Cone Beam in Kénitra: understanding 3D dental scans
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 & equipment du cabinet — Kénitra
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.
This page presents the practice's equipment, grouped into four areas. Each page explains how the tool works, what it changes for you during care, and its limits. You do not need to know these names to be treated. They are explained here so that you know what happens during your care, and why.
Imaging and diagnosis. Cone Beam is a three-dimensional X-ray. It shows the height and width of the bone and the position of the nerves and sinuses, which helps to prepare an implant or surgery. Digital radiography displays the image on a screen, where it can be enlarged and shown to you. For you, this area is about seeing what the eye cannot see.
Digital workflow. A digital impression replaces the paste with a scanner that records your teeth in three dimensions. CAD/CAM, meaning computer-aided design and manufacturing, is used to design and then make a crown or prosthesis from that model. 3D printing produces custom guides and parts. For you, this area concerns how impressions are taken and how your prostheses are made.
Surgery and implantology. Guided surgery uses a guide, prepared from the 3D images, to place the implant where the plan says. Piezosurgery works the bone with ultrasound, which helps to spare the gum and nearby tissues. PRF is a concentrate prepared from your own blood, used when it is indicated to support healing. The dedicated surgical room is reserved for procedures and organised for asepsis, meaning protection against germs.
Periodontology, comfort and precision. A laser can be used in some gum treatments. The operating microscope magnifies the treated area to see small details, for example inside a tooth. Conscious sedation with MEOPA, a mix of oxygen and nitrous oxide that you breathe through a small mask, helps some anxious people relax while staying awake.
A technology is a means, not a promise of a result. The result depends on your situation, the diagnosis, the treatment plan and the follow-up. These pages inform you but do not replace an examination. The practice offers an assessment to decide with you what is useful in your case. The assessment does not commit you to any treatment.

The digital impression: the intraoral scanner
What 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.

CAD/CAM: Digital Design and Prosthetics
What 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.

Choukroun PRF: Healing With Your Own Platelets
What 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.

The Dedicated Surgical Suite: Asepsis and Safety
Why 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.

Dental Laser in Periodontics: Caring for the Gums
The 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.

Dental Operating Microscope: Seeing More, Treating Better
Understanding magnification in dentistry: what loupes and the operating microscope bring to the precision of care, particularly in endodontics, and what they do not.

Afraid of the Dentist? Conscious Sedation (MEOPA) Explained
What 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.
