presenting it as a guarantee.
TechnologyWhy implant surgery takes place in a dedicated environment: the asepsis and sterilization chain, the guidelines that govern it, and the link with infection prevention — without ever claiming to eliminate risk.
PeriodonticsThe dental laser is appealing for treating the gums: less pain, antibacterial action, healing. But the evidence is nuanced: a possible adjunct, never a replacement for scaling and root planing.
Comprendre & choisirUnderstanding magnification in dentistry: what loupes and the operating microscope bring to the precision of care, particularly in endodontics, and what they do not.
Soins & préventionWhat conscious sedation with MEOPA (a nitrous oxide/oxygen mixture) actually is, who it is intended for, how a session unfolds, its contraindications and, above all, what it does not do: it is not general anesthesia.
